Botox at Oshun is performed by Dr. Charles Rockhead — board-certified, conservatively dosed, and mapped to your face. A fifteen-minute visit, a two-week check-in, and a result that looks like you on your best day.
No obligation · Every consultation is in-person with Dr. Rockhead.
Every needle at Oshun is placed by a board-certified Obstetrician and Gynaecologist. Most Botox in the Caribbean is delivered by aestheticians or nurses. Dr. Rockhead is a physician first — the same one who treats women's health on the other side of his practice.
Three decades as a practicing OB/GYN at Amadeo Medical Group, the parent clinical practice. Every Botox plan is reviewed by a physician who has cared for women through pregnancy, surgery, perimenopause, and post-natal recovery — not just injection appointments.
Every patient gets a chart with their injection sites and per-area unit counts drawn out before any needle is opened. Returning patients refine the same map — they don't start from scratch every visit. Continuity in writing, not just in promise.
Every session is priced per unit, in writing, before any injection. No memberships, no multi-visit series, no "free" touch-ups designed to quietly under-dose visit one. You pay for the units you need — nothing more.
The reason Botox sometimes goes wrong is rarely the medicine itself. Botox is FDA-approved, used in millions of treatments a year, and clinically very safe in trained hands. What goes wrong is how it gets delivered.
The common pattern across cosmetic clinics: an injection delegated to a non-physician staff member, no record of where the units went last time, no follow-up visit scheduled, and a headline price that quietly under-doses the first visit so the "complimentary" touch-up keeps you coming back. When results come, they're either too little to matter or too much to hide.
At Oshun, we don't run that model. The four points above — physician-injected, mapped, fourteen-day check-in, written quote — are how we replaced it. The rest of this page explains the alternative in plain language so you can decide whether it sounds like the right approach for you.

A Botox visit at Oshun takes about thirty minutes from the moment you walk in to the moment you walk out. Here is what happens in those thirty minutes.
Dr. Rockhead asks you to make a series of expressions — frown, smile, raise your brows — and watches how each muscle moves. The strongest puller in your forehead is rarely the same as the strongest puller in your neighbour's. The exact units and injection sites are written into your chart before any needle is opened.
The treatment area is cleansed with medical-grade antiseptic. The needles are ultra-fine, so most patients only feel a brief pinch — if you'd rather not feel it at all, a topical numbing cream is applied and given five minutes to settle.
Dr. Rockhead performs a short series of precise micro-injections into the mapped target muscles. Each placement is the dose written down at step one. Nothing is improvised; nothing is added without your spoken consent.
Small red marks at the injection sites usually disappear within twenty to thirty minutes. There is no anesthesia, no bandage, and no social downtime — you can return to work, run errands, or meet friends the same afternoon. We email a two-week follow-up reminder before you reach your car.
Dr. Charles Rockhead, Medical Director — Oshun Cosmetic Services, Kingston.
Dr. Charles Rockhead is a board-certified Obstetrician and Gynaecologist with more than thirty years of practice in Kingston. He is the Medical Director of Oshun Cosmetic Services and the founding physician of Amadeo Medical Group, the parent clinical practice.
Every Botox injection at Oshun is performed by Dr. Rockhead personally — never delegated to nurses, technicians, or junior injectors. The same physician who maps your face is the one who places every unit, and the one who sees you again at the two-week follow-up. That single-hand continuity is the difference between an injection and a treatment plan.
Most first-time patients arrive with the same set of unspoken questions. They are answered below in the order most people think them — from "how much will I need" to "what if I'm pregnant."
