BOTOX Injections
BOTOX® can be injected into muscles in the forehead and around the eyes where expression lines typically occur. The transmission of nerve impulses at the injection sites, muscle and skin are smoothed and tightened for youthful results.
Patient comfort is paramount for Dr. Chung who personally performs all her injectable procedures. Discomfort during this procedure is very minimal, often compared to an insect bite. The needle used is quite small and delivers precise quantities of BOTOX to the injection site. The procedure itself takes approximately 10 minutes, and alcohol and exercise should be abandoned for 24 hours following your procedure to prevent swelling or redness.
BOTOX Recovery
We make it a priority to support you during your recovery. Dr. Chung believes in ensuring that her patients feel informed and empowered about their after care.
With BOTOX treatment there is no real downtimes. Common after effects may ne stinging or slight bruising around the injection site, however these usually fade very quickly. It usually takes 3-7 days for BOTOX® to begin to take effect, with final results taking up to two weeks. Lasting on average of 4 months, to maintain your results, you will need to repeat treatments every 3 to 6 months
Dr. Chung's Philosophy
Plastic surgery is a very personal decision and can get overwhelming at times to sort through options that are currently available. As a fellowship trained aesthetic plastic surgeon, I have the knowledge and experience to guide patients during this process. My goal is to listen, understand your objectives, and advise you in selecting a procedure that is right for you. As a woman surgeon, I am compassionate, warm, and honest. You will leave educated and confident that the end result will be beautiful and natural, not overdone.
I truly believe that to be a successful aesthetic plastic surgeon, one has to become the patient’s lifelong aesthetic provider. From non-invasive procedures to surgery, our journey begins together.
