What Are Neuromodulators
Such as BOTOX®
and Juveau?

BOTOX and Juveau are neuromodulators, which are injectable treatments that temporarily modulate the activity of the nerves that control muscle movement. They work by blocking the release of the chemical messenger acetylcholine, which is responsible for activating the muscles. By reducing muscle activity, BOTOX and Juveau can help smooth out wrinkles and fine lines caused by repetitive facial expressions such as frowning, squinting, and smiling. These treatments are most commonly used on the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes, but can also be used to treat wrinkles in other areas of the face. Both BOTOX and Juveau are FDA-approved and are considered safe and effective when used under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional.

What Are the Benefits of BOTOX®?

BOTOX is known for its ability to smooth fine lines and wrinkles with minimal downtime. As a non-surgical treatment, it offers a quick and virtually painless solution to dynamic wrinkles, including crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines between the brows. Beyond aesthetics, BOTOX can also alleviate medical concerns such as chronic migraines, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), and jaw tension from TMJ. Results look natural when performed by an experienced injector, allowing patients to maintain expressiveness after treatment. With treatments lasting approximately 3 to 4 months, BOTOX provides an effective yet temporary solution for those seeking ongoing maintenance of their youthful features.v

Who Are the Best Candidates for BOTOX®?

BOTOX is ideal for individuals looking to soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles without resorting to surgery. Most commonly, patients in their late 20s to early 60s seek BOTOX as a preventive or corrective treatment for expression lines that have become more pronounced. Those suffering from conditions such as chronic migraines, excessive sweating, or TMJ-related pain may also benefit from the muscle-relaxing properties of BOTOX. Candidates should be in good overall health, not pregnant or nursing, and have realistic expectations about the treatment’s outcomes. A consultation with Dr. Kassir in New York City is essential to determine the best approach for each patient’s unique needs.

What to Expect on the Day of BOTOX® Treatment

When you arrive at one of our New York City Kassir Plastic Surgery offices for your BOTOX treatment, Dr. Kassir or one of our providers will review your treatment plan and answer any last-minute questions before a numbing cream is put onto the areas for injection. The treatment is quick and minimally invasive, typically taking 10-15 minutes. A fine needle is used to carefully and precisely administer BOTOX into the targeted muscles to avoid an overdone or frozen appearance. Most patients report minimal discomfort, often describing the sensation as a small pinch.

Recovery

One of the many benefits of BOTOX is that almost no downtime is required after treatment. Most patients can resume their daily activities immediately following their appointment, though some minor swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites is expected and will resolve within a few hours to a few days. Dr. Kassir will advise you to avoid strenuous exercise, lying down, or touching the treated areas for at least 4-6 hours after your session. The full results will become visible within a few days.

How much does
BOTOX® cost
in New York City, NY?

procedure-cost

The cost of BOTOX in New York City can vary depending on several factors, such as the location, the injector’s experience, the amount of BOTOX used, and the number of areas treated. Generally, the cost per unit of BOTOX ranges from $15 to $30, and the number of units needed will depend on the size of the area treated and the severity of the wrinkles.

On average, the cost of BOTOX injections ranges from $300 to $1000 per treatment session. The cost is also affected by the number of treatment sessions, with follow-up sessions generally costing less than the initial treatment. Keep in mind that the cost also depends on location, and some cities and states have higher costs than others.

It’s important to remember that BOTOX is a cosmetic treatment, so it is usually not covered by health insurance. However, some providers may offer financing or payment plans to make the treatment more affordable.

It’s always recommended to consult with a qualified healthcare professional before receiving any treatment. During the consultation, the professional can estimate the cost of the treatment and help you explore the available financing options.

  • Rhinoplasty & Lip Fillers

    I went to Dr. Kassir for a non-surgical nose job and Lip fillers and I loved it!! His practice is well put together, from the beginning to the end my experience was awesome. The staff are very sweet and helpful! I will have my full rhinoplasty performed by Dr. Kassir because I would only trust him with my face. I never felt pressured or forced into any procedure and he gave me that sense of security that I needed in order to make this life changing decision. Dr. Kassir is a very honest man, who’s passion is to make other people feel beautiful and is not doing it for the money! I’m very happy with the results of the non-surgical nose job and my advise to anyone looking for a plastic surgeon is to know that every dollar you spend with a surgeon like Dr. Kassir is well worth it!
