Learn how our Botox clinic in Calgary can help you look and feel your best.

Smooth wrinkles without downtime and slow down the aging process without changing your look.

Prevent and treat skin aging with neuromodulators (wrinkle relaxers) at our clinics in Calgary. With neuromodulator treatments you can age the way you want to.

Neuromodulators are injections of botulinum toxin that block the nerve impulses that cause facial muscle contractions. Commercially known as Botox, Dysport or Xeomin, neuromodulators relax your muscles and skin to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and help to prevent the formation of static lines, which will become more apparent and progress to deep lines as we age if not treated. While the outside world might not notice that you have done this treatment, you will look refreshed and feel good. When we feel good, we look good; That’s the true power of neuromodulator injections.

How It Works


There are many factors that can cause facial lines. Repeated muscle contractions from squinting, frowning, or raising eyebrows cause skin to furrow and fold, gradually resulting in the formation of facial lines.

A neuromodulator treatment with Botulinum toxin utilizes tiny needles to relax targeted muscles around the treatment area; transmission of motor signals from the nerves are temporarily stopped. Dynamic wrinkles are caused by repeated muscle contraction. In the absence of signals from the nerves, the muscles aren’t able to contract, leading to a softening of the wrinkles.

What To Expect


Before each Botox treatment, our expertly trained injectors will discuss your treatment goals and perform a facial analysis to determine which areas need treatment. Some patients who have received neuromodulator treatments indicate that the injections feel like a pinch.

Following your Botox injections at our Calgary clinic, patients experience little more than pinpoint redness around treatment sites, which can be easily concealed with a complimentary mineral makeup touch-up. Results take effect, subtly and gradually, between three and 14 days of treatment. There is minimal downtime with neuromodulator treatment, so you can return to your daily activities after you leave our office.

Neuromodulator treatments are Health Canada approved for frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) and have given millions of people around the world the youthful look they wanted. It is also widely used to treat other facial wrinkles, such as crow’s feet and forehead wrinkles, caused by repeated muscle contractions. These are referred to as dynamic wrinkles.

When expertly provided, neuromodulator treatments help you look fabulous for your age and soften lines that might make you look tired, angry or stressed. It’s an easy way to get that well-rested, energized glow so how you look on the outside matches how you feel on the inside.

What makes an exceptional Botox Doctor?

Will my face look
overdone or unnatural?


When neuromodulator treatments are performed, the skill of the injector is very important.  You can trust that at Preventous you will be treated by someone who is licensed, trained, and a medical expert in facial anatomy so you will look like yourself—only with less noticeable lines. No one should be able to tell you’ve had anything done.

At what age should I start getting Botox?


When you start at a younger age, there will generally be fewer fine lines and wrinkles to work with as you get older. It means that with appropriate frequency and amount, your muscles become less strong, and you may not need as many botulinum toxin injections or need it as frequently as someone who starts at an older age. Prejuvenation – the combination of the words prevention and rejuvenation – aims to cover both the preventative and restorative approaches to skin health. Instead of trying to turn back the effects of time, we focus on non- or minimally invasive procedures before time does its damage.

FAQs About Botox Treatments


What is Botox?

Botox is a cosmetic form of botulinum toxin and is one of the most popular injectables available. Botox is a non-surgical treatment designed to reduce signs of aging and can be used to smooth forehead lines, frown lines, and lip lines and even soften an angular jawline. It was approved in 2001 by Health Canada as an anti-wrinkle treatment for the expression lines between the eyebrows.

Since 2001, it has become the most popular minimally invasive cosmetic treatment in Canada and the United States.

What are neuromodulators?

Neuromodulators are cosmetic injections of botulinum toxin used to treat frown lines, wrinkles, and crow’s feet. A small amount of neuromodulator is injected into the patient’s underlying facial muscle, which causes the muscle to relax and slowly smooth out the appearance of wrinkles and overlying skin.

Why get Botox injections?

In Calgary fillers and Botox treatments are commonly sought by patients looking for ways to reduce signs of aging without compromising their natural beauty.

Botox can help soften lines around the face and address wrinkles, crow’s feet, and additional signs of aging — resulting in a well-rested glow that helps patients look as good as they feel.

Additionally, patients may inquire about getting Botox for hyperhidrosis as a clinically approved way to address excess sweating in the underarm area.

Are Botox injections safe?

Botox injections performed under the care of a licensed and highly skilled physician or healthcare provider are a safe and effective way to reduce signs of aging and deal with overlying skin on the face and neck.

At Preventous Cosmetic Clinic, our CalgaryBotox treatments are carried out by highly-trained physicians who are experts in their field and have been helping patients achieve results since 2004. Your physician will evaluate your facial characteristics, discuss your treatment expectations, and provide recommendations for injectables based on these factors.

What is in Botox?

Botox® is a sterile lyophilized form of Type A botulinum toxin approved for cosmetic purposes. This protein complex is produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum.

