What Is Botox?
Botox is a Health Canada–approved injectable derived from purified botulinum toxin type A. It works by temporarily blocking nerve signals to specific facial muscles, preventing them from contracting, smoothing dynamic wrinkles like forehead lines, frown lines, and crow's feet without altering your natural expressions.
At Nova Skin & Wellness Centre, we use only Health Canada–approved neuromodulators administered by medically trained injectors in a clinical setting. All treatment areas are confirmed during your personalized consultation at our Vancouver clinic. Whether you're exploring Botox cost in Vancouver for the first time or returning for ongoing treatment, every appointment begins with a thorough facial assessment and a plan built around your unique anatomy.
What It Helps With
- Forehead Lines: Smooth horizontal lines caused by natural expression and repetitive movement
- Frown Lines (11s): Soften the vertical lines between the brows for a more relaxed, approachable look
- Crow's Feet: Reduce fine lines that fan out from the outer corners of the eyes
- Brow Lift: A subtle lift to open and refresh the eye area without surgery
- Bunny Lines: Smooth the lines that form on the nose bridge when you smile
- Lip Flip: Define and softly evert the upper lip for a fuller, more refined appearance
- Chin Dimpling: Reduce the orange-peel texture of the chin at rest or in motion
- Jaw Slimming (Masseter): Slim and contour an overactive or enlarged jaw muscle for a softer facial shape
- Neck Bands: Soften vertical platysmal cords for a smoother, more refined neckline
- Hyperhidrosis: Effectively treat excessive sweating in the underarms, palms, or feet
What to Expect
At Nova Skin & Wellness Centre, we believe an informed patient is a confident patient. Here is exactly what your Botox appointment looks like from start to finish.
Your appointment begins with a detailed facial assessment. We review your medical history, discuss your aesthetic goals, and map out the specific muscles to be treated, with no pressure, no rushing, and no one-size-fits-all approach.
Before your treatment, to minimize bruising and ensure the best possible outcome:
- Avoid alcohol for at least 24–48 hours prior to your appointment
- Avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, and other NSAIDs for 7 days before treatment (if medically safe to do so, never stop prescribed medications without consulting your physician)
- Discontinue blood-thinning supplements such as fish oil, Vitamin E, and ginkgo biloba one week prior
- Arrive with a clean face, free of makeup or skincare products
Additional Information
How Long Does It Take?
When Do Botox Results Appear?
Initial changes become visible within 3–5 days, with full, settled results appearing at 10–14 days. We recommend a complimentary follow-up at 2 weeks to assess your results and make any minor adjustments if needed. Results typically last 3–4 months depending on the treatment area, product used, and individual metabolism. With regular maintenance treatments, many patients find their results last longer over time as the targeted muscles gradually weaken.
Recovery After Botox Injections
There is minimal to no downtime following Botox. After your appointment:
- Keep your head upright and avoid lying flat for 4 hours
- Avoid strenuous exercise, heat exposure (saunas, steam rooms, hot tubs), and alcohol for 24 hours
- Do not rub, massage, or apply pressure to treated areas for at least 24 hours
- Wait at least 2 weeks before scheduling facials, chemical peels, microneedling, or laser treatments in the same area
Does It Hurt?
Botox injections use an ultra-fine needle and are generally very well tolerated. Most patients describe the sensation as a brief, mild pinch, over in seconds. A topical numbing cream can be applied prior to treatment for added comfort if desired.

Botox Treatment in Vancouver FAQ's
Is Botox injection Safe?
Botox is Health Canada–approved and safe when performed by a medically trained professional in a clinical setting.
How Much Does Botox Cost in Vancouver?
Botox pricing in Vancouver varies depending on the number of areas treated and the number of units required to achieve your goals. Pricing is discussed transparently during your consultation before any treatment begins so there are no surprises.
How Often Should I Get Botox?
Most patients return every 3–4 months for maintenance. With consistent treatment over time, many patients find they require fewer units as the targeted muscles naturally weaken and their results begin to last longer. Your injector will recommend a maintenance schedule based on your individual results.
Will I Look Natural?
Natural results are our standard, not our goal, they are the only kind of results we deliver. We use conservative dosing, anatomy-based placement, and a light, precision technique to maintain full natural expression and movement. You should look refreshed and rested, not frozen, not different.
