What is Botox
Botox is a drug that contains a purified protein made by the bacteria Clostridium botulinum. When injected in precise places in small amounts, the protein in Botox temporarily stops the transmission of nerve signals to the brain or muscle activity.
While health care providers use Botox to treat many conditions, including migraines and strabismus (eye misalignment), it’s best known for smoothing out dynamic wrinkles. These are the lines and creases that form from repetitive facial expressions.
Botox prevents muscle movement under the skin that causes these lines, giving your skin a chance to relax and smooth out.

Our Botox Gallery: Before and After
What happens during my Botox session?
Our provider customizes your Botox injections to match your needs. While you sit back and relax in the treatment chair, your provider cleans your skin with an antiseptic agent.
They carefully and expertly inject the medication into your skin to get the desired results. You may feel a slight pinch during your session, but the needle is small and most people find the treatment tolerable.
Botox injections usually take less than 30 minutes.
What happens after
Botox injections?
You can resume your normal activities after your Botox injections. You may cover any red marks made by the needles with makeup. However, your provider at kalon Dermatology recommends you to not massage your skin or engage in any strenuous physical activity for at least two hours.
You may see improvements in your look about two days after your Botox injections, but the full effects may take up to 30 days*. Botox treatments last for three to four months* and you can repeat your injections as soon as you notice a return of your lines and wrinkles.
To see if Botox injections are right for your aesthetic concerns, call kalon Dermatology or schedule an appointment online today.

Frequently Asked Questions
Botox at kalon Dermatology is priced per unit. The exact cost depends on how many units you need, which varies by individual and the areas you’re treating. On average, most patients need around 20 units for the forehead or 24 units for the frown lines, for example. Our per-unit price is competitive for the NYC area. We often run seasonal specials. During your consultation, we’ll give you a precise quote before proceeding. There are no surprises – you’ll know the cost upfront.
We hear this concern a lot, and we agree – results should look natural. Our philosophy is ‘less is more.’ At kalon Dermatology, Botox is administered by experienced providers (dermatologists and trained nurses) who understand facial anatomy. We use precise doses so you’ll see improvement in wrinkles, but still have normal expressions. No frozen faces here! After treatment, you’ll look like yourself, just more refreshed. We also do a follow-up if needed to ensure you’re happy with your result. Your trust is important to us, so we take a conservative, customized approach to Botox.
Most people notice subtle smoothing within 2 to 3 days after Botox. Those lines will continue to fade over the next week or so. Full results are typically visible at around 7 to 14 days (about two weeks). So don’t worry if you don’t see a big change the next morning – it’s working behind the scenes!
Botox isn’t permanent, but it lasts a good while. You can expect your smooth results to last about 3 to 4 months. Over time, the effect will gradually wear off – your muscles will start moving again, and the wrinkles will slowly return. When you notice those lines coming back, it’s time to schedule your next treatment. Many of our patients plan for Botox about 3 times a year to maintain a continuously fresh look.
Our goal is to ensure you love your results. We’ll schedule a follow-up or encourage you to call if you have any questions after your treatment. And remember: individual results can vary (some people’s Botox may last slightly shorter or longer), but we’ll tailor a plan that keeps you looking your best.
