You’re tired of seeing those lines deepen every time you look in the mirror. The crow’s feet that weren’t there last year. The forehead wrinkles that make you look older than you feel. Maybe you’re dealing with jaw pain from grinding your teeth at night, or headaches that just won’t quit.
Here’s what changes when you get Botox treatment that’s done right. Those expression lines soften within days. Your face looks refreshed, not frozen. The tension in your jaw muscles eases up. You stop avoiding photos and start feeling like yourself again—just a smoother, more comfortable version.
The results aren’t dramatic overnight transformations. They’re the kind of subtle improvements that make people say you look well-rested, not “different.” And when Botox is used for medical issues like TMJ or migraines, patients often experience significant relief within a week or two.
Dr. Scott Kupetz brings something different to Botox treatments in Beacon, NY—years of experience working with facial muscles, nerves, and anatomy every single day. While other providers might have learned facial injection techniques in a weekend course, dentists spend years mastering the precise placement of injections in the most delicate areas of your face.
Located in Dutchess County, we’ve been serving the Beacon community with comprehensive dental care that goes beyond just teeth. When you choose a dentist for Botox, you’re choosing someone who understands how your facial muscles work together, how to achieve natural-looking results, and how to keep you comfortable throughout the process.
The difference shows in the results. Our patients appreciate the medical approach, the attention to detail, and the peace of mind that comes with receiving treatment from a healthcare provider they already know and trust.
Your Botox treatment starts with a consultation where we discuss your goals and examine the areas you want to address. Whether you’re looking to smooth forehead lines, reduce crow’s feet, or find relief from TMJ pain, we create a treatment plan that’s specific to your needs and facial structure.
The actual injection process takes about 15 minutes. We use a very fine needle to place small amounts of Botox precisely where it’s needed. Most patients describe the sensation as a quick pinch—much less uncomfortable than you might expect. There’s no downtime, so you can return to your normal activities right after your appointment.
Results typically begin to appear within 3-5 days and continue to improve for up to two weeks. The effects last approximately 3-4 months for cosmetic treatments, though some patients find their results last longer with regular maintenance. For medical applications like TMJ treatment, many patients experience relief that can last 4-6 months.

Our Botox services in Beacon, NY address both cosmetic and medical concerns. For facial rejuvenation, we treat forehead lines, crow’s feet, frown lines between the eyebrows, and other dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle movement. We also offer preventative Botox for younger patients who want to delay the formation of deeper lines.
On the medical side, Botox provides effective relief for TMJ disorders, teeth grinding (bruxism), chronic migraines, and excessive sweating. Many residents of Dutchess County don’t realize that the same treatment that smooths wrinkles can also provide significant relief from jaw pain and headaches.
Each treatment is customized based on your facial anatomy, muscle strength, and desired outcomes. We use only FDA-approved Botox and follow strict safety protocols. The convenience of receiving both dental care and Botox treatments in one location saves you time and ensures continuity of care. Our patients appreciate being able to address multiple health and aesthetic concerns during a single visit to our Beacon practice.
Botox pricing in Beacon typically ranges from $10-15 per unit, with most treatment areas requiring 15-50 units depending on the size of the area and strength of your muscles. Forehead treatments usually need 15-25 units, while crow’s feet require about 15-20 units per side.
The total cost for a typical session addressing 2-3 areas ranges from $300-600. We provide exact pricing during your consultation since everyone’s needs are different. Many patients find the investment worthwhile when they consider the confidence boost and potential relief from medical issues like TMJ pain.
We also offer financing options to make treatments more accessible, and some patients use their HSA or FSA funds for medical Botox applications like migraine or TMJ treatment.
Yes, dentists are actually ideal providers for Botox treatments. We have extensive training in facial anatomy, muscle function, and precise injection techniques from years of administering local anesthesia in the most sensitive areas of the face and mouth.
Dental boards in New York and across the country have approved Botox administration by qualified dentists because of our expertise in the head and neck region. We understand the complex relationship between facial muscles, nerves, and blood vessels better than most medical professionals.
The safety profile of Botox is excellent when administered properly. Side effects are rare and typically minor, such as temporary bruising or slight swelling at injection sites. Serious complications are extremely uncommon when treatment is performed by a trained healthcare provider in a medical setting.
Botox results typically last 3-4 months for cosmetic applications, though this varies based on individual factors like metabolism, muscle strength, and the area treated. Some patients notice their results beginning to fade around 3 months, while others maintain their results for 4-5 months.
For medical applications like TMJ treatment or migraine prevention, results often last 4-6 months. Many patients find that with regular treatments, their results last longer over time as the muscles become trained to relax.
The timeline works well for most people’s schedules—you can plan your next appointment before your current results wear off completely. Regular maintenance treatments help ensure consistent results and may actually extend the duration of each treatment’s effectiveness.
Absolutely. Botox is highly effective for treating TMJ disorders, teeth grinding, and related jaw pain. The treatment works by relaxing the masseter muscles (the large jaw muscles) that often become overactive and cause pain, tension, and teeth grinding.
Many patients experience significant relief from jaw pain, headaches, and teeth grinding within 1-2 weeks of treatment. The muscle relaxation also helps protect your teeth from the damage caused by nighttime grinding and clenching.
As a dentist, Dr. Kupetz is uniquely qualified to assess how TMJ issues affect your oral health and provide comprehensive treatment that addresses both the symptoms and underlying causes. This medical application of Botox often provides longer-lasting relief than cosmetic treatments, with effects typically lasting 4-6 months.
Your first appointment begins with a thorough consultation where we discuss your goals, medical history, and examine the areas you want to treat. We’ll explain exactly how Botox works and what results you can realistically expect based on your individual facial structure and concerns.
The treatment itself takes about 15 minutes. We use a very fine needle to make precise injections in the targeted muscles. Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the process is—many describe it as less painful than a typical dental injection.
You can return to normal activities immediately after treatment, though we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise for 24 hours and staying upright for 4 hours after injection. You’ll start to see results within 3-5 days, with full effects visible in about two weeks. We schedule a follow-up to assess your results and make any necessary adjustments for future treatments.
Yes, preventative Botox is becoming increasingly popular among patients in their late 20s and early 30s. The idea is to start treatment before deep lines form, using smaller amounts of Botox to prevent the repetitive muscle movements that create permanent wrinkles over time.
Preventative treatments typically require fewer units and less frequent appointments than corrective treatments. Many younger patients find that starting early helps them maintain smoother skin longer and may reduce the amount of Botox needed as they age.
The key is starting at the right time—when you notice the beginning of fine lines that don’t completely disappear when your face is at rest. During your consultation, we can assess whether you’re a good candidate for preventative treatment and develop a plan that fits your goals and budget.
