The amount of treatment needed depends on several factors, including the area(s) being treated (such as 11s, forehead, crow’s feet), the strength of your facial muscles, and the depth of your existing lines. A complimentary consultation with our practitioners will help create a personalized plan for you.

Most clients describe the sensation as a small pinch. The fine needle glides smoothly, and the Botox is injected quickly, resulting in minimal discomfort. To ensure your comfort, we offer options like numbing cream, ice, and distraction tools.

There is virtually zero downtime with neurotoxin treatments. Often referred to as a “lunchtime procedure,” most patients can return to work or normal activities immediately. Some redness and swelling may occur at the injection sites but usually subside within a few hours. Minor bruising may occur.

Results generally last about 3–4 months, depending on the dose, treatment area, muscle activity, and your body’s unique response.

Dose = Duration.

Daxxify:
When dosed appropriately, Daxxify may last 5–9 months. Its extended duration makes it an excellent choice for those seeking fewer maintenance appointments throughout the year.

The five FDA-approved botulinum toxin treatments—Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau, and Daxxify—have slightly different compositions, affecting factors like onset and duration. While all relax muscles to reduce wrinkles, their formulations influence how quickly results appear and how long they last, with Daxxify generally offering a longer duration.

Neurotoxin injections are very common and low-risk procedures. The most reported side effects include headaches, minor bruising, and swelling at the injection site, although these are rare. Your nurse injector will cover all potential risks before treatment.