When used for cosmetic purposes, a Botox injection will block the ability of underlying facial muscles to contract, which reduces and softens existing facial wrinkles.

How long does Botox take to work?

After receiving a Botox injection in Calgary at our clinic, it may take anywhere from two to four days to notice the effects of the treatment. This is due to the Botulinum toxin being injected into the muscles that cause the wrinkles, not the wrinkles themselves. Gradually, the muscles will no longer be able to contract, and the skin will begin to soften.

Patients will notice the full effects of their injections after approximately two weeks, and improvements are designed to last up to four months. As the muscles begin to regress to their original functions, wrinkles may reappear, requiring another treatment.

How long does Botox last?

Knowing how long Botox lasts is vital in determining if this cosmetic treatment is right for you.

While treatment results can vary from patient to patient, improvements can last upwards of four months. After that time, facial muscles will begin to perform their regular contractions and wrinkles or frown lines may reappear, requiring another treatment.

At Preventous, we offer free consultations for new clients interested in Botox injections in Calgary. Schedule an appointment with our team today, and we’ll answer all of your Botox-related questions.

When is the best age to get Botox?

Everyone ages at different paces, and when wrinkles or lines appear on the face, Botox can be an effective treatment to safely reduce those signs of aging. But what is the best age for Botox?

The reality is that there is no perfect time to get Botox or neuromodulators.

In some cases, patients in their 20s will seek injections to prevent future wrinkles or counteract signs of aging brought on by excessive sun damage or tanning beds. Others in their thirties and forties will look to Botox to treat early signs of aging, while patients in their fifties, sixties, and seventies can enjoy softened skin and reduced wrinkles that are more prominently featured.

Botox vs Dermal Fillers

While both are types of injectables, there are important differences to consider between Botox and dermal fillers before deciding which one is right for your skin.

Botox is a neurotoxin that temporarily weakens the muscles of the face and is used to treat wrinkles, fine lines, crow’s feet, or lines between the eyebrows. In some cases, Botox is used as a preventative measure to prevent deep wrinkles or signs of aging.

Dermal fillers, whether Restylane dermal filler or Radiesse fillers, are gel-like products designed to increase volume and define the shape of the cheeks, lips, or nose.

Botox vs Juvéderm

Botox is a cosmetic treatment designed to temporarily weaken or paralyze facial muscles, reducing the look of wrinkles and frown lines. It’s used as a preventative tool against severe signs of aging or to soften current lines on the face.

Juvéderm is a type of dermal filler containing hyaluronic acid. This naturally occurring substance is produced in the body, making it work seamlessly with a gen injection. Juvéderm is typically used to add volume and hydration to various areas of the face, including cheeks and lips.

How often can I get a Botox injection?

On average, Botox injections last three to four months. After this time, when wrinkles reappear and facial muscles return to their normal functions, you can schedule another treatment with your physician.

Is Botox painful?

A Botox injection is delivered using a very fine needle, so there is almost no pain experienced, and no anesthesia is required. Your nurse or physician may numb the area with an anesthetic cream or cold pack for added comfort.

What are the side effects of Botox?

Although uncommon, there are potential side effects you should be aware of before scheduling your first treatment, including:

  • Dry Mouth or Eyes
  • Neck Pain
  • Swelling or Redness
  • Pain or Discomfort
  • Double or Blurred Vision
  • Feeling Dizzy or Faint
  • Other Asthma Symptoms
  • Headache
  • Tiredness
  • Allergic Reactions (Itching, Redness, Welts etc.)

Your physician will explain the extent of the possible side effects and answer any questions you may have regarding your treatment.

Is there a recovery time for Botox?

Botox treatments have no downtime or recovery time, though it can take anywhere from two to four days for facial muscles to begin to soften and to see the first effects.

What will the day of my Botox treatment look like?

On the day of your Botox treatment, you’ll be asked to come into our Botox clinic early to fill out the appropriate forms and consult with your doctor or a member of the Preventous team. If you’ve already done your complimentary consultation and this is your first appointment, we have licensed medical aestheticians and nurses on hand to answer any questions or address any concerns.

During your appointment, you’ll be seated in a comfortable reclining chair, and your physician will determine the appropriate dosage amount based on the degree of wrinkles and other important factors. Botox is administered through several small injections using a fine needle for a nearly painless experience. Treatments typically last 10 minutes, and there’s no recovery time required.

At what age should I start getting Botox?

When you start at a younger age, you will generally have fewer fine lines and wrinkles to work with as you age. It means that with appropriate frequency and amount, your muscles become less strong, and you may not need as many botulinum toxin injections or need it as frequently as someone who starts at an older age.

Prejuvenation – the combination of the words prevention and rejuvenation – aims to cover both the preventative and restorative approaches to skin health. Instead of trying to turn back the effects of time, we focus on non- or minimally invasive procedures before time does its damage.
