Bellevue Botox Information

Bellevue Botox provider Dr. Tarbet is a professional in facial cosmetic surgery, offering minimally invasive and non-surgical rejuvenation treatments for the face. A cosmetic facial injectable, Botox is used for the temporary relief of frown lines, forehead wrinkles, crow's feet (wrinkles around the eyes), eyebrow shaping, and elevation of the corners of the mouth.

Derived from the clostridium botulinum type A toxin, Botox is a quick and simple treatment. This injectable works by blocking a chemical known as acetylcholine, which causes muscle contraction; this is what leads to the appearance of facial wrinkling. Bellevue Botox specialist, Dr. Tarbet, will make a series of injections into the muscle within the target area(s). This softens existing wrinkles and prevents them from deepening.

Results from Botox injections are typically apparent within seven days after treatment and may last up to six months. Individuals seeking a more permanent solution to facial wrinkling may wish to consider surgical procedures, such as facelift surgery (rhytidectomy). During a consultation, Seattle facelift surgeon Dr. Tarbet can create an individualized procedure plan to meet your desires and needs.
