BOTOX® is generally considered a comfortable treatment. Some clients report feeling a quick pinch or a slight sting when injected. BOTOX® is injected using very tiny needles. It's a quick and easy treatment that lasts no more than 15 minutes. If you are concerned about any discomfort, your injector at NIMA will offer you numbing cream, ice, and advanced techniques to ensure maximum comfort. Trust us, the results will be worthwhile!

BOTOX® is an extensively researched cosmetic treatment. Backed by several hundred studies, a successful track record and FDA clearance, its efficiency has been long established. Botox is one of the safest and most effective cosmetic procedures.

BOTOX® and Dermal Fillers are two different types of injectables. Both are injected in the skin with a needle. The difference between Botox and Dermal Fillers is that Botox is used to reduce fine lines and wrinkles by paralyzing the muscles, fillers on the other hand are used to fill in wrinkles.

As with any injectable, Individual results may vary.* Most patients see their anti-aging results within 48 to 72 hours of the treatment being performed. A patient could enjoy the amazing anti-aging effects of BOTOX® for 2 to 4 months post treatment. Botox's ability to prevent expression lines from forming when patients use it as a preventative treatment has been supported by a recent study. BOTOX® is now more popular among young adults in their 20s and early 30s who want to prevent the onset of early signs of aging, prolong and preserve their youthful appearance well into their 40s and 50s.

At NIMA, we care about your overall experience. An optional numbing cream may be applied topically to the treatment area. The injector will then draw few marks on the injection sites. With a very thin needle, a small injection is made into the treatment area. You may experience temporary discomfort such as redness, bruising or soreness around the injection sites, but this should clear up rather quickly.
