What is BOTOX?
BOTOX is an FDA-approved cosmetic injectable made of botulinum toxin type A. Dr. Horton and her team also offer dermal fillers to reduce signs of aging without surgery or downtime. BOTOX works by paralyzing muscles associated with certain facial expressions, reducing the lines and wrinkles they cause over time. Dermal fillers also reduce lines and wrinkles and restore lost facial volume due to aging.
What are the benefits of BOTOX and fillers?
Some of the numerous benefits associated with BOTOX and filler injections include:
- Fewer lines and wrinkles
- Younger-looking skin
- Smoother skin
- Better facial symmetry
- Restored facial volume
- No incisions or lengthy recovery times
- No pain or downtime
- Fast treatments lasting less than an hour
Aesthetic injections at Omega Med Spa are noninvasive but can produce dramatic anti-aging results.
What are the different types of cosmetic injectables?
Cosmetic injectables available at Omega Med Spa include:

Dr. Horton and her team customize each BOTOX and filler treatment based on your skin type, the severity of skin imperfections, and your desired outcome.
What should I expect during BOTOX or filler injections?
Prior to BOTOX and filler injections, Dr. Horton and her team can numb the treatment area if you’d like. They gently inject botulinum toxin or natural filler substances beneath your skin in problem areas. The injections take just minutes to complete.
Because there’s no downtime after cosmetic injectables, you can resume your normal routine right away. Redness and swelling are common after the injections, but these side effects soon subside. You might notice results from fillers right away, while BOTOX-type injectables can take several days to take effect.
How long will my results last?
BOTOX results often last 3-6 months, while dermal fillers can last 6-18 months or longer. Periodic maintenance treatments can give you the long-lasting, youthful-looking results you long for.
