While we use only one type of neurotoxin at a time on your face, combining neurotoxins and dermal fillers may be the most effective approach for comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Injectables can also be incorporated into a treatment plan that includes other cosmetic procedures available in our office, such as microneedling, chemical peels, or IPL. Your team of aesthetic professionals will work with you to identify an optimal combination of treatments based on your skin type, cosmetic goals, budget, and lifestyle.

What to Expect
The Injection Process
Step 1: Consultation
Your 5-star experience at Medical Grade Aesthetics starts with a one-on-one consultation to receive a personalized plan of care. At this consultation, our provider will ask about your goals and concerns, as well as conduct a facial analysis to identify the right cosmetic injection for you. We’ll create a plan that accomplishes your goals, whether that’s with Botox in Beloit or any one of our injectables. Then we’ll schedule you for your first injection!
Step 2: Injection
Our injector will administer a series of injections based on the facial analysis during your consultation. The number of injections at your appointment depends on the total amount of your neurotoxin needed to produce the desired effect. Usually, most appointments can be done in 30 minutes or less.
Step 3: Follow-up
There is no downtime necessary after your appointment, though you might have some minimal swelling or bruising at the injection site. It’s important to avoid rubbing or massaging the area for at least 24 hours. You can enjoy the results from our neurotoxins for up to 6 months, depending on the type you receive. After that, you’ll need regular follow-up injections to maintain your wrinkle-free results!

Dermal Fillers
Sculptra
Fat-Dissolving Injections
Dermal fillers utilize hyaluronic acid to increase volume and hydration in the face. They are best for filling in static wrinkles, or wrinkles that remain in your face regardless of your facial expression. Neurotoxins freeze the muscles to address dynamic wrinkles, or wrinkles that show when you make a facial expression.
The time it takes for you to see results depends on the type of neurotoxin, though many show the initial results within several days of your appointment. If you receive Botox in Beloit, for example, it may take up to 14 days to get the full effects.
Botox can treat expression lines by relaxing your facial muscles. Many patients choose Botox for:
- Forehead lines
- Frown lines between the eyebrows, commonly called 11s
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
If you have TMJ or want a less boxy jaw, our providers may also recommend neurotoxins for the masseter muscles. During your consultation for Botox in Beloit, we study your facial movements and desired level of expressiveness so we can refine the right areas with intention.
Most of our clients find Botox injections to be quick and manageable. The needle is small, so treatment usually feels like a brief pinch or light pressure in the treatment area.
Before we begin, our team walks you through the plan and gives you time to ask questions. If you have any concerns about pain or discomfort, please let us know. After treatment, you may notice mild redness, swelling, or tenderness at the injection sites. These effects are temporary and should resolve in a couple of days.
Your ideal Botox schedule depends on your goals, metabolism, facial movement, and the product we select. Importantly, each person metabolizes the product at their own rate, so while there are average intervals for treatment, each individual varies per their own treatment goals.
We highly recommend routine appointments every 3 to 4 months to prevent, reduce, or relax expression lines. When you visit us for Botox in Beloit, our providers guide you in establishing a maintenance plan that fits into your schedule and expectations.
Absolutely! Natural-looking Botox depends on careful placement and proper dosing. Our team wants to soften fine lines and wrinkles while keeping your face expressive.
During your consultation, we study how your muscles move when you smile, frown, lift your brows, purse your lips, and relax your face. This helps us create a plan that supports your features without making your results look obvious or overdone.
After Botox, you should follow your provider’s aftercare instructions closely. In general, we recommend avoiding:
- Intense exercise or sweating
- Rubbing the treated areas
- Lying flat, especially on your stomach
- Applying pressure to your face right after treatment
To protect your results as the product settles, you should also wait before scheduling facials, massages, or certain skin treatments near the injection sites. When you choose to get neurotoxin injections at MGA, our team explains your aftercare before you leave, so you always know what to do next.
