70% of Novato reviewers said Botox was worth it
I had Botox for the first time with Dr. Fan and was quite impressed with how much time he spent with me. I also usually tend to have providers drop my brows. This makes my eyes look smaller. Dr, Fan listened, and DID NOT drop my brows at all! This is amazing! I am very happy!! more
“Botox is Not for Me - San Francisco, CA”
I had botox to enhance my looks but it did the opposite. I got bags under my eyes 5 days after the botox was injected. I called my doctor and he said he never heard of that before. I went to see him and he told me to take benadryl and claritin. It did nothing except I had the worst anxiety in my life. I am a high strung person but do not suffer from anxiety. Thankfully, the anxiety only lasted... more
“Botox - Paralyzed Half my Smile -...”
I have been getting botox for years from a PS but moved to a new area and went to a new doc. This new doc came highly recommended and I have seen her for 2 years without a glitch. This last time, however she got a little happy with the injections and I wound up losing my smile. Since I had gotten Juvaderm in my frown lines also, I was hoping that it was just the swelling that was causing... more
“Excellent Doctor! True Artistry -...”
When I went in for my initial consult, I asked for dermafillers. Dr. M discussed the pros and cons with me and recommended that I try Botox instead. Not only did this procedure work, but it saved me a lot of money! I plan to go back for a touch up soon. more
“Morpheus Medical Aesthetics - Santa...”
I finally decided to take my sister's advice and get rid of the "11's" and the three deep lines in my forehead. I had trepidation about shooting Botulinum toxin into my body, but Dr. C fully explained what Botox (denatured) protein really is and does and put me at ease. Now that the lines are gone, I don't ever want them back! The look is totally natural (this is due to... more
I have been getting regular botox for almost a year now. I love the result on the deep frown lines, however was hoping for a relaxing of the muscles over time, I have unfortunately not experienced any and continue to return every three months. One problem I have had since beginning treatment is extremely bad nodular acne only on my forhead, generally in the areas treated! I have talked to my... more
“I Look Much Better but Totally...”
I saw some photos in a women's magazine a couple of years ago that made me want to start botox. The photos were of twin women around 35 years old. One of them had been doing botox for 5 years in her forehead and the other had not. The difference was significant. The botox twin looked natural, normal, good. The other twin looked natural too but she had noticeable forehead more
“Botox (In Upper Forehead) Works- but...”
I got Boxot 8 days ago from a trusted friend who is a nurse and works at a med spa. I got 12 units in the upper part of my forehead. Ever since then, I have been having anxiety, plus strange feelings in my face and in the muscles around me ears and below my eyes. The injections were not near these areas at all, but for some reason there are strange sensations in these places. I have also been... more
“High Quality Botox Treatments for...”
Pro: the stuff works!Con: it isn't cheapI did it because my forhead wrinkles aged me significantly; the Botox treatment really smoothed them out.Importantly, my doctor is careful not to over-do it, which is a real risk. She does it right and the result is a natural, improved look. more

I wanted to address forehead wrinkles, a wrinkle between my brows, crowsfeet and hoped to see my eyebrows raised a bit.My right eye is pulled too tight laterally -- the edge of my right eyebrow is further away from t more

“Worth It! Even a Scaredy Cat Like Me...”
I recently received Botox to my forehead…. I was of course scared and very hesitant as I am with these things, but notice a tired look in my face. I am only 29 and was not sure I should worry about it but it did bug me so I figured I would just have a consultation. My Doc was great not pressuring at all and very informative. One thing I like is that botox would prevent wrinkles as... more
