What is BOTOX?
Whenever you look at your face in a mirror, are you distressed about wrinkles and creases present on your forehead and in the delicate skin near your eyes? Referred to as dynamic lines, these skin issues develop from repeated facial movements, such as frowning, squinting, and smiling. As men and women become more mature, these wrinkles and lines ultimately stay put and can make them appear worn down. Thanks to BOTOX Cosmetic treatments, we may be able to temporarily stop the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines, Crow's feet, and forehead creases. BOTOX is a specialized type A strain of botulinum toxin. It functions to temporarily relax the muscles that assist with those contractions, letting the overlying skin become smoother on its own. At Mid Cities Direct Primary Care, our team is proud to provide BOTOX injections as a nonsurgical aesthetic solution to help patients achieve a more youthful, renewed result. Our team welcomes you to contact our facility in Grapevine, TX, to further explore BOTOX treatments!

Who is a candidate for BOTOX?
A consultation is necessary to determine if BOTOX is the best solution for your unique cosmetic concerns. During this time, Mid Cities Direct Primary Care will assess your medical history to ensure that you are not allergic to any of the ingredients in BOTOX. You should also be in generally good health without any active skin infections present in the treatment area. Our goal is to help you look and feel your best in the safest and most effective ways possible.
How Does BOTOX Work?
During your first consult at Mid Cities Direct Primary Care, a member of our team will provide a cosmetic assessment to decide which areas require treatment. Given that BOTOX is provided during a fast, in-office procedure, your injections can often be carried out during the same appointment. The formulation will be placed into the designated areas of your forehead or upper face using a fine-gauge needle. The treatment itself takes around 5 – 10 minutes to carry out, and many individuals experience only minor discomfort (like a pinprick or pinching sensation). Following your session, you are welcome to leave our Grapevine, TX practice and get right back to your day.
BOTOX FAQ
How many BOTOX treatments will I likely need?
The number of BOTOX injections required will differ according to individual concerns and the severity and depth of your wrinkles and lines. Dr. Kara Farley or Dr. James Terry can determine the ideal number of BOTOX units based on your desired treatment outcomes and whether you want to treat the brow area, forehead, or Crow's feet. To refresh your aesthetic outcomes, our team could recommend having BOTOX services every 3 – 4 months at Mid Cities Direct Primary Care.
Are there comparable aesthetic injections?
BOTOX is a specific type of wrinkle relaxer that competes with a myriad of other comparable brands, like XEOMIN®, Jeuveau™, and Dysport®. All of these wrinkle relaxer options use type A botulinum toxin; however, they are each created uniquely to meet certain problems.
What is the difference between dermal fillers and wrinkle relaxers?
While wrinkle relaxers, like BOTOX Cosmetic, are provided to minimize facial lines by temporarily freezing your muscle engagement, fillers are a different collection of aesthetic formulations that improve facial volume. Dermal fillers are intended to volumize gaunt-looking areas and soften static wrinkles.
