• Q: How long will it take to administer Botox ?
• A: Generally it will take a just a few minutes. The treatment would involve you coming to our offices, meeting the doctor and explaining exactly what areas you would like to be treated. Once this is done, the treatment area will be cleaned and then injected with a dose of Botox. Over all you should be in and out of our practise within 30 minutes.

• Q: Does the injections hurt ?
