Botox®
Botox Cosmetic Treatments at UniQ Laser Center
What is Botox®?
At UniQ Laser Center in Watertown, Saugus, Needham and Canton, MA, Botox® Cosmetic is a popular treatment for wrinkle reduction and facial contouring. This versatile injectable is also used to alleviate symptoms associated with certain medical conditions.
Botox® is an FDA-approved neuromodulator that can be injected in small, precise amounts by our expert providers to achieve a range of aesthetic benefits. It is most commonly used to treat and prevent facial wrinkles and refine the contours of the face. Qualified providers, like those at UniQ Laser Center, can also utilize Botox® to reduce discomfort associated with a number of medical conditions.
How Long Do the Results of Botox® Treatments Last?
While individual results may vary, the typical duration of Botox® results is around three months. Retreatments can be scheduled at regular intervals to maintain results.
What Is the Cost of Botox®?
The price associated with your personalized Botox® treatment plan will depend on several factors. The total cost will reflect the number of Botox® units needed, which is affected by the type and severity of your symptoms and your overall treatment goals.
What to Expect During a Botox® Treatment
Botox® treatments are performed in-office at our Watertown, Saugus, Needham and Canton locations. After cleansing the treatment area and determining the ideal injection sites, our expert injector will perform the necessary injections for achieving your desired results. A topical numbing cream can be applied to minimize discomfort while the injections are administered.
What to Expect After Botox® Injections
You will be able to resume most of your normal activities the same day as your treatment. To prevent the product from migrating and promote optimal results, it is important that you adhere to the following aftercare instructions:
– Remain in an upright position for four hours
– Refrain from rubbing or massaging the treated area for 12 hours

What Can Botox® Treat?
Forehead Lines
Botox® can prevent or treat the wrinkles and lines on your forehead, so you can enjoy a more youthful and refreshed appearance across the upper face. The forehead is often treated along with scowl lines to ensure a balanced and natural-looking result.
Scowl Lines
Scowl lines, or frown lines, are the wrinkles that form between your eyebrows, also called “11’s”, which are usually visible when furrowing the eyebrows. A quick treatment of Botox® can help keep these wrinkles at bay.
Bunny Lines
Bunny lines are a nickname for the wrinkles you get when scrunching your nose. A quick neurotoxin treatment can fade those lines, leaving behind smooth, wrinkle-free skin.
Brow Lift
Botox® can help lift the eyebrows, making you look more youthful and refreshed. A Botox® brow lift can also be an excellent non-surgical option for a “fox eye” lift.
Crow's Feet
Crow’s feet are the lines that branch out from the outer corners of the eyes. A few units of Botox® can help smooth these fine lines to rejuvenate the eye area.
Lip Lines / Lip Flip
Botox® can be used to get rid of those pesky fine lines surrounding your smile. We also offer a Botox® Lip Flip treatment, which provides subtle lip enhancement without dermal filler.
Dimpled Chin
Chin dimpling can be effectively remedied with Botox®. This treatment will smooth the skin of the chin, giving you a more youthful appearance.
Platysma
The platysma muscles are the vertical cords that run down your neck and become more visible when clenching the jaw. These lines can be softened with a treatment of Botox®.
Hyperhidrosis
Do you suffer from excessive sweating? Botox® is FDA-approved to treat excessive perspiration in areas like the palms, soles of the feet, and underarms.
Masseter (TMJ)
Botox® can help relax the masseter muscle, providing relief from TMJ symptoms and even contributing to facial slimming with higher doses. Masseter Botox® is one of the easiest and most effective ways to achieve a heart-shaped face!
Headache Relief
Botox® can be injected into specific areas of the face, scalp, and neck to relieve muscular tension, leading to a decrease in headaches and migraines.

FAQs
How Does Botox® Work for Facial Rejuvenation?
When strategically injected into facial muscles, Botox® minimizes the appearance of moderate-to-severe wrinkles caused by repetitive movements. The active ingredient in Botox®, botulinum toxin type A, works to temporarily hold the muscles in a state of relaxation, so they cannot contract and cause the overlying skin to fold or wrinkle.
When combined with a high-quality skincare regimen, Botox® also acts as a preventive measure against new lines and wrinkles, reducing the necessity for more invasive procedures. Our highly skilled UniQ Laser Center injectors will provide personalized solutions tailored to your unique goals.
