Neuromodulators, also known as Neurotoxins, are an FDA approved anti-aging treatment for wrinkles that have been used since the 1970’s. They are safe, highly effective, and require zero downtime. When carefully injected, Botox®, Dysport® and Xeomin® give skin a smooth and renewed appearance that looks natural.

Neurotoxins target and decrease muscle movement, which softens pre-existing wrinkles and prevents new wrinkles from forming.

Treatment is quick and typically completed in less than 30 minutes. Noticeable results are generally observed 3-7 days after treatment, with full results visible 14 days post treatment.

It depends on several factors, including: which area(s) you are treating (11s, forehead, crow’s feet, etc), the strength of your facial muscles, and how deep your existing lines are. We recommend a complimentary consultation with our clinician to create a perfect plan for you.

Most clients say it feels like a tiny pinch. The needle is quite small, goes in smoothly, and the neurotoxin is injected quickly with minimal pain. No numbing agents are used for this treatment.

There’s virtually zero downtime. Neurotoxins are often referred to as a “lunchtime procedure,” since most patients return directly to work or normal activity immediately. Some redness and swelling may occur at the injection sites, but it usually subsides within 20 minutes. Very rarely, patients may experience minor bruising.

Results last around 3-6 months, depending on the location of the treatment, your muscle activity, and your body’s individual response.

While they are all neurotoxin injectables used to treat and prevent wrinkles, their chemical compositions slightly differ. Your nurse injector will explain the differences & allow you to choose which product you’d prefer to use.

Neurotoxin injections are very low risk. Minor headaches, bruising, and swelling at the injection site are the most reported side effects, but very rare. Your clinician will cover all bases with you prior to treatment.
