Botox Treatment in Anchorage
Refresh Your Appearance with Natural-Looking Results
Botox Treatment Overview
At New Age Med Spa in South Anchorage, our expert providers specialize in Botox treatments that reduce wrinkles while maintaining your natural expressions. Our personalized approach ensures you look refreshed, not frozen, with results that boost your confidence.
What is Botox and How Does it Work?
Botox is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that temporarily reduces the appearance of facial wrinkles by relaxing the underlying muscles. The active ingredient, botulinum toxin type A, works by blocking nerve signals to specific muscles, preventing them from contracting and forming wrinkles.
At New Age Med Spa in Anchorage, we use genuine Botox Cosmetic from Allergan, ensuring you receive the highest quality treatment with predictable, consistent results. Our expert providers precisely target specific facial muscles while leaving others untouched, allowing for natural facial expressions and movement.
Areas We Treat with Botox
Forehead Lines
Horizontal lines across the forehead respond exceptionally well to Botox treatment. Our providers carefully administer the right amount to smooth these lines while maintaining natural movement and expression.
Frown Lines (Glabellar Lines)
These vertical lines between your eyebrows, also known as "11 lines," can make you appear angry or concerned even when you're not. Botox relaxes these muscles, creating a more approachable, refreshed appearance.
Crow's Feet
The fine lines that extend from the corners of your eyes can age your appearance. Our precise Botox application softens these lines while preserving your natural smile.
Additional Treatment Areas
Bunny lines (nose wrinkles)
Lip lines
Chin dimpling
Neck bands
Jawline definition
Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating)

The Botox Experience at New Age Med Spa
Your Consultation
Your Botox journey begins with a personalized consultation with one of our expert providers. We'll discuss your aesthetic goals, evaluate your facial anatomy, and create a customized treatment plan designed specifically for you. We take the time to understand your concerns and desired outcomes to ensure you receive the perfect amount of Botox for natural-looking results.
During Your Treatment
Your Botox treatment at our South Anchorage med spa is quick and comfortable, typically taking just 15-30 minutes. Here's what to expect:
Your provider will cleanse the treatment areas
A very fine needle will be used to inject Botox into specific muscles
Ice may be applied to minimize any discomfort
You'll receive aftercare instructions for optimal results
Most clients describe the injections as feeling like a quick pinch, and no anesthesia is required. You can return to most activities immediately after your appointment.
After Your Treatment
Following your Botox treatment, you may experience slight redness or swelling at the injection sites, which typically resolves within hours. Results begin to appear within 3-5 days, with full results visible after 14 days.
To maintain your refreshed appearance, we recommend follow-up treatments every 3-4 months. Many clients find that with regular treatments, they need less product over time as the muscles become conditioned to being relaxed.
I was nervous about trying Botox for the first time, but the team at New Age Med Spa made the experience incredible. What sets them apart is how they took the time to educate me about the treatment—explaining exactly how Botox works, what to expect, and answering all my questions.
My provider truly listened to my concerns about looking "frozen" or overdone. She created a customized plan that addressed my specific areas of concern while ensuring I could still express myself naturally. The results are exactly what I wanted—I look refreshed and more youthful, but completely natural. Friends have commented that I look "well-rested" without realizing I've had anything done!
Three months later, I'm still loving my results and have already booked my next appointment. If you're looking for providers who prioritize education, listening, and natural-looking results, I can't recommend New Age Med Spa enough.

FAQs
How long does Botox last?
Botox typically lasts 3-4 months, though this can vary based on individual factors such as metabolism, muscle strength, and the area treated. Some clients find that with regular treatments, results may last longer as muscles become conditioned to being relaxed.
Is Botox treatment painful?
Most clients report minimal discomfort during Botox injections, describing it as a quick pinch. The treatment uses very fine needles, and our experienced providers work quickly and precisely to minimize any discomfort. No anesthesia is required, though we can provide ice to numb the area if desired.
How soon will I see results from my Botox treatment?
You'll begin to notice results within 3-5 days after your treatment, with full results developing after approximately 14 days. This gradual onset creates a natural-looking improvement rather than an obvious, sudden change.
What's the difference between Botox and dermal fillers?
Botox works by relaxing muscles that cause wrinkles, making it ideal for dynamic wrinkles that appear with facial expressions. Dermal fillers, by contrast, add volume beneath the skin to fill in static wrinkles and restore lost facial volume. Many clients benefit from a combination of both treatments for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

Is Botox safe?
Yes, Botox is FDA-approved and has been safely used for cosmetic purposes for over 20 years. When administered by our trained medical professionals, Botox has an excellent safety profile. During your consultation, we'll review your medical history to ensure Botox is appropriate for you.
At what age should I start getting Botox?
There's no specific "right age" to begin Botox treatments. Some clients start in their mid-20s as a preventative measure, while others begin in their 30s, 40s, or beyond when wrinkles become more noticeable. During your consultation, our providers can assess your facial anatomy and make personalized recommendations.
How should I prepare for my Botox appointment?
To prepare for your Botox treatment at our Anchorage med spa, we recommend:
Avoiding blood-thinning medications and supplements (like aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, and vitamin E) for 1-2 weeks before treatment, if medically appropriate
Avoiding alcohol for 24 hours before your appointment
Coming to your appointment with a clean face, free of makeup
Informing your provider of any medications you're taking or medical conditions you have
What should I avoid after Botox treatment?
For the best results after your Botox treatment, we recommend:
Avoiding touching or rubbing the treated areas for 24 hours
Staying upright for 4 hours after treatment
Avoiding strenuous exercise for 24 hours
Skipping saunas, hot tubs, and excessive heat for 24 hours
