Constant facial motions such as raising your brows, concentrating, frowning, and smiling eventually affect your skin, leaving it with visible lines and creases. Our Botox injections are among the most popular of all anti-aging treatments worldwide – because they work.
What is BOTOX?
Every time you squint, frown, or smile, your facial muscles contract. With time, these expressions will etch wrinkles and lines into your skin. At our offices in Newport Beach & Rancho Santa Margarita BOTOX works by blocking the nerve impulses to specific muscle strands, smoothing your facial skin, and can prevent lines and creases from becoming deeper. BOTOX is an FDA-approved injection containing the active botulinum toxin ingredient that reduces the constant muscle motions that create forehead wrinkles, creases, and lines.
BOTOX injections allow the skin to relax and smooth for a refreshed, youthful look. Within days of your BOTOX treatment, your forehead creases, frown lines, and crow’s feet fade, leaving you looking rejuvenated and restored.
Custom BOTOX injections can smooth forehead creases and lines, fade crow’s feet, and reduce visible frown lines. At Pure Beauty Medical Spa, we are trusted by our clients to produce very natural, refreshed results with BOTOX – never overdone. We want you to maintain the beauty of your natural expressions while smoothing away lines and creases. For our skincare professionals, BOTOX is an art.
How are BOTOX Injections Performed?
BOTOX treatment is a quick, simple procedure that can be performed right at our medical spa. To begin, a topical anesthetic will be applied to the skin in the treatment area.
This will minimize the amount of discomfort you feel during the treatment. Next, your injector professional will use a very fine needle to inject BOTOX into your facial skin. You may feel a slight pinch, but there shouldn’t be any significant pain. In total, the treatment should only take around 15 to 30 minutes to complete, and you’ll be able to return home shortly after your treatment for BOTOX at Pure Beauty Medical Spa.
Conditions Treated With Botox
Botox is widely known for its ability to soften facial wrinkles, but it is also an FDA-approved prescription treatment for a variety of medical conditions. At Pure Beauty, every Botox treatment is administered by experienced providers who combine aesthetic precision with medical expertise to ensure safe and effective outcomes.
Botox is also approved for treating several conditions beyond aesthetics:
Excessive Sweating: Treats severe axillary hyperhidrosis unresponsive to standard treatments.
Botox can be combined with dermal fillers for a comprehensive approach to treating facial wrinkles, restoring facial contours, and achieving a natural-looking rejuvenation.
One of the reasons that BOTOX is so popular is that it can be used to reduce signs of aging skin in many different areas of the face. Typically, the three primary areas targeted with BOTOX treatment are the glabella (the area between the eyebrows), the forehead, and outside the eyes (crow’s feet). However, with BOTOX Newport Beach & Rancho Santa Margarita patients can also treat:
During your consultation with one of our skincare experts, they’ll work with you to determine which areas of your face can benefit the most from BOTOX treatment.

Who Is a Good Candidate for BOTOX?
If you’re an adult who would like to achieve smoother, more youthful-looking facial skin and reduce fine lines and wrinkles, you could be a good candidate for our BOTOX treatments. To be an ideal candidate for the treatment, you should meet the following requirements:
“I went to this location to get a fixer-upper of a recent BOTOX injection I had received elsewhere that had created two small lines at the top of my forehead right before my hairline. I’m only 24 and doing this for preventative care and because I am a model. I don’t remember the female’s name, but she was such a sweet physician. She totally saw the problem and completely fixed it. A few days after, and once the BOTOX results started to show, I couldn’t have been more satisfied. Awesome place.”

Side Effects – Little to None
You will feel the pinch of the needle as the Botox is injected, with only minor discomfort. You may experience swelling, redness, pain, or tenderness at the injection site, which will fade rapidly.
The most critical aspect of the success of BOTOX injections is the experience and precision of your injection specialist. At Pure Beauty Medical Spa, we take great pride in the quality of our results, and our injection specialists focus on enhancing your natural beauty in the most subtle way.
The Results of Your BOTOX Injections
BOTOX takes a few days to work. As the days pass, you will see brow creases, frown lines, and crow’s feet become less and less visible. As the lines and creases fade, it leaves you looking younger in the most subtle way. Frown lines between your brows disappear, and with regular BOTOX injections, you can ward off the signs of aging skin for years longer.
Whether you are considering getting BOTOX or have relied on BOTOX for years, the primary concern is being confident that the smoothing effect will appear natural, not frozen, uneven, or overdone.
At Pure Beauty Medical Spa, we are proud to have gained a reputation for the superior quality of our work and for the talent, precision, and care our team delivers. Imagine looking well-rested, refreshed, and youthful with a treatment that takes only minutes to complete! We invite you to visit one of our private, luxury medical spas, where every member of our team is focused on creating outstanding results.
On average, Botox lasts for around three to four months before the effects start to fade.
Although minor side effects are not uncommon, Botox injections are safe as long as they’re performed by a licensed and experienced healthcare provider.
There is no recovery downtime required for your Botox treatment, but your skincare professional will provide you with instructions to ensure that your skin heals properly.
Ideally, you should wait four hours before engaging in moderate exercise and 24 hours before engaging in strenuous exercise after receiving Botox.
You may see the results of Botox treatment in as little as 24 hours, but it usually takes around three days.
The total number of Botox injections you need will depend on the size of the treatment area and the specifics of your treatment plan.
A “gummy smile” refers to a smile that shows excessive upper gum—often caused by overactive muscles lifting the upper lip. Botox can be strategically injected into the levator labii superioris muscle to relax its movement, allowing the upper lip to rest lower and reveal less gum when smiling. The result is a more balanced, confident smile without surgery.
Botox under the eyes can help minimize the appearance of fine lines, 'crepey' texture, or subtle under-eye wrinkles caused by repetitive facial movements. By gently relaxing the muscles that contribute to these lines, Botox can create a smoother, more refreshed look. However, not everyone is a good candidate for this treatment area, and dosage must be carefully customized.
At Pure Beauty Medical Spa, we offer Dysport as an effective alternative to Botox. Like Botox, Dysport is a neuromodulator that smooths dynamic wrinkles caused by facial movement—particularly frown lines and forehead creases. Some patients prefer Dysport for its slightly quicker onset and softer diffusion, which can be ideal for treating larger areas. Our expert injectors will help determine whether Botox or Dysport is better suited to your unique facial anatomy and aesthetic goals.
Botox is FDA-approved, but like any prescription treatment, it carries potential risks:
Patients with general muscle weakness, reduced lung function, or neurological conditions (like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or myasthenia gravis) should be evaluated carefully before Botox therapy. Prompt medical therapy is advised if severe side effects occur, including trouble breathing or swallowing.
Women who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning pregnancy should avoid Botox.
