FAQ: Smooth Lines, Restore Confidence, and Reveal Radiant Skin
Your Questions Answered About Botox, Glabellar Lines, and more. Enhance your natural beauty, and choose the right aesthetic treatments — all from trusted experts in Tyler, TX.
1. How can I get rid of wrinkles and fine lines?
At Black Lotus Wellness + Aesthetics, we offer a variety of non-surgical wrinkle treatments that deliver natural, noticeable results, including:
- Botox & Dysport to relax dynamic wrinkles (forehead lines, crow’s feet, frown lines)
- Dermal fillers to smooth static wrinkles and restore lost volume
- Microneedling to stimulate collagen and reduce fine lines over time
- Chemical peels for skin resurfacing and wrinkle softening
- Laser treatments for skin tightening and texture improvement
We personalize every plan based on your skin, goals, and lifestyle.
2. What are “elevens,” and how do I treat them?
“Elevens” are the vertical lines that appear between your eyebrows when frowning, caused by repeated muscle movement and collagen loss.
These glabellar lines can be effectively treated with Botox or Dysport, which relax the muscles that create the lines. If the wrinkles are deep, we may also recommend dermal filler or microneedling to further improve skin texture.
3. What’s the difference between Botox and dermal fillers?
- Botox (and similar neuromodulators) reduce the appearance of wrinkles by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause expression lines.
- Dermal fillers add volume to areas where aging or facial structure has led to hollowness or deep lines (e.g. cheeks, lips, smile lines). We often use both in combination for full-face rejuvenation, depending on your needs.
4. Is there downtime after wrinkle or aesthetic treatments?
Most of our treatments involve little to no downtime:
- Botox/Dysport: Mild swelling or redness for a few hours
- Fillers: Possible swelling or bruising for 1–3 days
- Microneedling/Chemical peels: Mild redness or flaking for 2–5 days
We’ll guide you on how to care for your skin post-treatment and recommend when to resume normal activities.
5. What is the best age to start Botox or anti-aging treatments?
There’s no perfect age — it depends on your goals and facial movement. Many clients start “preventative Botox” in their late 20s to early 30s to stop fine lines from becoming deeper wrinkles. Others begin in their 40s or 50s for corrective results. We’ll help you determine the right time and strategy for your skin.
6. What facial treatments do you offer for glowing, healthy skin?
We offer custom facials, hydrafacials, chemical peels, and skin tightening treatments that:
- Cleanse and detox your skin
- Minimize pores
- Brighten dull or uneven skin tone
- Hydrate and nourish with medical-grade products
Facials are ideal for ongoing skin maintenance and pairing with other aesthetic services.
7. Do you offer laser treatments or microneedling for skin texture and scars?
Yes! We specialize in collagen-boosting skin treatments like:
- Microneedling with or without PRP (platelet-rich plasma)
- Laser skin resurfacing for fine lines, acne scars, and pigmentation
- Radiofrequency skin tightening to firm loose or aging skin
These treatments are excellent for rejuvenating skin tone, reducing scars, and boosting elasticity.
8. How long do results from Botox and fillers last?
- Botox/Dysport: Results typically last 3–4 months
- Dermal Fillers: Depending on the area and product used, results can last 6–18 months
We recommend maintenance visits to keep your look consistent and refreshed.
9. Are your treatments safe?
Absolutely. All of our treatments are performed by licensed, trained professionals using FDA-approved products in a medical-grade environment. Safety and natural-looking results are always our top priorities.

13. What is the difference between Botox and dermal fillers?
Botox is a neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles like forehead lines and crow's feet, while dermal fillers add volume to areas that have lost fullness, such as the cheeks, lips, and under-eye area. The right choice depends on your specific concern, and both treatments can be used together for more comprehensive results.

18. How long do dermal filler results typically last?
Dermal filler results typically last anywhere from six months to two years depending on the type of filler used and the area treated. Areas with more movement, like the lips, tend to metabolize filler more quickly than areas like the cheeks.

At your first injectable appointment, a licensed practitioner will review your aesthetic goals and recommend the appropriate treatment, whether a neurotoxin like Botox or a dermal filler. The actual injection process is brief, typically completed within 30 to 60 minutes, and most patients return to normal activities the same day.
21. Can Botox and dermal fillers be combined in the same appointment?
