How deep are DAO injections?

These are very superficial injections (approximately 2 -3 mm) with a very fine needle. The injection is not painful and very well tolerated by most patients. Please see an experienced injector as the DAO can sometimes be a trickier muscle to locate and inject properly. Best of luck!

Thanks for your question. Treating the DAO is a very simple and quick procedure with great results when done properly. The needles are very tiny and the medication is injected quite superficially in the muscles of facial expression, so not deep at all. Please see an experienced board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon with experience in treating this area, and I hope you have a lovely outcome!
