The discussion about Botox has traditionally revolved around women trying to combat the effects of aging. Yet, with changing societal views, I made the choice to adopt the belief that self-care and self-assurance go beyond traditional norms. I decided to research Health & Beauty Spas around Tampa to find the best one that could help me reduce fine lines and wrinkles and maintain a youthful appearance. Instead of choosing one of the more popular spas, I opted for a smaller spa. Sometimes, smaller practices can provide a more personalized level of patient care, at least in healthcare and that's exactly the approach I took in my approach. My search led me to Soho Wellness Med Spa, not the Tampa location, but the smaller one in Wesley Chapel, FL. Being new to this, I decided to simplify things and concentrate solely on addressing the forehead wrinkles and crow's feet that seemed to be getting worse with each passing year. 1. Upon booking my appointment, there was a selection of names to choose from, so I decided to go with whoever was free. Fortunately, I was matched with D.J Alleva, whose down-to-earth nature instantly put me at ease. Ms. Alleva didn't push any extravagant options, but instead took a simplified approach by suggesting we focus on what I was seeking, wait for the results, and then proceed accordingly. This was exactly what I had hoped for. Despite having a high pain threshold, I did not find the BOTOX material itself to be painful; it felt more like a brief stinging sensation. I can't recall the exact number of vials used, but I should have kept track of it. It's probably just a mistake that beginners make - well at least this one. (I'll shoot for better pics too) My muscles started to weaken and my movement became stagnant after a couple of days. It is believed that the full effects of the treatment can be observed between ten to fourteen days after the procedure. To ensure that I was on the right track, I made an appointment for a follow-up at the two-week mark to evaluate the results and allow Ms. Alleva to work her magic. It's disappointing not being able to go to the gym afterwards, but there's no way around it. However, looking back, I am truly satisfied with my overall experience. Next up, micro needling - wish me luck!
