At Guilford Dermatology, our patients trust our skilled team to help them reach their aesthetic goals. We begin every treatment with a thorough consultation to ensure that the results align with your vision, delivering a refreshed and natural look without the “frozen” appearance. Our approach is guided by our deep understanding of facial anatomy and skin care, ensuring precision and minimized discomfort through advanced injection techniques. At Guilford Dermatology, we strive to make your Botox experience comfortable, personalized, and effective.

What To Expect

At Guilford Dermatology, all consultations and treatments are conducted by board-certified dermatologists. During your consultation, we will carefully assess your skin and recommend the best Botox plan tailored to your needs. You’ll have ample time to ask questions and address any concerns, and in many cases, treatments can be performed on the same day to streamline your visit.
The Botox injections are administered with ultra-fine needles to minimize discomfort. After treatment, an ice pack is provided to reduce swelling, so you can continue with your day with minimal disruption. For optimal results, we advise avoiding makeup for 12 hours, refraining from lying down for 4 hours, and waiting a day before engaging in strenuous activities.
Results from Botox typically begin to show within 5 to 7 days, with full effects visible in about two weeks. The effects generally last 3 to 4 months, depending on individual factors like metabolism. When you’re ready for a touch-up, we’ll be here to help maintain your desired look.

At Guilford Dermatology, we understand that every face is unique. Our board-certified dermatologists specialize in crafting Botox treatments that enhance your natural beauty. By tailoring each treatment to the individual, we ensure that your results are subtle and rejuvenating, maintaining your natural expression while reducing the signs of aging.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Botox cost?


At Guilford Dermatology, we offer Botox treatments at a range of $350 to $800, depending on the number of areas treated. Unlike charging per unit, we focus on delivering the right amount for your specific needs, ensuring effective and customized results.

How does Botox work?


Botox works by blocking the signal from the nerves to the muscles, preventing muscle contraction that causes wrinkles. This results in a smoother and more youthful appearance. The nerves responsible for sensation are not affected, so you won’t experience numbness in the treated areas.

Am I a candidate for Botox?


Botox is ideal if you’re seeking to reduce dynamic wrinkles, prevent new lines from forming, or address concerns like a gummy smile, TMJ, or even excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). Botox can also soften the jawline, lift the brows, and minimize neckbands. Consulting with a professional will help determine if Botox is the right choice for you.

Is Botox painful?


Most patients experience minimal discomfort during Botox injections. The sensation is often described as a slight pinch. At Guilford Dermatology, we use ultra-fine needles to reduce discomfort and bleeding, and we provide ice packs post-treatment to help alleviate any swelling or tenderness.
