How long does BTA treatment last?

 It generally takes 3-7 days before you begin to see the effects of your BTA treatment and the effects will generally last between 3 to 4 months. 

 

Is BTA safe?

BTA is very well tolerated and safe when properly administered for non-invasive cosmetic treatments. The amount of BTA used for cosmetic purposes is very small and applied to targeted muscles in the face. While BTA does “paralyze” the muscle, the effects are temporary and do not cause permanent problems. 

 

Where should I use BTA?

BTA can be used to treat any wrinkle in the face caused by the muscle actions under the skin. The most common places targeted include the forehead, glabella (“elevens”), around the eyes, and lip lines. It can also be used to raise the eyebrows and the corners of the mouth (to make it look like you have more of a smile instead of a frown).
