Botox and Juvederm in Falls Church, VA
At Merrifield Oral Surgery, Botox and Juvederm in Falls Church, VA are provided by the same board-certified surgical team that handles our patients' oral and facial procedures every day.

Call (703) 639-0027Benefits of Botox and Juvederm From a Surgical Team
Botox and Juvederm both work to soften lines and restore volume, but how they're delivered matters. Our surgeons spend their days working with facial nerves, muscles, and blood vessels during complex procedures like jaw surgery and facial trauma repair. That daily familiarity with facial anatomy carries over into cosmetic treatment, helping guide precise, careful placement.
Because our team already manages sedation, pain control, and patient comfort for surgical cases, a Botox or Juvederm appointment tends to feel calm and unhurried. You're treated in a medical setting with a team trained to recognize and manage complications, not just deliver injections.
What to Expect During Your Botox and Juvederm Visit
Your visit starts with a short conversation about your goals, medical history, and the areas you'd like to address. From there, your surgeon cleans the treatment area and uses a fine needle to place small, measured amounts of Botox or Juvederm. Most patients describe the sensation as a quick pinch rather than something painful.
A typical visit takes well under an hour, and there's no downtime built in. Some patients notice mild redness or slight swelling at the injection sites, which usually settles within a day or two. Botox results tend to appear gradually over one to two weeks, while Juvederm's volumizing effects are often visible right away.
Why Choose an Oral Surgeon for Botox and Juvederm
Choosing an oral surgeon for Botox and Juvederm treatment means choosing a provider who already holds board certification in a surgical specialty focused on the face, mouth, and jaw. Dr. Margaret K. Pham is one of our board-certified surgeons who provides Botox and Juvederm care, alongside her work in extractions, implants, and facial procedures.
This service is one part of a broader set of Specialty & Advanced Procedures we offer, which also includes care like oral pathology evaluation and sleep apnea treatment. Because Botox and Juvederm are cosmetic services, they're generally not covered by dental insurance.
