Where do you put the Botox?
The frown line between the eyebrows is caused by the action of a muscled called the corrugator. You can feel this muscle as a thickening just below the inside of your eyebrows, when you purposefully make yourself frown. Injecting Botox directly into the corrugator muscle stops your ability to draw your eyebrows together when you frown, resulting in the gradual fading of the frown line.

When does Botox start to work, and how long does it last?
The results of Botox treatment start to appear in three to ten days. The treated muscles will gradually regain their action over three to five months. When the frown line starts to reappear, a simple repeat treatment is all that is necessary to maintain the desired results. Please contact us for more details.

Who can perform Botox treatment?
Botox must be performed under the direction of a physician. Dr Day is trained, certified, and experienced.

Is treatment effective for men and women?
Yes.

How much time does a Botox treatment take?
A few minutes only.

Is the treatment painful?
There is very little discomfort. Often, patients do not feel the tiny injection at all.

Who injects the botox?
All botox injections are done at our medical centre by Dr Joanna Day herself. We do not allow nurses or other "injectors" to perform the procedure, simply because we want to ensure you have the safest and most effective treatment available.
