Botox® in Atlanta
WHAT IS BOTOX® COSMETIC?
Botox® Cosmetic is the leading FDA-approved injectable treatment to temporarily soften crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead lines in men and women over the age of 18. Botox® is developed from type A botulism toxin and works to temporarily reduce the underlying muscle activity that causes dynamic wrinkles in the forehead and upper face.

I received a botox treatment from Dr. Kelly and I love my results. It was my first time receiving injectables - Dr. Kelly thoroughly explained the procedure and even recommended treatments he thought would be good for me.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The best candidates for Botox® Cosmetic treatments are those aged 18 years and older who are looking to smooth our stubborn dynamic lines and wrinkles on the upper face. Persons under the age of 18, as well as those who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a history of severe allergies, or keloid scarring, or who are experiencing a skin issue in the area for treatment should not receive Botox®. Our Certified Physician Assistant can help you determine if you are a good candidate for Botox® treatment. Call us or schedule your complimentary consultation today.
Before your first injectable treatment, you will need to schedule a consultation with Dr. Kelly or our medical injector at SkinLab Atlanta to evaluate your area of concern, review your medical history to ensure that you are a good candidate, and clear you for treatment. Often, your treatment can be done on the same day as your consultation. During your Botox® treatment, your injector will perform a skin cleansing and determine your injection sites. Next, the Botox® neurotoxin will be injected into the predetermined areas utilizing a small needle. Botox® treatments may feel like a small pinch during the injections into the skin, however, they are not considered painful. Your total treatment may take between 15 and 30 minutes depending on a number of factors including how many areas are being treated during your visit.
Following Botox® Cosmetic treatments, you could experience some temporary side effects such as mild redness, swelling, or bruising. There is no downtime required after your Botox® treatment, and you can easily return to work or attend social events on the same day. You will begin to see improvement in wrinkles, and fine lines within 24 to 48 hours, and you can expect to see full improvement within 30 days. Botox® and other Neurotoxin treatments typically last for 3-6 months before another treatment is required.
