Botox in Brookline Turns Back the Hands of Time
You’re suddenly noticing lines and wrinkles when you smile, frown, talk, etc.
The reason? Facial muscle contractions form those expressions. Over time, repeated contractions create what are called “dynamic wrinkles,” such as crow’s feet, forehead lines, and 11s.
Botox injections address those issues non-surgically, temporarily relaxing specific facial muscles while erasing signs of facial aging.

Botox Before & After
The Botox Process
Your treatment at Dream Spa Medical starts with a personal consultation. We’ll talk about your concerns and your goals, and we’ll examine your treatment area(s). If Botox in Brookline is the best solution, we’ll proceed with your treatment.
Your Dream Spa Medical provider will make a few tiny injections at precise locations in the treatment area(s). It takes 20 to 30 minutes total.

Let our team help you on your aesthetic journey!
You can expect to see your results up to 2 weeks after your treatment, with the appearance of your brow area potentially continuing to improve for up to a week. Your individual results will be unique to you, as no two patients are exactly the same. During your consultation, your provider will be sure to give you a clear idea of the results you can expect.
Yes, you’ll be able to make natural facial expressions after you’ve had Botox at Dream Spa Medical. Our injectors are trained and experienced, knowing how much Botox to inject and where to inject it. Anyone who has had “frozen face” from Botox has had too high a dose of Botox injected into their treatment area. We specialize in careful placement and dosage to achieve natural-looking results.
The muscle activity that causes your frown lines will be simply reduced, so you can still frown or look surprised and make other normal expressions without noticing those frustrating wrinkles and creases between your brows.
Absolutely not! At Dream Spa Medical, we frequently have men come in for Botox in Brookline. Men care about their appearance too, and they also want to combat signs of aging. Botox provides a great way to relax the muscles that cause dynamic lines and wrinkles, smoothing the skin for a more youthful appearance while preventing those muscles from creating more and deeper wrinkles. Some of our clients refer to Botox for men as “Brotox.”
Pre- & Post-Care Instructions for Botox in Brookline
Wrinkle relaxers are also known as neuromodulators or neurotoxins.
- Women who are pregnant or nursing should not be treated with wrinkle relaxers.
- We suggest that if you are actively trying to conceive, you consult your physician before being treated with wrinkle relaxers.
- Please allow 2 weeks before and after any vaccinations and your treatment.
- It is best to avoid alcohol & blood-thinning medications (aspirin, ibuprofen, etc.) 24 to 48 hours prior to your treatment. This may increase your risk of bruising.
- If you are prone to and being treated in an area that may cause a Herpes Labialis outbreak, we suggest pretreating with an antiviral medication for 2 days prior to your treatment and 2 days post-treatment. Dream Spa Medical is happy to provide you with a prescription, assuming that you are a candidate for this prescription.
- We always suggest hydrating as much as possible prior to any treatment at Dream Spa Medical. It is a great way to help your body function at its best and accelerate your healing time as well as enhance results.
- You may consider having at least a snack or a small meal within an hour of your appointment. Getting injected with needles can at times cause you to feel “queasy” or unwell. It always helps to have a little something in your stomach to combat those feelings. We keep juice and snack bars on hand in case you need a little pick-me-up mid-treatment!
- The treatment area may feel sensitive or tender to the touch. This should resolve within 24 hours.
- Avoid heavy lifting, strenuous activity, and sweating for 24 to 48 hours.
- Visible injection marks are normal and to be expected in most cases. This usually subsides within 24 hours.
- Treated areas should be cared for gently when washing your face or applying products. It is best to not touch or manipulate the treated area.
- Do not scratch or pick at the injection sites, as this may cause infection.
- We suggest waiting a full 2 weeks before any additional treatments such as facials, peels, laser treatments, etc.
- Sleep on your back, with your head elevated, for 1 to 2 nights.
All wrinkle relaxers take time to activate and settle into your muscles. The time it takes varies for everyone. You can expect to see your product “kicking in” anywhere between 5 to 14 days. All wrinkle relaxers begin to “wear off” over time. For consistent and optimal results, we recommend treatment every 3 months.
Although our skilled providers take many precautions in an attempt to prevent bruising, it is a possibility and an expected and normal side effect of the injection process. We suggest using Arnica gel (may be found in any drugstore) after your treatment to help minimize any bruising.
