BOTOX in Philadelphia

Achieve smoother, younger-looking skin with BOTOX®

Located in Bala Cynwyd and serving Philadelphia, Dr. Morgenstern, MD, FACS, performs BOTOX® in Philadelphia for a significant improvement in your overall facial appearance – leaving it looking smoother, refreshed, and more youthful.

Look younger with BOTOX® injections

Our BOTOX® injections are tremendously popular with our patients in Philadelphia, as botulinum toxin is quick, safe, and effective. With a few short injections, BOTOX® smooths wrinkles and laugh lines that make you look older, tired, or unhappy. BOTOX® can also be injected to limit facial muscle spasms or reduce excess sweating.

If you would like to refresh your appearance, BOTOX® injections are an affordable and non-invasive alternative to more invasive cosmetic surgery procedures such as a facelift. To learn more about BOTOX®, we invite you to contact our Bala Cynwyd plastic surgery office today.

What can BOTOX® treat?

BOTOX injections in Philadelphia can treat the following signs of facial aging:

Crow’s feet
Frown lines
Forehead creases
Reduce excessive sweating

How does BOTOX work?

BOTOX is injected to smooth the lines and creases becoming etched into your facial skin. BOTOX® is formulated with botulinum toxin type A. Highly diluted from its pure state, this injectable temporarily paralyzes the nerves responsible for superficial muscle control directly beneath the skin.

Because BOTOX® is formulated specifically for aesthetic treatments and is injected strategically, it is incredibly safe; there are no significant side effects except in very rare cases, and normal muscle control is unaffected. BOTOX® is so safe that it is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for smoothing facial lines and alleviating muscle spasms.

Schedule Consultation

What is the treatment like?

BOTOX in Philadelphia can be completed in just minutes and is nearly pain-free. With a small needle, Dr. Morgenstern or one of our experienced medical professionals will inject BOTOX® into the muscles that control frown lines, laugh lines, furrows, or wrinkles.

The placement of the injections will be determined during our initial consultation to help ensure you achieve your personal aesthetic goals. The procedure does not require the use of anesthesia, typically lasts no more than 10 minutes and requires no recovery time. Providing results that can last up to six months, patients often find they can receive treatments just once a year to maintain their appearance.

BOTOX FAQ

Can BOTOX treat excessive sweating?

Yes, BOTOX is FDA-approved to treat a condition called primary axillary hyperhidrosis (excessive underarm sweating). It works by temporarily blocking the nerves that stimulate sweat glands. Learn more on our BOTOX for Excessive Sweating page.

How Long Do BOTOX Results Last, And Do They Change Over Time?

Most patients notice results between 3–5 days, with full effects by 1–2 weeks. Results typically last 3–4 months, but with repeated treatments muscles may adapt more slowly—some patients enjoy longer-lasting effects over time.

Are There Any Lifestyle Factors That Can Impact BOTOX Effectiveness?

Yes. Factors like high stress, intense exercise shortly after treatment, or certain medications can influence how long Botox works. To maximize results, it’s best to avoid vigorous workouts for 24 hours and discuss medications—especially those affecting muscle or nerve function—with your provider.

What’s the difference between BOTOX and dermal fillers?

While BOTOX works by temporarily relaxing the underlying facial muscles that cause expression lines, dermal fillers restore lost volume and smooth out deeper static wrinkles or folds. Fillers are commonly used to enhance facial contours, plump lips, and soften lines around the nose and mouth, offering a more youthful appearance when paired with muscle-relaxing treatments like BOTOX.
