Procedure:

• The area to be treated is first cleaned to remove any traces of makeup or dirt by using a disinfecting solution or soap
• The area is then numbed with a local anesthetic or numbing cream. Ice packs may also be used by the doctor
• Once it is numbed, a fine needle is used to administer the toxin into the problem areas where it is required
• After the injections, soothing cream or cold compress is applied to minimize the discomfort and pain
• The treatment only takes a few minutes to carry out
