Smooth expression lines by relaxing targeted facial muscles
Whitney Fritzie, PA-C injecting Botox in Carlsbad, CA
Botox works by relaxing the muscles responsible for expression lines, helping smooth the skin while preserving the natural character of your face.
Treatment is quick and efficient, with precise injections guided by facial anatomy and movement. Most appointments take less than thirty minutes and require little to no downtime.
At HTB, Botox is approached with restraint and intention. We focus on balance over rigidity, creating results that look smooth, rested, and natural—never overdone.
Botox requires a thoughtful, anatomy-driven approach. We focus on precise placement and dosing to soften lines while maintaining control, symmetry, and natural expression.
No two faces move the same way. Your Botox treatment is customized to your facial anatomy, muscle strength, and goals—never a standard formula or preset pattern.
We view Botox as part of a long-term aesthetic plan. By prioritizing balance and consistency, we help create results that age gracefully and evolve with you over time.
Adults seeking to smooth expression lines while maintaining a natural, relaxed look. Best suited for healthy individuals who value subtle results, minimal downtime, and routine maintenance every few months.

I've been going to Holden Beauty since I moved to SD for the past 4 years. There is no other place I would trust with my beauty needs. Katie is super knowledgable and is always conservative with her methods, which I appreciate. I have been doing toxins, Sylfirm, and CO2 fractional laser.
Katie is wonderful! The entire office staff is pleasant and the facility is clean!
