You stop catching your reflection and seeing tired. You stop wondering if people notice the lines between your brows or the creases that won’t smooth out anymore. Botox relaxes the muscles that create those expressions, so your face can rest.
Results show up within a few days. Forehead lines soften. Crow’s feet fade. That permanent furrow between your eyes eases up. You still look like you—just less worn down by it all.
And if you’ve been dealing with jaw tension or grinding your teeth at night, masseter Botox does more than slim your face. It takes the pressure off. Mornings feel different when your jaw isn’t sore and your head isn’t pounding before you’ve even had coffee.
We’ve been serving Brooklyn and the surrounding areas for over 15 years. Our practice is led by Dr. Sophie, a native New Yorker who trained at NYIT College of Osteopathic Medicine and completed her residency at Mount Sinai-Beth Israel. Every treatment plan here is supervised by doctors and nurse practitioners who are actually licensed to handle complications if they come up.
We use FDA-approved Botox and work with licensed estheticians and certified technicians. Treatments happen in about an hour, and our pricing is competitive for NYC without cutting corners on quality or safety.
Ditmas Park residents don’t have to go far. Our Brooklyn location is accessible, and we understand what it’s like to live in the city—the schedules, the stress, the wear it puts on your face.
First, you talk through what’s bothering you. Maybe it’s the lines on your forehead. Maybe it’s your jaw. We’ll look at your face, ask you to make certain expressions, and figure out where the Botox needs to go and how much you’ll need.
Then comes the injection part. It’s quick—usually 15 to 30 minutes depending on how many areas you’re treating. The needles are small. Most people say it feels like a pinch, maybe a slight sting. If you’re nervous about it, we can use a numbing cream or ice beforehand.
After that, you’re done. No downtime. You can go back to work, run errands, whatever. We’ll tell you to avoid rubbing the area and to stay upright for a few hours, but that’s about it. You’ll start seeing results in 3 to 5 days, with the full effect kicking in around two weeks. It lasts about 3 to 4 months, and then you come back if you want to keep it up.

Botox works by blocking the nerve signals that tell your facial muscles to contract. When those muscles relax, the skin above them smooths out. It’s most effective on dynamic wrinkles—the ones that form from repeated movements like squinting, frowning, or raising your eyebrows.
Common treatment areas include the forehead, the area between your eyebrows (the “elevens”), and crow’s feet around your eyes. Depending on your muscle strength and how deep the lines are, you might need anywhere from 20 to 40 units for these areas. Some people need more, some need less.
Masseter Botox is different. It targets the large jaw muscles used for chewing. In Ditmas Park and across Brooklyn, this treatment has become popular for two reasons: it slims a square jawline, and it helps with teeth grinding and TMJ pain. If you wake up with a sore jaw or your dentist has mentioned wear on your teeth, this might be worth considering. It typically takes 30 to 80 units depending on the size and strength of your masseter muscles.
Botox has been used for decades. It’s FDA-approved, and millions of treatments are performed every year. The safety record is solid when it’s done by someone who knows what they’re doing.
Botox pricing in the Ditmas Park area typically ranges from $325 to $600 per treatment area, or about $10 to $20 per unit. How much you’ll actually pay depends on how many areas you’re treating and how many units you need.
For example, treating your forehead might use 10 to 25 units. Frown lines between your eyebrows often need 15 to 30 units. Crow’s feet usually take 10 to 24 units total for both eyes. If you’re getting masseter Botox for jaw slimming or grinding, that can require 30 to 80 units depending on your muscle size.
Our pricing is competitive for the NYC area. During your consultation, we’ll assess your specific needs and give you an exact cost based on what you’re trying to achieve. Keep in mind that Botox isn’t permanent—results last about 3 to 4 months, so you’ll need maintenance treatments if you want to keep the results going.
Most people start seeing Botox results within 3 to 5 days after treatment. The full effect usually shows up around the two-week mark. Once it kicks in, results typically last between 3 and 4 months, though this can vary based on your metabolism, the treatment area, and how strong your facial muscles are.
