The average price for botox 3 areas is between £250-£350 in the UK. In the US Botox cost is calculated on dose rather than areas. The cost may varies according to practitioner experience and volume of treatments performed.

Botox in London can be offered by a range of practitioners from doctors, nurses as well as pharmacists. At Cosmedocs we only have cosmetic doctors who are botox trainers also.

Botox wears off at approximately 20-25% a month. On average, patients repeat the procedure in 4-6 months. The benefit of botox can be seen after only one treatment.

Botox treatments performed by trained physicians are relatively safe. Common side effects of Botox injections are mild pain and swelling at the site of injection for 10-20 minutes. Rare side effects include big bruises and nearby muscles being affected.

This depends on personal aesthetic preferences and goals. Individuals who are preventing lines would require it less frequently than ones reversing already set lines.

Alcohol and exercise should be avoided on the day after your botox injection treatments.

At CosmeDocs we prefer individuals to have continuity with a doctor and where possible will book you with the same practitioner.

As muscles regain their strength movement returns. Individuals will find that habitual expressions are reduced with repeated botox treatments.

Botox is approved for patients who are 18 years and older. However, our experts suggest considering botox for preventing lines and wrinkles from the mid 20s onwards.

Botox is a temporary drug. The side effects will subside over time as the drug wears off.

A more natural appearance can be obtained by using lower doses of toxin such as baby botox injection. It is worth noting here that botox is frequently used to reduce excessive sweating. Hence, shiny foreheads after botox are rarely due to perspiration.

Botox injections work well on ‘dynamic’ lines; wrinkles that occur when muscles are contracted. By the late 20s most individuals have lines at rest. Then the procedure is no longer for prevention but reversal of lines.

In general, botox is the preferred option for wrinkles formed primarily by active muscle movement. For deeper lines and areas of volume loss, dermal fillers are usually recommended. Our practitioner will examine and recommend you in detail the cause of your lines and a suitable treatment plan.
