Botox in Knoxville
Best Botox in Knoxville, TN
Botox Cosmetic is an FDA-approved injectable that has been used for years to smooth out crow’s feet and worry lines between the eyebrows. It works by blocking the nerve signals to the muscles, preventing them from contracting, which in turn smooths out the skin above. Over the past decade, millions of people around the world have benefited from Botox Cosmetic, with thousands in Knoxville alone.
“As skin becomes less elastic over time, repeated frowning may create visible lines and wrinkles. These lines are most commonly seen between the eyebrows, on the forehead, and around the corners of the eyes.”

Botox is safe and effective for the temporary smoothing of furrows between the brows, crow’s feet and forehead lines. Botox treatments generally take just 10-20 minutes, although treatment times vary from person to person.

Will my face look frozen or unnatural after Botox?
When done by a skilled practitioner, Botox should give a natural result without freezing your facial expressions. The goal is to reduce wrinkles while still allowing for normal facial movements. A “frozen face” look happens when too much Botox is injected, or it’s applied incorrectly, leading to an over-relaxed appearance where the treated muscles can’t move as they normally would.
We believe that everyone’s face is different, and a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work with Botox. Our practicioners customize your treatment to your specific needs, taking into account your facial structure, the strength of your muscles, and your desired outcome.
How soon will I see results after my Botox treatment?
Right after the injections, you might notice some minor redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites. These are common and usually subside within a few hours to a couple of days. However, you won’t see the effects of the Botox right away. 7 to 14 days post treatment is when the full effects of Botox are typically seen. By the end of the second week, the treated area should be noticeably smoother, with wrinkles and fine lines reduced or even eliminated. This is the point at which you can fully assess the results of your treatment.
