Whether you're curious, cautious, or ready to book your next appointment, this episode is your one-stop guide to Botox. Dr. Dustin Portela and PA Austin Lee break down how Botox works, what areas it treats best, and how to avoid the dreaded “frozen face” look. They share tips on pricing, preparation, and post-care, plus dive into common myths and the differences between neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin. And if you're not quite ready for the needle? No worries—they’ve got recommendations for effective at-home alternatives too. As always, there’s a “Did You Know” segment, this time featuring a run-in with Snoop Dogg and a confession about flight anxiety.