| What it is | Botox is the brand name for a very small, purified dose of a protein called botulinum toxin type A. We use it to gently and temporarily relax the facial muscles that produce expression lines — the result is a softer, more rested look, not a frozen one. |
|---|---|
| How long it's been around | The medicine has been FDA-approved for medical use since 1989 and for cosmetic use since 2002. There are decades of safety data behind the product itself. |
| What we treat with it | The vertical lines that form between your brows when you frown ("11s"), horizontal lines across the forehead, the small lines at the outer corner of your eyes ("crow's feet"), jawline slimming for a softer face shape, and excessive underarm sweating. |
| Consultation policy | Every patient meets Dr. Rockhead in person at the 9 Devon Road clinic before any treatment is scheduled. (Virtual consultations are not currently offered.) |
|---|---|
| Intake form | If you haven't already completed your intake form, please fill it out before your visit. It takes about 3 minutes and helps Dr. Rockhead prepare. Your information is confidential and protected under the Jamaica Data Protection Act 2020. |
| The days before your visit | Skip alcohol for 24 hours beforehand. If it's medically safe for you, also skip aspirin, ibuprofen, and other anti-inflammatory medications for about a week. Both steps lower the chance of small bruises at the injection sites. Tell us about every medication and supplement you take, and let us know if there's any chance you may be pregnant. |
| How much you'll need | Botox is measured in units — one unit is a tiny standardized dose. For first-time patients, the typical ranges are about 16–24 units between the brows, 8–16 units across the forehead, and 8–12 units per side for the eye corners. Your exact dose is mapped out at consultation based on how strong your muscles are and the look you want. |
|---|---|
| Will it hurt? | The needles used are ultra-fine, so most patients feel only a brief pinch. If you'd rather not feel it at all, we apply a topical numbing cream beforehand at no extra cost. |
| How long the visit takes | Plan for 15–30 minutes from arrival to walking out the door. The injections themselves take only a few minutes. |
| Time off after | None. There's no anesthesia and no bandages. You can drive yourself home, return to work, or pick up the children the same day. |
| Right after your visit | Stay upright (not lying flat) for the first four hours, and skip the gym, hot tubs, saunas, and facials for the first 24 hours. This gives the product time to settle exactly where it was placed. We email a brief check-in two weeks later. |
|---|---|
| When you'll see results | Botox begins working around day 3 and reaches its full effect by day 14. The result lasts about 3–4 months the first time you have it done, and tends to extend a little longer with consistent treatment. |
| Two-week follow-up | We see you back at the two-week mark to assess how the product has settled and check for any small asymmetry. If a top-up dose would help, it's billed at the standard per-unit rate — we don't include "free" touch-ups because that pricing model often means the original dose was deliberately too low. |
| Where treatments happen | Oshun Cosmetic Services, 9 Devon Road, Kingston, Jamaica. The same address, the same medical team, every visit. |
|---|---|
| What it costs | Botox at Oshun is priced per unit, not as a flat package. At your consultation you'll receive a written quote with the proposed units and the total, so there are no surprises before any injection. We don't advertise a single number because two patients with the same concern often need very different amounts. |
| How to pay | Cash, debit, credit card, or approved financing. |
| Insurance | Cosmetic Botox is not covered by insurance, which is standard everywhere. If you're being treated for a medical reason — for example chronic migraine or excessive sweating — we provide itemized receipts and the proper diagnostic codes that you can submit to your insurer yourself. |
| Who should not have Botox | Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding, who have a neuromuscular condition such as myasthenia gravis or ALS, who currently have an infection where the injection would go, or who have had an allergic reaction to Botox before. Dr. Rockhead reviews your full medical history at consultation before anything is scheduled. |
Botox isn't a one-size category — the right dose, the right rhythm, and even whether to start at all depends on where you are. Below are the four patient profiles we see most often. If one sounds like you, an in-person consultation at 9 Devon Road is the next step.
First-time Botox patients often over-buy at high-volume clinics. Oshun starts conservative — typically 16–20 units in the glabella — and adjusts at the two-week touch-up window. Half the dose, twice the iteration.
Patients on a maintenance schedule benefit most from documented dose mapping. Each visit captures exact injection sites and units, so subsequent visits refine rather than reset.
Lower-dose preventative treatment to slow the formation of dynamic wrinkles before they become static. Conservative dosing, anatomy-first plan, follow-up to optimize over the first year.
Botox is also used for masseter (jawline) slimming and axillary hyperhidrosis (excessive underarm sweating). Both indications are evaluated case-by-case at consultation.
Every Botox patient at Oshun starts with a consultation. Twenty minutes, in-person at 9 Devon Road, with Dr. Rockhead. No procedure is scheduled, no quote is signed, no pressure either way. You leave with a plan and a price — or you leave with neither.
No obligation · Every consultation is in-person with Dr. Rockhead.
Every testimonial below this line will be a real Oshun patient who wrote it themselves, signed a consent form, and gave permission to use their name. Oshun does not buy reviews, ghostwrite reviews, or publish anonymous five-star strings. Real or nothing.
Open any of them. We've written each answer the way Dr. Rockhead would actually say it — not the way a brochure would.
Most patients land on this page deciding between two things: Botox at Oshun, or Botox somewhere else. The consultation tells you which one is right. Twenty minutes with Dr. Rockhead at 9 Devon Road, a written quote in your hands, and a real answer about whether this is for you — with no obligation either way.
