Botox With Dr. Marie Noland | Langley, BC
Smiling and laughing are as much a staple in your everyday life as breathing. Enjoying outdoor activities like hiking, picnics, or backyard gatherings with close friends and family is a favorite pastime for you. While these experiences enrich your emotional and physical life, with age, repetitive facial expressions and excessive UV exposure can etch deep wrinkles and lines into your skin.

As a double fellowship-trained surgeon, Dr. Noland tailors each Botox treatment to her patients’ specific concerns and goals. Dr. Noland takes special care with her Botox sessions by examining your entire facial anatomy.

She’ll start with small doses and gradually increase them until you’ve reached your desired results together.
Schedule a BOTOX® consultation with Dr. Noland to undo the aging effect of chronic sun exposure and repetitive facial expressions.

What Is Botox?
Botox is a neuromodulator, which means it limits muscle movement by blocking nerve signals. When expertly injected into the skin of the forehead, around the mouth, or near the eyes, these injections temporarily prevent facial expressions like frowning and squinting, allowing the overlying skin to relax. As a result, Botox benefits are twofold – noticeably smoothing existing fine lines and wrinkles while temporarily halting their further progression.
Botox consists of a purified version of botulinum toxin. If the muscles have limited movement, dynamic wrinkles can rest, and you will enjoy a naturally refreshed appearance.
Botox can diminish the following wrinkles and fine lines:
- Forehead furrows
- Glabellar lines, also known as “11 lines”
- Bunny lines across the top of your nose
- Crow’s feet
- Lipstick or smoker lines around your mouth
- Bands extending across your neck
What Causes Facial Wrinkles?
Your skin’s youthful smoothness and vitality are largely due to the health and production of structural collagen. This essential compound is responsible for the skin’s elasticity and structure. Unfortunately, over time, collagen production gradually decreases, robbing the skin of its firm tone and leading to the development of wrinkles that increase in number and depth.
Another common cause of fine lines is the sun exposure we are susceptible to during our everyday activities. Constant creasing when smiling, laughing, frowning, and even talking is also responsible for the depletion of collagen and causing wrinkles. Aside from its adverse impact on your overall health, smoking can dramatically accelerate collagen loss and make you look years older. Lastly, your genetics highly influence wrinkles and fine lines’ location, timing, and overall appearance.
What Can You Expect From Langley, BC Botox Treatments With Dr. Noland?
As a board-certified and double fellowship-trained plastic surgeon, Dr. Noland meticulously injects the perfect amount of Botox to achieve your desired results. She understands and appreciates that each patient’s facial anatomy requires a customized treatment plan. With her tailored, less-is-more approach, she avoids the stereotypically overdone or “frozen” look often associated with Botox.
To begin your treatment, Dr. Noland will start by cleansing your face of any makeup, skin care products, oil, and dirt. Next, she’ll begin by marking the areas she specifically wants to target, carefully considering your unique facial composition for balanced and cohesive results. Once she has determined the targeted area, she’ll begin injecting minimal amounts of Botox into your facial muscles. You may feel a slight pinch, but most patients report it being a tolerable and relaxing experience.
Once she has evenly distributed the agreed-upon units of Botox, Dr. Noland will cleanse your skin again and discuss any aftercare instructions.
What Are the Benefits of Deep Wrinkles and Fine Line Treatments With Botox?
Relaxing the specific muscles responsible for facial expressions helps restore youthful smoothness to the area between the eyebrows, the forehead, the top of the nose, around the eyes, the borders of the lips, and across the neck.
Dr. Noland precisely monitors the units of Botox she injects into each muscle to limit its movement without paralyzing it. The goal is to avoid the unwanted “frozen” appearance often associated with unprofessional or inexperienced Botox use.
In addition to enhancing the skin’s vitality, temporarily limiting specific facial muscle movements will prevent the progression of fine lines and deep wrinkles, decreasing the number, depth, and width of these stubborn signs of aging. That’s how Botox injections simultaneously provide instant and preventive benefits to your appearance.
While Botox injections can help you look younger by minimizing wrinkles, they do not address age-related volume loss. If you want to contour areas like your cheeks and lips, consider including dermal fillers in your custom cosmetic plan.
Other benefits of Botox include:
- No anesthesia, incisions, or sutures
- Quick, convenient treatment sessions
- Zero downtime for recovery
- Virtually painless process
- Results that last three to six months

Botox Recovery in Surrey, BC
Botox treatments are convenient and accessible due to the minimal downtime and recovery after treatment. Most patients can resume their typical daily schedule immediately after leaving our office. We recommend avoiding strenuous activities that will make you sweat for the first 24 hours after your session to prevent infection and allow the product time to take full effect. You should also sleep with your head elevated to minimize the risk of Botox shifting out of position before it’s had a chance to settle into your facial muscles.
When Will I See My Results, and How Long Will They Last?
The initial improvements made by your Botox treatment should become noticeable 24 to 48 hours after your session. Most patients report seeing a significant improvement in their wrinkles and fine lines in as little as a week, with full results appearing after a month.
While everyone is unique, Botox usually starts wearing off after three to six months. When you start seeing dynamic wrinkles, you can always return for a maintenance session to prevent the development of future lines and wrinkles.
Embrace your natural beauty at every stage of life.
