I had my first ever Botox injections today with Dr. Dahabra. From the moment I walked through the door the staff were fantastic and made me feel welcomed. Dr. Dahabra answered all of my questions and was wonderful with easing my first-timer jitters. Turns out Botox does not hurt nearly as bad as I was expecting, or maybe Dr. Dahabra is just that good. Results are still pending, but I had a great experience and will definitely return for other services.

Lauren K was the best! She was very accommodating to my schedule and made me feel confident and comfortable in my treatment! I drove all the way from Fort Lauderdale to WPB to go to her and I would make the drive every time!!

I’ve been coming to Beverly Hills Wellness for 2 years now and working with Lena. About a year ago, I started getting the worse acne I’ve ever had in my adult life. Lena evaluated my face and suggested a few facial treatments to remove the acne and clear my skin. Fast forward to a year later now, my skin has returned to its normal smooth texture and I rarely get any breakouts. I accomplished all this my religiously coming every month and working with Lena. She’s a lifesaver that completely saved my skin when I didn’t know what else to do! BHWC is my go to for all my beauty treatments now! Love it!

How does Botox in West Palm Beach Gardens work?

To answer this question, we need to understand the neuromuscular transmission pathway to be able to answer this question. The brain is the center of all commands. The order to do something starts there. The signal from the brain needs to transcend down and reach the muscle fibers to tell them what to do. This signal is in the form of small vesicles that carry the neurotransmitters(messengers in them), mainly Acetylcholine(Ach). These vesicles reach the end of the neuron and release the messengers in the space between the nerve and the muscle. The transmitter then attaches to the receptor of the muscles to start another cascade of communication.

Botox and other neuromodulators act by blocking and depleting these vesicles. This, in turn, prevents the crossing of the Ach from the nerve to the muscle. With no means of communication between the nerve and the muscle, the tissue remains in its dormant resting state  So how do the wrinkles disappear if the muscles don’t contract?

The wrinkles that are formed from muscle contraction are called dynamic lines. This means they appear with the contraction and then disappear after. The skin follows the shape and the contour of this contraction. With time, the skin starts to take the form of these contractions permanently. This means that these dynamic wrinkles begin to change to Static lines.

This is why Botox is as essential to treat these static wrinkles to prevent them. The earlier you start preventative treatment with Botox, the less chance of forming these static wrinkles at a young age.

A contracted muscle forces the skin to fold and wrinkle. A relaxed one softens and relaxes the skin above it.

Professional injector targets certain areas and muscles on the face to block their contraction. Botox is used mainly for three areas. The glabella also called the eleven lines or mad lines. Injecting this area gives you a fresh happy look. The second area is the Crow’s feet around the eyes which would eliminate all these lines and wrinkles that show when you smile or squint. The third area is the forehead which is a great area to target to get rid of these waves and lines in that

So why does it take Botox a few days to kick in?

Botox needs to diffuse and enter the nerve cell. Then it has to attach to all these vesicles that carry the messengers, deplete them, and prevent then from carrying the Ach to the nerve ending. This process takes a few days and differs from one person to another slightly.

With time, the Botox molecules start to be metabolized by the body. At the same time, the tissues and cells start to produce new batches of vesicles and the neurotransmitter Ach. Slowly, the transmission resumes and with that, the signal comes back from the nerve to the muscle to start contracting again. This process takes about two to six months. It is the time to get the next maintenance dose of your favorite magical medication.
