You’re not looking to freeze your face or lose your ability to smile. You want to smooth the lines that make you look perpetually tired or stressed when you’re neither. Botox injections relax the muscles that create forehead creases, frown lines between your brows, and crow’s feet around your eyes—the ones that age you faster than you’d like.
Within 3 to 7 days, those lines soften. Your face looks refreshed, not different. You still move, still express, still look like yourself. Just younger, more rested, and less like you’ve been grinding through 60-hour work weeks.
Results last 3 to 4 months, sometimes longer depending on the area treated and how your body metabolizes the neurotoxin. No surgery, no recovery time, no excuses needed for taking an afternoon off. You walk in, get treated, and walk out. That’s it.
We’ve been serving Kew Gardens and the greater Queens area with FDA-approved Botox treatments for years. Our practice is led by Jennifer DiLandro, a nurse practitioner with an 18-year track record and thousands of injections under her belt. She’s not new to this. She’s ranked among Allergan’s Top 250 injectors in the country and holds Expert Level V certification—credentials that mean something when someone’s coming at your face with a needle.
Kew Gardens is a neighborhood where people value authenticity and quality without the Manhattan markup. You’ve got access to top-tier restaurants, the Kew Gardens Cinemas, Forest Park, and professionals who actually live here and understand what locals want. We operate the same way: high-level expertise, competitive pricing, and treatments that respect your time and your face.
You start with a consultation. This isn’t a sales pitch—it’s a conversation about what’s bothering you, what you want to address, and whether Botox is the right move. Maybe it’s the “11” lines between your brows that make you look angry in every Zoom meeting. Maybe it’s crow’s feet that showed up uninvited. Or maybe you’re clenching your jaw so hard at night that your dentist is worried about your molars.
Once you’re clear on the plan, the actual injections take 10 to 30 minutes depending on how many areas you’re treating. A fine needle delivers small amounts of botulinum toxin into specific facial muscles. It’s not painless, but it’s quick—most people describe it as a slight pinch or sting. No anesthesia needed.
After that, you’re done. No bandages, no downtime, no need to hide out for a week. You might see some minor redness or slight swelling at the injection sites, but it fades fast. You’ll start noticing smoother skin within a few days, with full results kicking in around the one-week mark. From there, you’re looking at 3 to 4 months of results before you’d consider a touch-up.

Botox works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles that cause wrinkles when you frown, squint, or raise your eyebrows. It’s FDA-approved for treating forehead lines, frown lines (glabellar lines), and crow’s feet. It’s also used off-label for things like masseter Botox, which slims a square jawline and relieves tension from teeth grinding or TMJ disorders.
If you’re dealing with jaw pain, headaches from clenching, or a bulky lower face caused by an overactive masseter muscle, Botox can help. It relaxes the muscle, reduces its size over time, and gives your jawline a more tapered, defined look. This treatment has become especially popular in Kew Gardens and across Queens, where people want functional relief and aesthetic improvement in one shot.
Botox won’t fix sagging skin, deep static wrinkles that are there even when your face is relaxed, or volume loss in your cheeks. For those, you’d be looking at fillers or other treatments. But for dynamic wrinkles—the ones caused by movement—it’s one of the most effective, proven options available. And because Kew Gardens residents tend to be informed and no-nonsense, it’s worth knowing that this isn’t a miracle cure. It’s a targeted treatment that does exactly what it’s designed to do.
Botox is priced per unit, and the total cost depends on how many units you need and which areas you’re treating. On average, you’re looking at $10 to $20 per unit, though prices can vary based on the provider and location. A typical forehead treatment might use 10 to 20 units, while treating crow’s feet could take 8 to 12 units per side. Frown lines often require 12 to 20 units.
If you’re getting masseter Botox for jaw slimming or TMJ relief, expect to use 40 to 60 units total (20 to 30 per side), which makes it a bit more expensive than treating smaller areas. All in, most people spend anywhere from $300 to $800 per session depending on what they’re addressing. We offer competitive pricing for the Kew Gardens area, and you can get a clear cost breakdown during your free consultation.
