Looking in the mirror and noticing new lines around your eyes can feel frustrating, especially when they make you appear tired or older than you feel inside. These wrinkles develop gradually from years of facial expressions, but they don’t have to be your permanent reality.

Eye Center of St. Augustine offers Botox® and Xeomin®, two minimally invasive options that can help restore the smooth, rested appearance you remember.

How Do These Treatments Work?

The wrinkles that appear around your eyes and across your forehead don’t just happen randomly. They develop because certain facial muscles contract repeatedly throughout your life, such as every time you laugh, concentrate, or shield your eyes from bright sunlight. Over time, these movements create creases in the overlying skin.

Both Botox and Xeomin work by gently calming these overactive muscles. When the muscles relax, the skin above them smooths out naturally. Lines and wrinkles become softer or disappear entirely, creating a refreshed appearance without changing your natural expressions.

More Than Just Cosmetic Benefits

While many people seek these treatments to look younger and feel more confident, they serve important practical purposes too.

Some patients experience persistent eyelid twitching that disrupts their daily activities or causes embarrassment. Others deal with uncomfortable facial spasms that affect their quality of life.

These same injectable treatments that reduce wrinkles can provide significant relief from these conditions and others. By targeting the specific muscles causing the problem, we can help restore comfort and normalcy to your day-to-day experience.

Why Choose The Eye Center of St. Augustine?

What sets our practice apart is the expertise behind every injection.

Our doctors specialize in the intricate anatomy of the eyes and face, an area that requires precision and deep knowledge. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach performed by just anyone with a syringe. Your treatment is administered by physicians who understand the delicate structures around your eyes better than anyone.

This specialized knowledge means safer procedures, more natural-looking results, and the confidence that comes from being in exceptionally qualified hands.

What to Expect During Botox or Xeomin Treatment

The treatment itself is remarkably quick and straightforward. Most appointments take just minutes, with minimal discomfort.

There’s no lengthy recovery period, and many patients return to their regular activities immediately afterward. Results typically begin appearing within a few days and can last several months, though individual experiences vary.
