I am 58 yrs old, with red hair and fair completion. Although I am faithful with my botox treatment, I still had visible crows feet and sagging at my jowls. No matter how many facials I got, my skin just looked dull. I was hesitant to try PlasmaMD, mostly because I thought it might just be a gimmick. Dr. Suarez took her time and explained that this procedure was a step above and she was getting excellent results with little downtime or discomfort. We agreed to to my eyelids, crowsfeet and jowls. I had it done on a Thursday afternoon and took Friday from work. I've posted my day after photo..not pretty, but not bad and not painful. By Sunday I could cover with a tinted sunscreen that she gave me. I returned to work Monday with only slight brown spots that were easily hidden with make up. It's been 8.5 months and my skin still looks terrific! I only wish I had done my neck at the same time! That's definitely my next procedure.
Botox blocks the contraction of muscles. Once injected you will start to see results in as little as 2-3 days but it will continue to work for up to 2 weeks. Botox will typically start to wear off at 3-4 months. Depending on age, amount used, exercise regimen you may choose to have the injection every 3 months or every 6 months. Many use Botox as a preventive measure or as a treatment. Many people are still injecting into their 60 and 70's.
