What is Botox?

Botox is an FDA-approved neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes facial muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles — the lines that form when you squint, frown, or raise your eyebrows. Physician-performed Botox in Mission Viejo precisely targets these muscles, smoothing existing wrinkles and preventing new lines from forming, all while preserving your natural expressions.

At MedGlo, Dr. Violeta Recalde performs every Botox injection personally. She is a board-certified physician with over 20 years of medical experience and an expert understanding of facial anatomy. There are no nurse injectors, no physician assistants, no technicians — just a doctor who takes the time to understand your goals and delivers precise, natural-looking results.

What is Botox? +
Botox is a purified protein injected in tiny amounts to relax the muscles that cause expression lines, softening wrinkles on the forehead, between the brows, and around the eyes. It's one of the most common non-surgical cosmetic treatments in the U.S.
Is Botox safe? +
Botox has been used cosmetically for over two decades and is FDA-approved for several treatment areas. It's safest when administered by a qualified medical provider — at MedGlo, every treatment is physician-led.
What should I avoid after Botox? +
Avoid rubbing the treated area, lying down, or strenuous exercise for the rest of the day. Your provider will give you a short list of aftercare tips at your visit.
What is Xeomin? +
Xeomin is an FDA-approved neurotoxin, similar to Botox, that relaxes the muscles causing frown lines and wrinkles. It's a "naked" formulation with no added proteins.
Is Xeomin better than Botox? +
