Who can receive treatment with BOTOX®  Cosmetic?

To determine if it's safe for you to receive BOTOX® Cosmetic, it's important that you provide your full medical history to Dr. Orsburn.  This includes all prescribed and over-the-counter medications, herbals, vitamins and supplements you may take.

How does it work?

Injection of BOTOX® Cosmetic into the muscles used for frowning and squinting temporarily reduces muscle activity, resulting in a decrease in the appearance of lines and wrinkles.  

How long does it take for the medication to work?

You may begin to notice results within 24-48 hours after treatment.  Full results will be evident around 2 weeks after treatment.  Your “after” photos will be taken at your 2 week follow-up appointment.

How long do the effects of BOTOX® Cosmetic last?

The desired effects from BOTOX® Cosmetic injection generally last 3-4 months.

Where can BOTOX® Cosmetic be injected?

This medication is used in adult patients for the temporary improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe lines between the eyes [the “W” frown area], beside the eyes [“crow's feet”], and on the forehead.

Why would a holistic practice offer BOTOX®?  


In short, because you are a unique individual. Dr. Orsburn offers the option of BOTOX® Cosmetic to her patients desiring a more dramatic temporary improvement in their appearance as well as those who are unable to commit to the full regimen of cosmetic acupuncture.  After BOTOX® Cosmetic injections to the face, body acupuncture treatments may be received as soon as the next day.




Could I have both BOTOX® Cosmetic and Mei Zen treatments?

Yes, and Dr. Orsburn is happy to discuss how to best coordinate these treatments in your specific case.

What is Dr. Orsburn's experience with BOTOX®?

Dr. Orsburn received extensive training during and after residency for the proper use of BOTOX®.  In addition to injecting BOTOX®  for cosmetic purposes, she has experience using the medication for the treatment of medical conditions such as limb spasticity and cervical dystonia.

Are there any potential side effects or risks to BOTOX®?

As with any medication or procedure, there can certainly be unwanted side effects.  These will be addressed in depth during your appointment.
