Botox Injections in Boise & Meridian, ID
Refresh Your Look With Botox
Botox is one of the most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatments in the world. A few quick injections relax the facial muscles that cause expression lines, so your skin looks smoother and more rested while you still look like yourself.
At Alpine Facial Cosmetic Surgery, our experienced team brings a surgeon's understanding of facial anatomy to every Botox treatment. Contact us to find out whether Botox is right for you.
What Can Botox Treat?
Botox is a neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes targeted muscles to reduce dynamic wrinkles, the lines that form when you make facial expressions. Common treatment areas include:
- Frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines)
- Horizontal forehead lines
- Crow's feet at the corners of the eyes
If your main concern is lost volume, hollows, or thinning lips rather than expression lines, dermal fillers may be a better fit. Many patients combine both treatments for a more complete refresh.
How Does a Botox Treatment Work?
During your visit, a series of small injections is placed into the targeted muscles. The treatment is quick and generally requires no anesthesia. Results begin to appear within a few days, reach their full effect in about two weeks, and typically last three to four months.
There is little to no downtime. You may notice mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites, which usually resolves within a few days. Your provider may recommend avoiding strenuous activity and lying down for a few hours after treatment.
Botox or Surgery?
Botox softens lines caused by muscle movement, but it does not remove excess skin. If heavy brows or sagging skin are your main concern, a brow lift or eyelid surgery may give you longer-lasting results. Our surgeons can explain all of your options during a consultation.
Your Anesthesia Options
Depending on your procedure, you will receive one of the following forms of anesthesia to ensure your comfort.
Patient Testimonials

"Hi. My name is Paula, and I'm from Boise, and I've come to this practice for Blephs, Botox, and also a facelift. The doctors here are wonderful. They are up on all of the latest techniques, and they give good natural results, and that's what I like the most. They have a very consistent, professional, friendly staff. I mean, I feel like they're just part of a family. All of my procedures have gone really well here, and I've had really great recoveries and better results than I even thought I would have. I just feel sort of brighter and lighter with some procedures. For me, it was the right choice, and this is the right practice. I've referred many patients to Alpine Surgical Arts, and they are also having really good experiences."
"Hi, I'm Nicole. I live in Garden Valley, Idaho, and I came to Alpine Surgical Arts for a chin implant. It's a very calm feeling in this office. They're all very welcoming, and very happy and positive. The doctors here at Alpine Surgical Arts are friendly, and they seem to just love what they do, and very charismatic about what they do and helping people feel great. The procedure itself went very smooth. I was surprised at how quickly I was able to get back to normal life and feel confident and excited with my new look. My overall experience with Dr. Haghighi and his team has been so great. I would highly recommend Alpine Surgical Arts to all my friends in Garden Valley."
