FAQ
How fast does Botox work?
Results usually appear gradually rather than immediately. Timing varies by area and individual response.
Is Botox the same as filler?
No. Botox relaxes muscle activity, while filler adds or restores volume.
Can Botox change my face shape?
Jaw Botox may reduce the appearance of strong masseter muscles over time, but results depend on anatomy and muscle size.
