What is BOTOX®?

BOTOX® is one of the most widely used injectables, known for its ability to smooth away lines and creases. Initially developed for eye muscle conditions, BOTOX® has become a top anti-aging treatment. Dr. Allan Wulc, founder of W Cosmetic Surgery, was involved in the early clinical trials of BOTOX® (then called Oculinum) and was among the first in the aesthetic industry to recognize its wrinkle-reducing potential. Today, BOTOX® and other neurotoxins like Dysport® and Xeomin® are available at W Cosmetic Surgery™, performed with a rare level of knowledge and precision and an injection technique that produces superior results.

How Does BOTOX® Work?

BOTOX® is a neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for wrinkles. By blocking nerve signals to targeted muscles, BOTOX® allows the skin to relax and smooth, reducing the appearance of frown lines, crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles, neck bands, and more. BOTOX® treatments in the Philadelphia & Plymouth Meeting, PA area at W Cosmetic Surgery™ are quick and minimally invasive and produce an age-defying change that looks natural, more youthful, and refreshed—without looking overdone.

What Facial Areas Can BOTOX® Treat?

BOTOX® for Forehead Creases

Smooth away horizontal forehead lines with BOTOX®. By relaxing the muscles responsible for these creases, BOTOX® helps create a smoother, more youthful appearance while maintaining natural expressions.

BOTOX® for Frown Lines

Frown lines between the brows, or “11s,” are the vertical creases that develop between the eyebrows. BOTOX® softens these lines by preventing the muscle contractions that cause them, giving you a more relaxed and refreshed look.

BOTOX® for Crow’s Feet

Target the fine lines around your eyes with BOTOX®. This treatment relaxes the muscles at the outer corners of your eyes, smoothing wrinkles and giving you a brighter, more youthful appearance.

BOTOX® for the Neck

Sagging in the neck is often caused by the platysma muscle, which can be treated with small doses of BOTOX®. This technique relaxes the muscles and helps improve the contour of the neck and jawline, reducing sagging and creating a more youthful profile. Dr. Wulc was among the first to report on BOTOX® for neck treatments in the early 1990s.

BOTOX® Lip Flip

The BOTOX® lip flip is a subtle treatment that enhances the shape of the lips by relaxing the muscles around the mouth, creating a slightly fuller, more pronounced appearance. It is often combined with dermal fillers for optimal results. Despite its popularity, we don’t think the lip flip alone provides exciting results but get exceptional results with filler alone.

BOTOX® for Jawline Slimming

BOTOX® can slim and contour the jawline by relaxing the masseter muscles responsible for the look of a square or heavy jaw appearance. This treatment creates a more refined, feminine jawline.

BOTOX® FAQ

How long does BOTOX® last?

Results from BOTOX® typically last three to four months, depending on factors such as age, skin type, and treatment area. Regular treatments are recommended to maintain the smooth, youthful appearance BOTOX® provides.

Is BOTOX® safe?

BOTOX® is FDA-approved and considered safe when administered by a skilled professional. Dr. Wulc’s extensive experience ensures you receive a precise treatment with minimal risk. While side effects are rare, they may include mild bruising, swelling, or temporary muscle weakness.

Does it hurt?

Most of our patients say that the discomfort of a Botox® injection is minimal. We utilize vibration, cooling, and, rarely, topical creams applied prior to the treatment to reduce the sensation associated with the injection. Dr. Wulc has published and presented nationally on how to make these injections less painful.

What downtime is associated with Botox® treatment?

There is no downtime associated with Botox®–that’s one of its strongest points! You can expect to see its benefits in 5-7 days. We suggest returning for a touch-up so we can assess its benefits approximately 2-3 weeks following your injection.
