Neurotoxin Injections

Botulinum Toxin A (such as Botox and Dysport) is a highly effective treatment that is injected into the surface of the skin to weaken or relax the muscles used during facial expressions. By temporarily inhibiting muscle activity, these injections soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, providing a smoother and more youthful complexion. This treatment is particularly effective for dynamic wrinkles, which are caused by repetitive facial movements such as frowning, squinting, or smiling. In addition to treating existing wrinkles, Botulinum Toxin A also serves as a preventive measure against the formation of new wrinkles, helping you maintain a youthful appearance over time.

  • Inform your practitioner of any allergies or medical conditions you may have.

Post-Care Instructions

  • Avoid touching or massaging the treated area for at least 24 hours to prevent the toxin from spreading to unintended areas.

How Long to See Results:

Results from neurotoxin injections typically become noticeable within 3-5 days, with full effects visible within two weeks. The duration of the results can vary but generally lasts between 3-4 months.

Pain Management:

We use a numbing cream to ensure your comfort during the procedure, which significantly reduces any pain or discomfort. Most patients find the treatment to be very tolerable. Additionally, applying arnica before and after the procedure can help reduce bruising and promote faster healing.
