How Long Does Botox Take to Work?

Botox works on dynamic wrinkles - those are wrinkles what occur with contraction of your muscle underneath your skin.  If you have static wrinkles - those that are there even at rest, then you may need a combination of Botox and dermal filler to achieve the best results.  Over time, with continued use of Botox, you may see a marked improvement in the static wrinkles as well.

 

Good Luck.

It can take up to 2 weeks before the effects of a Botox treatment are apparent.  I would wait to see what happens before having another treatment.

Botox results take up to 1-2 weeks and last up to 3-4 months in new areas of treatment. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Dr. Emer

Typically with Botox, you will begin to see results after 3-5 days, with the full effects setting in at 2 weeks, although this varies from patient to patient. If you still experience lines in the areas that have been injected, you may need to discuss other treatment options, such as hyaluronic-acid based fillers or lasers.  

Hello, Botox works mostly with wrinkles that occur when you make facial expressions, which is why you are seeing the disappearance of the frown wrinkles but not the ones that show when you do not make an expression. For those, a combination of botox and fillers would probably be required to help see the results you are looking for.

Some patients can appreciate Botox as early as 5 days following treatment.  Typical results will show in 0-14 days post treatment with full effect at 14 days post injection.