Areas with a lot of movement—like frown lines from repeated expressions—might not last quite as long because those muscles are constantly working. Some people find that with regular treatments, Botox starts to last a bit longer because the muscles get trained to relax.
When the effects start to wear off, the lines will gradually come back. Wrinkles don’t suddenly reappear or get worse than they were before—you just return to your baseline. Most people schedule their next appointment every 3 to 4 months to maintain their results. If you wait too long between treatments, you lose some of the preventative benefits, especially when it comes to keeping static wrinkles from getting deeper.
Botox has been used since the 1970s for medical purposes and was FDA-approved for cosmetic use in 2002. Millions of treatments are performed every year, and the safety record is strong when administered by qualified medical professionals. At Dolce Aesthetics NY, all treatments are supervised by doctors and performed by licensed practitioners.
Common side effects are mild and temporary. You might have some bruising, swelling, or redness at the injection sites. Some people get a slight headache afterward. These effects usually clear up within a few hours to a couple of days.
Serious complications are rare but can happen if Botox is injected incorrectly or migrates to nearby muscles. This can cause issues like eyelid drooping, asymmetry, or a “frozen” look. That’s why it matters who’s doing your injections. Working with experienced providers who understand facial anatomy significantly reduces these risks. If you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or have certain neurological conditions, Botox isn’t recommended. We’ll go over your medical history during consultation to make sure you’re a good candidate.
Masseter Botox involves injecting Botox into the masseter muscles—the large muscles on the sides of your jaw that you use for chewing. This treatment serves two purposes: it can slim a square or wide jawline for a more contoured look, and it can relieve symptoms related to teeth grinding (bruxism) and TMJ disorders.
If you clench your jaw or grind your teeth, especially at night, your masseter muscles can become overworked and enlarged. This often leads to jaw pain, headaches, tooth wear, and even earaches. Botox relaxes these muscles, reducing the intensity of clenching and grinding. Many people notice relief within a week or two, and the cosmetic slimming effect becomes visible around 4 to 8 weeks as the muscle size decreases.
The treatment typically requires 30 to 80 units depending on how large and strong your masseters are. Results last about 3 to 6 months. While masseter Botox is considered an off-label use (the FDA hasn’t specifically approved it for this purpose), it’s widely practiced and supported by clinical research. If jaw tension or facial slimming is something you’re dealing with, this treatment might address both concerns at once.
Not if it’s done right. The “frozen” look happens when too much Botox is used or when it’s injected in the wrong places. A skilled injector knows how to relax the muscles that cause wrinkles without completely eliminating your ability to make expressions.
The goal is to soften lines and create a more rested appearance while keeping your face mobile. You should still be able to raise your eyebrows, smile, and show emotion—just without the deep creases that come with it. Natural-looking Botox is about balance and precision, not maxing out every area.
During your consultation with us, you can discuss exactly what kind of results you want. Some people prefer a subtle refresh with more movement. Others want a smoother, more dramatic reduction in lines. We’ll tailor the treatment to match your goals and your facial anatomy. If you’re worried about looking overdone, start conservatively. You can always add more units at a follow-up appointment, but you can’t take them out once they’re in. Good communication with your provider is key to getting results you’re actually happy with.
Yes, and it’s becoming more common. Preventative Botox involves starting treatments in your 20s or early 30s before deep lines have formed. The idea is to relax the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles—like forehead lines and crow’s feet—so those wrinkles never become permanent static lines.
When you make the same facial expressions over and over for years, the skin eventually creases in those spots even when your face is at rest. By using Botox early, you reduce the repetitive muscle movements that lead to those deeper wrinkles down the road. It’s not about erasing lines you don’t have yet—it’s about preventing them from forming in the first place.
Preventative Botox typically uses fewer units than corrective treatments because the muscles aren’t as developed and the lines aren’t as deep. You might only need 10 to 20 units depending on the areas you’re targeting. The treatment schedule is similar—every 3 to 4 months—but the goal is maintenance rather than correction. If you’re noticing the beginnings of fine lines or you have a family history of deep wrinkles, starting Botox earlier can be a smart move. It’s worth discussing with us to see if it makes sense for your age and skin condition.
