Botox Treatment



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I am thinking of Botox treatment being in my 50s. I have talked to few doctors like. Francis form Francis NY Plastic Surgery but want some personal suggestion if anyone has??

Dr has explained me everything very well but a bit confused. How much time it takes to recover, and one more thing anyone has experience with Dr. Francis?

I get Botox a couple times a year and love it. It feels like a sweat bee sting. Just kind of a like annoying poke. No pain really. You have red spots for a few hours and that's pretty much it. The total effect take a about a week. Besides its amazing work on wrinkles it will pretty much resolve any Migraine issues too.

I get Botox apparently. Like Knitchik said, you get little red injection site bumps for a few hours and it feels like a bee sting. You have to keep your head upright though so the botox doesn't move for a few hours, but otherwise it's great. It got rid of my forehead wrinkles and it serves as a preventative.

Thank you for posting this thread. I have not had Botox but I'm planning to get it soon and I'm excited for it. It was one of my weight loss rewards. I'm looking forward to getting rid of the eye wrinkles. It's nice to read others describe what it feels like and how long until you see results.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
