Botox is an injectable neuromodulator used to calm forehead wrinkles, frown lines, and other common types of lines caused by muscle movements when you make certain expressions. When injected into targeted muscles, Botox blocks nerve signals, helping the muscles relax so that wrinkles can smooth out and lay flat. Each Botox treatment is personalized to your needs and can provide natural-looking results that last for three to four months at a time. Botox is also an excellent wrinkle-preventative.
Botox can be used to treat areas of the face where dynamic wrinkles commonly occur, which are caused by repetitive muscle movements. When considering treatments with Botox Kirkland patients that come to us can expect the following key areas to be treated:
Dermal fillers are a type of injectable treatment that helps you refresh your look by building volume under the skin to correct lines, creases, and age-related hollowing. They offer a highly effective and natural-looking method for smoothing out deep wrinkles, sculpting facial contours, enhancing the volume and shapeliness of the lips, and restoring volume on the backs of the hands for a more youthful look. Our experienced aesthetic injectors use high-quality fillers from the Juvederm and Revanesse lines and will work alongside you to customize your treatment to your needs.
Juvéderm by Allergan is one of the most popular hyaluronic-acid-based fillers on the market. It is designed to replenish lost volume, smooth out creases and hollows, and enhance facial contours with natural-looking results that last for several months to a year or longer.
At Sound Medical Weight Loss in Kirkland Dermal Fillers like Revanesse® Versa™ are available. Its smooth texture is ideal for filling in lines, hollows, and creases while retaining the softness and mobility of your features and facial expressions.
When considering treatments with dermal fillers Kirkland patients who visit us find injectable dermal fillers to be an easy and effective way to address several common concerns and achieve a refreshed look:
Most injectable procedures take between 30 minutes and an hour, making treatment easy to fit into your schedule. At our practice in Kirkland Botox and Dermal Fillers are expertly administered. The first step is always a discussion with your aesthetic specialist to define your goals and collaborate on a personalized treatment plan. We educate you about your options so that you can make informed decisions. When you are ready, your provider will apply a topical numbing cream to reduce the sensation of the injections. You may feel a mild pinch as the injections are carefully administered in key areas to yield your desired result. Once this process is complete, you will be cleared to return to most of your normal activities immediately.
Post-procedure recovery and aftercare following an injectable treatment, such as Botox, are typically simple. It’s normal to have mild swelling, tenderness, bruising, or redness where the injections were placed. For the first 24 to 48, you should avoid heavy exercise, excess heat, and alcohol, which can exacerbate post-procedure swelling. Your aesthetic specialist will go over the aftercare and recovery guidelines for your specific procedure in detail, helping you care for the treatment area and achieve the best possible results.
Results from Botox injections typically become noticeable within three to seven days after treatment, with the full effects usually appearing within one to two weeks. Results from HA dermal fillers usually show up immediately, but it may take a few days to a week or two to see their full benefits. Botox typically provides benefits for three to four months, while dermal fillers can last longer—from six to eighteen months. Maintenance treatments can be scheduled as needed to sustain the benefits of your treatment.

Results from Botox usually last approximately three to four months. You can schedule touch-up treatments as needed to maintain your results.
Within the first few days after your Botox treatment, you likely will begin to see an improvement in the treatment area. These results may continue to improve for a few weeks.
You will notice an immediate plumping effect following your dermal filler injections. As the hyaluronic acid goes to work, these effects will develop further, and your results will continue to improve, with your final results becoming visible after one to two weeks.
Most dermal fillers provide rejuvenating benefits for between six and eighteen months, with the timeframe for results depending on the type of filler used, the area where the filler is injected, and individual rates of metabolism. Your Sound Medical Weight Loss provider will go over how long the results of your personal treatment plan are likely to last at your consultation. Fillers are a long-lasting rejuvenation method that can be touched up as needed or desired.
