Two different tools for two different problems. Knowing which one you actually need is most of the job.
Botox
Botox® is an FDA-approved prescription injectable. It relaxes specific muscles so the lines those muscles create soften. It is commonly used for frown lines between the brows, forehead lines, and crow’s feet.
- A treatment takes about fifteen minutes
- Results build over several days rather than appearing right away
- The effect is temporary, so treatments are repeated over time
- Common side effects include tenderness, small bruises, or headache
Dermal fillers
Fillers add volume instead of relaxing muscle. They are used for areas that have lost fullness, or to shape features such as lips and cheeks. Which filler is used depends on the area being treated.
- Volume shows immediately, with swelling settling over the following days
- How long a filler lasts depends on the product and the area
- Common side effects include swelling, bruising, and tenderness

Before and after
One patient, treated in the forehead and between the brows. Both photos are unretouched, and the second one has no makeup on at all — we would rather show you the honest version than the flattering one.
Individual results vary.
Botox relaxes the muscle that makes a line, so it softens lines that movement causes. It does not fill a line that is there when your face is still, and how long it lasts varies from person to person. What is right for you is decided at your consultation, not from a photograph.
Your consultation comes first
These are prescription medical treatments, not retail products. Before anything is injected you will have a consultation covering your health history, medications, allergies, prior cosmetic treatments, and what you want to change. Some people are not candidates, and we will tell you if that is the case.
Injections are performed by a certified injector under the supervision of our medical director, Dr. Raul Rodriguez, M.D., who is the named prescriber for both locations.
All prescription therapies require a medical evaluation. A licensed provider decides whether a treatment is appropriate for you. Not everyone is a candidate.

Common questions
What is the difference between Botox and filler?
Botox relaxes specific muscles so the lines those muscles create soften. Fillers add volume to areas that have lost fullness, or shape features such as lips and cheeks. They solve different problems, and working out which one you actually need is most of the job.
Who does the injecting?
Injections are performed by a certified injector under the supervision of our medical director, Dr. Raul Rodriguez, M.D., who is the named prescriber for both locations. These are prescription medical treatments, not retail products, and a consultation comes first.
How long does an appointment take?
A Botox treatment takes about fifteen minutes. Its effect builds over several days rather than appearing straight away and is temporary, so treatments are repeated over time. Filler shows volume immediately, with swelling settling over the days that follow.
Can anyone have these treatments?
No. Some people are not candidates, and we will tell you if that is the case. Before anything is injected you will have a consultation covering your health history, medications, allergies and prior cosmetic treatments.
