Your facial expressions identify your feelings, but over time, those same facial expressions may leave behind unwanted lines and wrinkles. The highly trained and experienced practitioners at Foothills Facial Plastic Surgery offer BOTOX Cosmetic treatments in Tucson to help women and men who visit from Sierra Vista, Green Valley, Sahuarita, and other nearby communities look younger and naturally refreshed.
Keep in mind that each patient is unique and your results may vary.
Over time, repeated contractions of facial muscles during smiling, squinting, frowning and other natural expressions cause “dynamic wrinkles” to form. The active ingredient in BOTOX Cosmetic, a purified protein called onabotulinumtoxinA, causes treated facial muscles to gradually relax, allowing the skin to smooth out.
These popular treatments provide effective facial rejuvenation by softening dynamic wrinkles such as:
In our Tucson practice, we offer BOTOX on its own or in conjunction with other skin-refreshing treatments such as injectable fillers like JUVÉDERM®.

The cost for BOTOX in Arizona ranges from about $300 to $500 per treatment, which is pretty close to the national average. BOTOX is usually priced either per unit or by the area being treated, such as between the eyes. As with virtually all cosmetic procedures, the cost of BOTOX depends on multiple factors. Those include your region, the training and experience of the injector, and the number of areas you want to be treated.
While both are injectable facial rejuvenation treatments, BOTOX and fillers work in different ways and treat different concerns. Differences include:
We often use a combination of BOTOX and fillers to rejuvenate and enhance the entire face.
Choosing Foothills Facial Plastic Surgery helps to ensure that you’ll be comfortable during and after treatment. The injections take only minutes to perform, and there is no downtime. During the procedure, you may experience a slight pinch at the injection location or no discomfort at all. A topical anesthetic is available to minimize discomfort. You can return to daily activities right away.
BOTOX is designed to soften dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated facial muscle movement, but it isn’t the only option for facial rejuvenation. Depending on your concerns and goals, Dr. Olson may recommend treatments such as dermal fillers or fat transfer to restore lost facial volume, fractional CO2 laser treatments or IPL photofacials to improve skin quality, or a facelift to address more advanced skin laxity and signs of aging.
These treatments may be used as alternatives to BOTOX when another approach is better suited to your concerns or combined with BOTOX to address multiple signs of facial aging. Dr. Olson can recommend a personalized treatment plan based on your facial anatomy, skin quality, and aesthetic goals.

Learn MoreBOTOX Cosmetic results typically last 3 to 5 months before a touch-up treatment is necessary. The duration of results depends on the location of the muscles, individual variation, and the extent of treatment. Patients who return for regular touch-up treatments can maintain their improvements.
There is no specific age when it is best to start getting these injections. Women and men concerned about forehead wrinkles and worry lines often turn to the product in their 30s as a preventive measure. It remains an effective treatment for most people through their 50s, but it’s less effective for patients whose wrinkles are caused by skin that has lost much of its elasticity, which is common later in life.
Yes, people will still be able to tell when you are happy, sad, or worried by looking at your face. One of the concerns people considering BOTOX injections frequently have is that their faces won’t communicate their emotions. That “frozen” appearance is often the result of injectors who don’t have adequate training or experience in the injection, which requires precision to get the results patients desire. That’s why it’s important to choose an experienced, certified specialist who aims for subtle, natural-looking results.
The number of BOTOX units you need depends on the areas being treated, your facial anatomy, the strength of the targeted muscles, and your aesthetic goals. Dr. Olson evaluates these factors and customizes your treatment to use an appropriate number of units for natural-looking results while preserving facial expression.
You can typically begin to notice improvements within a few days of your BOTOX injections. Your results should continue to develop as BOTOX takes effect, softening dynamic wrinkles such as forehead lines, crow’s feet, and vertical lines between the eyebrows.
