Botox has become one of the most popular cosmetic treatments in West Hollywood, not just for its wrinkle-reducing power but also for how easy and convenient it is. Whether you’re prepping for red carpet moments or simply want to maintain a youthful, smooth complexion, one question comes up often: How often should you get Botox?
At Skinpeccable, one of West Hollywood’s leading dermatology clinics, we believe in personalized treatment, but here are general guidelines to help you plan your Botox schedule effectively.
How Long Does Botox Last?
Botox typically lasts 3 to 4 months, depending on several factors:
- Your metabolism – Faster metabolisms may break down Botox more quickly.
- Area treated – Forehead and crow’s feet may last a bit longer than more active areas like around the mouth.
- Dosage and strength – A higher dosage can potentially increase longevity.
- Your lifestyle – Regular workouts and sun exposure may influence how long results last.
Ideal Botox Schedule: Every 3 to 4 Months
Most patients in West Hollywood schedule their Botox treatments every 12 to 16 weeks to maintain consistently smooth skin and prevent wrinkles from reappearing. Sticking to this routine helps:
- Maintain results long-term
- Reduce the need for higher doses later
- Prevent deeper lines from forming
Some clients opt for “touch-up” treatments at 8-10 weeks if they notice early movement returning in high-activity areas like the forehead or between the brows.
Can You Go Longer Between Botox Sessions?
Yes, some people find that after consistent use over time, their muscles weaken slightly and results last longer. Others may choose to space treatments out to twice a year if they’re not aiming for 24/7 smoothness but still want periodic refreshers.
If you’re just starting out, it’s best to follow your provider’s guidance and observe how long your initial results last.
Signs It’s Time for a New Botox Treatment
- Wrinkles or lines begin reappearing
- Facial expressions start to feel more animated again
- You notice less lift in treated areas (brows, eyes, etc.)
- You’re prepping for a special event or photoshoot
