Erase Fine Lines and Embrace a Youthful Glow

Are you frustrated by wrinkles and fine lines that make you appear older or constantly tired? These signs of aging can affect your confidence and how you feel about yourself. At Nashville Plastic Surgery Institute (NPSI), we understand the desire to look as vibrant as you feel. Our expert team, led by world-renowned plastic surgeon Dr. Jacob Unger, offers BOTOX® treatments to smooth away those unwelcome lines. With a compassionate and professional approach, we provide personalized care to help you regain a youthful appearance and boost your self-esteem.

What Is BOTOX?

BOTOX is an FDA-approved, minimally invasive cosmetic treatment designed to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and fine lines. It utilizes a purified form of botulinum toxin type A to temporarily relax the underlying muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles—those caused by repetitive facial expressions like frowning or squinting. By inhibiting nerve signals to these muscles, BOTOX smooths the overlying skin, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

At Nashville Plastic Surgery Institute (NPSI), the procedure is performed by our skilled professionals under the guidance of Dr. Jacob Unger. The treatment involves a series of small injections using fine needles, targeting specific areas such as the forehead, between the eyebrows (glabellar lines), and around the eyes (crow’s feet). The process typically takes about 10 to 15 minutes and requires minimal downtime, allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately. Results become noticeable within a few days, with optimal effects appearing within two weeks and lasting up to four months.
