Serving patients from Santa Ana, Irvine, Anaheim and all of Orange County
Fine lines and wrinkles of the upper face can dramatically age your appearance. Frown lines, crow’s feet, forehead lines, and brow lines are all the result of stress, diminishing eyesight, smiling, sun damage, and other environmental factors. Many people find preventing wrinkles of the upper face almost impossible. At our practice in Santa Ana Botox Cosmetic is a premier choice among treatments that target and diminish the look of wrinkles, offering patients a path to a smoother, more youthful complexion, complemented by our suite of services including Dysport® and Xeomin®, each tailored to meet diverse aesthetic needs.
Reclaim Youthful Confidence
Botox, or Botulinum toxin, is a popular non-surgical treatment used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It works by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles that cause wrinkles, giving the skin a smoother and more youthful appearance. Botox is commonly used to treat areas such as the forehead, crow’s feet, and frown lines between the brows, but it also has a variety of medical applications, such as treating chronic migraines, excessive sweating, and certain muscle disorders.
Discover Versatility
Botox is not just about reducing wrinkles—it’s a comprehensive solution for achieving a rejuvenated and refreshed appearance without the need for surgery. Beyond its cosmetic advantages, Botox can also address several medical concerns.
When considering treatments with Botox Santa Ana patients that visit us can achieve the following:
Is Botox Right for You?
Ideal candidates for Botox are individuals who are looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles without undergoing surgery. You may be a good candidate if:
Understanding the Science Behind It
Botox works by blocking nerve signals in the muscles where it is injected. This prevents the muscles from contracting, which in turn softens and reduces the appearance of wrinkles. The effect is localized, meaning that it only affects the area where it is injected, allowing for targeted treatment of specific facial concerns. It’s important to note that Botox does not fill in wrinkles but instead relaxes the muscles that cause them, providing a smoother skin surface.
Frown lines between the eyebrows develop from stress, frowning, sun damage, and other environmental factors. BOTOX Cosmetic, Dysport®, and XEOMIN® relax the muscles, correcting the appearance of moderate to severe wrinkles between the eyebrows. They can also provide noticeable correction to forehead lines and elevate the eyebrows.
Crow’s feet are wrinkles that develop around the outer edge of the eyes and are usually the result of prolonged eye strain, squinting, stress, or other habitual facial expressions. BOTOX Cosmetic is an FDA-approved nerve inhibitor that allows the muscles around the eyes to relax, softening the appearance of crow’s feet.
As nerve inhibitors, BOTOX, Dysport®, and XEOMIN® can help correct conditions other than facial wrinkles. These injectables can be used to treat:
Choosing the Right Treatment for Your Needs
While both Botox and dermal fillers are used to combat signs of aging, they work in very different ways. Botox is ideal for treating dynamic wrinkles—those caused by muscle movement, such as frown lines and crow’s feet. Dermal fillers, on the other hand, are used to add volume and structure to the face, making them effective for deeper lines, sagging skin, and volume loss in areas like the cheeks and lips. A combination of both treatments can often provide a comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation.
Experience Noticeable Changes
Botox delivers subtle yet effective enhancements, gradually revealing smoother and more youthful-looking skin. You can expect visible improvements within just a few days of your treatment, with full results appearing in about two weeks.
Easy Recovery with Minimal Downtime
Botox requires minimal recovery time. You can return to your daily activities immediately after your appointment. However, to ensure the best results, it’s recommended to avoid the following for at least 24 hours:
You may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, but these side effects typically resolve within a few days.
Invest in Your Appearance

Many patients find Botox to be a worthwhile investment, offering a non-surgical way to maintain a youthful appearance and enhance their confidence without the need for more invasive procedures.

Embrace Comfort & Convenience
Dr. Michael A. Jazayeri, a distinguished plastic surgeon in Santa Ana, California, strongly advocates for patient comfort and safety during all procedures. His comprehensive approach to patient care includes using local anesthesia for various surgical procedures.
Local anesthesia is a type of anesthetic used to numb a specific area of the body where a surgical procedure will be performed. It allows the patient to remain awake and comfortable while avoiding the potential risks and side effects associated with general anesthesia. In Dr. Jazayeri's hands, an array of procedures can be carried out under local anesthesia, often leading to quicker recovery times and lower complication rates. These procedures include many facelifts, liposuctions, neck lifts, Brazilian butt lifts (BBLs), mini tummy tuck and, in certain cases, even breast and arm lift.
By taking advantage of local anesthesia's potential, Dr. Michael A. Jazayeri strives to make cosmetic and reconstructive surgery more accessible, comfortable, and patient-centered. His commitment to this safe anesthesia approach in Santa Ana, California, signals a new era in plastic surgery where patient comfort and safety are at the forefront.
