I got my first procedure done today (Botox 26 units) and the RN said it would take an entire year to see any of the wrinkles disappear. After reading about other people's experiences it sounds like they are seeing much faster results, within a few weeks. I get that my muscles won't move and it will take time to see the lines fade but a whole year? I'm 40 and at this point I only have lines on my forehead so it's not like I'm in bad shape. How long before the crease in between your eyes is gone?

Answer: Botox Wrinkles Don't Disappear, Movement Wrinkles Improve For 3-4 Months While Botox Is Active Any wrinkles from movement will improve with botox injections and stay improved for 3-4 months. they go back to their normal state after the botox was injected. Sometimes less, sometimes more depending on the person and their musculature and daily activity (ie amount of expressivity). Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: When do Wrinkles Disappear after Botox? The amount of time it takes for "Static" wrinkles (those that are present when your face is a rest) to fade depends on how deep the lines are before you start doing Botox. Everyone is different, and while age does matter, you could be 40 or 45 with a deep wrinkle, or 60 with hardly any wrinkle. The best time to start using Botox is when you see that line with your face at rest. Most patients will need to have Botox done every 3 to 6 months. If you are 40 years old, and the line between your eyebrows is not too deep, it shouldn't take a whole year to see it disappear. Still, remember the line won't go away immediately. I recommend you continue to stay on top of your treatments - when you can totally make the movement again, it is time for the next treatment.
