“Meh.. - San Francisco, CA”

I got botox for the wrinkles in my forehead. I have a ginormous forehead and have had lines there since I was a kid. Its been 3 days since I got the botox. My forehead has taken on a plastic-like appearance. Its definitely less wrinkly.. but in a weird kind of way.. hard to explain. I don't hate the results, but not sure I would do it again. I think I'll stick with fillers and laser resurfacing. more

“I Look Fantastic! - San Francisco, CA”

I can sum up this reveiw in a few short sentences. I was turned on to Dr. Echavez by a couple of very close friends of mine. We were at lunch and were talking about cosmetic (botox) procedures that they had done within the past year. The two of them looked rested and fresh. That's when I thought, " I want to look rested as well." I asked for the number and made an appointment that very day. A... more

“7 Great Experiences, One Mishap -...”

To ease forehead and scowl lines. Have been doing this for 10 years now. A great MD - Years of experience and achieves natural, discrete results. I'm one of the fortunate; treatments usually last 9 to 12 months for me. This proved to be a dismaying disadvantage 2 years ago, however: A tiny amount of Botox was ejected from a site by a skin contraction after the doctor had injected it. He'd... more

“Not Much Difference, Results Are...”

I wanted to try it for the experience but I only did it once. The idea of shooting poison into my body just didn't feel right. It did remove the wrinkles and there was no negative, but the results are short-lived. I prefer something more permanent. I only did the forehead area so I had no problems with losing expression in my face. I would do it again for a special occassion. more

“Love It! - San Francisco, CA”

I am in my early 30's and was worried about developing a line between my brows. I was a little nervous and had thought about trying Botox for years. A few friends and family members had it done and this perked my curiosity even more though I was very nervous about the price, results, and side effects. When my younger sister called to report that she had it done for the same problem area I was... more

“Botox - San Francisco, CA”

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 Review for Crow's Feet - San...”

I had went to the dermatologist because I was unhapppy with the dark circles around my eyes, the deep hollows (sagging) below my eyes, and wrinkles around my eyes. On my first visit I met with an assistant (apparently she is a sales person). She recommended that I try the Ulthera Skin tightening and had told me that if I had the full face and neck treatment ($3600.00) - it would improve the... more

“First Botox Experience Was a...”

I had "11" lines between my eyebrows due to perpetual frowning and wanted to prevent deeper wrinkles from developing. Pros: 1. Dr. Mabrie is Board Certified and only works on faces. 2. I got a clear estimate of cost prior to my treatment. 3. Was able to get consultation and treatment done at first visit saving time and waiving consultation fee. 4. Charges by the area not by the... 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

“Dr. M is Awesome! - San Francisco, CA”

“Botox for TMJ”

I use it to inject into masseter muscle in jaw to reduce TMJ. It works great. I have the injection every 8 months or so, and it really beats having to wear a mouth-guard every night (yuk). Also makes my jaw look a bit less "square" since it relieves the muscle build-up in my jaw muscles. Also makes chewing food easier and more pleasant (less painful). What can I say, for me - it just... 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

“Deeper Wrinkles After Botox Wears off”

I am a 41 year old woman and have had botox treatment twice in the last couple of years. It has been about a year since my last treatment. When I went for my first treatment (age 39), I had very minor wrinkles on my forehead, ones that only bothered me.I feel that my wrinkles are worse now than they were before I started. In certain lighting and angle, there are the beginning of mounds... more

“One Eye is Pulled Too Tight After Botox”

I had my first botox treatment by an RN at a very reputable Plastic Surgery office in a major city. 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

“Will Not Do Again (31 Y/o, Crow's Feet)”

Iam a 31yr old female with the beginnings of crows feet. I decided, after a lot of thought, to give botox a shot.I got a very small amount - supposedly the smallest my Dr. administers - to my crows feet. Not worth it.It's now been 3 days and I am experiencing some side effects. The insomnia and anxiety is the worst. I literally have not slept more than 1/2 an hour in the more

“Botox Between the Eyebrows Was Good”

Pros:I now look younger than my real age. It didn't hurt and no bruising.Cons: As soon as it was shot in to me, I got severe dry eyes and it lasted for several days.I got botox cuz I had a deep wrinkle between my eyebrow. The result is good. I did this on August 25, 2009 and hope that it can for up to 4 months. more

“Botox is Fantastic! Love, Love Love...”

Love, love, love Botox....it has smoothed out my forehead and crows feet. It just needs to be done on a consistent basis for it to weaken the muscles I think. It worked well for me. Taking care of your skin with other things seems to be important as an adjunct....ie Green Cream (Retinol), Skinceuticals line, Jan Marini etc...and SUNSCREEN! 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

“Love It”

Works great. Had 2 dermabrasions years ago which tightened the lines but facial expressions brought them back. Botox is excellent. I went from always looking stressed to having people say how relaxed I look. I do get black and blue marks that last 4-6 days. I hear this is rare. I have started to limit any advil type product a week prior to the... more

“Smooth Forehead After Botox.”

I am a 52 years old woman of Indian origin and i live in LA. I recently got Botox injections after much consiideration and reccomendation of my friends. I had astonishingly hard frown lines all over my forehead and temples. Botox made them disappear within just a day and i was very very happy. The injectons were very mild and relatively painless after the ice that was rubbed on my... more