Most people see results last 3 to 4 months. Some areas, like the masseter muscle, can last closer to 6 months, especially if you’ve had the treatment a few times and the muscle has started to shrink. Your metabolism, muscle strength, and how many units were used all play a role in how long the effects stick around.
After your first treatment, you’ll get a sense of your body’s timeline. Some people come back every 3 months like clockwork. Others stretch it to 4 or 5 months before they notice movement creeping back in. The good news is that with regular treatments, a lot of people find they need fewer units over time because the muscles stay relaxed longer. It’s not a permanent fix, but it’s predictable, and you’re always in control of when and whether you come back.
It’s not painless, but it’s not unbearable either. Most people describe the sensation as a quick pinch or sting. The needles used for Botox are very fine, and the injections themselves take just seconds per site. If you’re particularly sensitive, we can offer a topical numbing cream or ice to dull the area first, but most people skip it and get through the appointment just fine.
As for downtime, there isn’t any. You might have some minor redness, slight swelling, or small bruises at the injection sites, but these usually fade within a few hours to a day. You can go back to work, hit the gym, run errands—whatever you need to do. The only real restriction is avoiding lying down flat or doing intense workouts for a few hours after treatment, just to keep the Botox from migrating to unintended areas. Beyond that, you’re good to go.
Yes. Masseter Botox is one of the most effective treatments for people who grind their teeth, clench their jaw, or deal with TMJ-related pain and tension. When Botox is injected into the masseter muscles (the large muscles on the sides of your jaw), it relaxes them and reduces their activity. This takes pressure off your jaw joint, eases headaches, and prevents the kind of tooth damage that comes from chronic grinding.
Beyond the functional benefits, masseter Botox also slims the lower face. If you have a square or wide jawline caused by bulky masseter muscles, the treatment gradually reduces the muscle size over a few months, creating a more tapered, V-shaped look. Results usually start showing up around 2 to 4 weeks, with the full effect visible by 6 to 8 weeks. And because the masseter is a strong muscle, the effects tend to last longer than other areas—often 4 to 6 months or more. It’s a dual-purpose treatment that addresses both pain and aesthetics, which is why it’s become so popular in Kew Gardens and across NYC.
Not if it’s done right. The frozen, overdone look happens when too much Botox is used or when it’s injected into the wrong spots by someone who doesn’t understand facial anatomy. A skilled injector knows how to relax the muscles that cause wrinkles while preserving your natural movement and expressions. You should still be able to raise your eyebrows, smile, and show emotion—you’ll just do it without the deep creases.
Our approach is conservative and customized. During your consultation, we’ll talk through what you want and what you don’t want. If you’re worried about looking overdone, say so. The goal is to make you look refreshed and rested, not like a different person. Most people who get Botox done well hear things like “You look great” or “Did you get more sleep?” rather than “Did you get work done?” That’s the sweet spot, and that’s what good technique delivers.
Botox is FDA-approved and has been used safely for decades in both cosmetic and medical applications. When administered by a trained, experienced medical professional, the risks are minimal. The most common side effects are temporary and mild: redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites. Some people get a slight headache afterward, but it usually resolves within a day or two.
Serious complications are rare and almost always linked to inexperienced injectors or improper technique. That’s why it matters who’s holding the syringe. When you come to us, you’re working with a nurse practitioner who’s been doing this for 18 years and has injected thousands of patients. We use only FDA-approved products, follow strict safety protocols, and take the time to assess your medical history and any contraindications before treatment. If you’ve had an allergic reaction to Botox in the past or have certain neurological conditions, it may not be right for you—but that’s something we’ll discuss upfront. For the vast majority of people, Botox is safe, effective, and one of the most well-researched cosmetic treatments available.
