As we age and the elasticity in our skin begins to decline, we accumulate facial wrinkles that can add years to the complexion and become challenging to conceal. At Spa Asteria, we offer many cosmetic services to diminish signs of aging and help men and women achieve healthy, radiant skin. Dr. Vanessa M. Hart works with patients in and around Park City, UT, and is qualified to safely provide BOTOX injections.
BOTOX is a cosmetic injectable used to diminish fine lines and wrinkles. Also referred to as a wrinkle relaxer, BOTOX is carefully injected into specific muscles to slow down or halt contractions to allow the overlying skin time to smooth and heal. BOTOX may be used to treat facial wrinkles, including Crow’s feet, forehead creases, frown lines, and so much more. At Spa Asteria, Dr. Hart can create customized BOTOX injection treatments based on each patient’s personal cosmetic goals.
Both men and women potentially reap numerous benefits from using BOTOX injections, including:
While BOTOX injections are considered wrinkle relaxers that are injected directly into muscle tissue, dermal fillers, which are mostly hyaluronic acid-based, are cosmetic treatments that are injected superficially. While both BOTOX and dermal fillers can smooth out facial wrinkles, dermal fillers are primarily used to add volume to hollow, thinning skin. If you are interested in learning more about dermal fillers, or using both treatments in conjunction with each other, consult with Dr. Hart for additional information.

Dr. Hart will review your medical history and determine if you can safely receive BOTOX injections. Patients with specific medical or dermatological conditions may not qualify or may be better suited for alternative cosmetic treatments.
Patients come to a scheduled appointment in Park City, UT, and receive their BOTOX injection within the comforts of one of our private treatment rooms. Since the injection takes approximately 5 – 10 minutes to complete, many patients have the option of receiving treatment on the same day as their initial consultation. Once the injection site is sanitized, a small needle is injected into the tissue to release the BOTOX into the underlying muscle tissue. Patients generally feel a mild stinging sensation. Once your treatment is finished, you may leave our clinic and resume normal daily activities.
BOTOX injections provide temporary outcomes that typically last a few months, depending on a patient's skin, the severity of their wrinkles, and their overall reaction to the injection. Patients who would like to maintain their cosmetic outcomes will need to schedule future injections according to their customized treatment plan.
