Neurotoxin/Botox
What are Neurotoxins?
Neurotoxins, such as Botox, Dysport, and Jeuveau, are FDA-approved injectable treatments used to temporarily relax facial muscles, reducing the appearance of fine lines and dynamic wrinkles. These treatments are safe, effective, and widely used in both cosmetic and medical dermatology.
Neurotoxins are most commonly used to smooth expression lines caused by repeated muscle movements, such as frowning, squinting, or raising the eyebrows.
Common Treatment Areas:
-
Forehead lines
-
Frown lines (glabella lines or “11s”)
-
Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
-
Bunny lines (on the nose)
-
Lip flip or gummy smile
-
Chin dimpling
-
Jaw slimming / masseter reduction
-
Neck bands (platysmal bands)
How Neurotoxins Work?
Neurotoxins contain a purified form of botulinum toxin type A, which temporarily blocks nerve signals to targeted muscles. By relaxing those muscles, the overlying skin appears smoother and more refreshed.
Results typically appear within 3–7 days, with full effect in about 2 weeks, and last 3 to 4 months on average.
