More Information About Our Neurotoxin Treatments
What Are Neurotoxin Injectables?
Botox®
Botox® is an FDA-approved injectable product that contains a refined form of botulinum toxin type A. It temporarily reduces muscle activity in specific areas of the face, often where lines develop from repeated expressions such as smiling, frowning, or squinting.
Dysport®
Dysport® is also an FDA-approved injectable containing botulinum toxin type A, formulated differently from Botox®. It specifically targets the glabellar lines between the eyebrows, though it’s commonly used in other facial areas as well. Dysport® has a reputation for spreading slightly more than Botox®, making it ideal for treating larger areas.
Daxxify™
Daxxify™ is the newest FDA-approved neurotoxin treatment that uses a unique peptide-stabilized formula of botulinum toxin type A. This innovative formulation allows for longer-lasting results compared to traditional neurotoxin treatments.
While these treatments are primarily used in aesthetic settings, they may also be recommended for other purposes, such as helping manage underarm sweating in certain cases.
How These Treatments Work
During the procedure, the chosen neurotoxin is administered using a fine needle directly into the muscles that contribute to expression-related wrinkles. They work by blocking nerve signals to the muscles, causing them to relax. As a result, the skin in those areas may appear smoother while the effects last.
Botox®
Botox® treatment usually takes between 15-30 minutes. Initial changes are often noticed within a few days, with full results becoming visible in about a week. Effects typically last 3-4 months.
Dysport®
Dysport® treatments are also quick, typically taking 15-20 minutes. Many clients notice results within 2-3 days, which is slightly faster than Botox®. Results generally last 3-4 months.
Daxxify™
Daxxify™ appointments are similarly brief, taking 15-30 minutes. Initial results become visible within days, but what sets Daxxify™ apart is its longevity – results can last 6-9 months, approximately twice as long as other neurotoxin treatments.
After any of these treatments, you can usually return to your normal routine without interruption.
