THERAPEUTICS

Botox is not just used for cosmetics. It has many uses in medicine for therapeutics as well and it was being studied initially for therapeutic uses when the cosmetic effects were observed in clinical trials.

WHAT IS THERAPEUTIC BOTOX?

Mechanism varies depending on what is being targeted. This varies from relaxing muscles to decreasing sweat gland activity.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Mechanism varies depending on what is being targeted. This varies from relaxing muscles to decreasing sweat gland activity. Generally neuromodulators (like BOTOX or Dysport)  work by interrupting a signal.

PRE TREATMENT & AFTER CARE

Avoid blood thinning medications and supplements.

For 3 hours: remain upright (do NOT lie down) and do not rub or massage the treated areas. Avoid makeup or use mineral based. 

For 24 hours: avoid strenuous physical activity, hot tubs, saunas, facials, and blood thinners such as alcohol, or Aspirin®/Advil®.

Bruising, swelling, redness to the injection site. 

Will my insurance cover this? 

It might! Insurance companies and plans vary so please contact your insurance provider to check. We cannot guarantee coverage. Botox requires a special authorization form for most insurance companies. 

Can I use my health spending or flex account? 

Likely, but you will need to submit a receipt for reimbursement. We cannot necessarily direct bill your insurance company. 

How much does my insurance cover?

This varies again. The cost of the medication is sometimes looked at separately from special authorization fees, doctors and injector/clinic fees so it is best to check. 

I already have my insurance forms approved elsewhere. Can I come to see you? 

Yes! We regularly administer therapeutic botox for patients from specialist and family physician clinics. Our injection fees are typically around $200. 

Can you do my insurance forms for me? 

Currently, we are not doing insurance forms. Your best chance of getting special authorization forms approved is through your family doctor or specialist.

My experience was very positive. Ally and her team are professional and answered my many questions. Ally is not only experienced but also willing to work within my budget. No upselling like other clinics do. Would highly recommend Ally.

I saw Ally for a consult and decided to go ahead with a treatment - she was incredibly knowledgeable and answered my many questions, put me very much at ease with her manner and clear expertise. The treatment went well and I’m looking forward to the results (I chose to go with a procedure that takes a while to yield the results) I would certainly recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced medical professional to deliver their cosmetic procedures. Thank you so much Ally!

I had a hydra facial with Nikki and a laser facial with her and 2nd laser facial with Kevin. They are so personable and made me feel so welcome! I have struggled with cystic zits since getting an IUD and it has cleared them up and has drastically decreased my scars! My skin is healthy and glowy! There was absolutely no downtime! It’s relatively painless! I would say max 3/10 when they zapped some baby face hairs! 10/10 recommend and bonus laser hair removal! I also see Ally for Botox! She’s very professional and never have I left unsatisfied! She’s the best ❤️

Aly is absolutely amazing!! I booked an appointment right after the New Year and totally blanked on the day. I am from out of town and when I messaged Aly she came in on her day off just to squeeze me in. She is so knowledgeable and kind and I felt absolutely so comfortable in her chair. Would definitely make the trip again just to see her!!
