NEUROTOXINS
What Are Neurotoxins?
Neurotoxin treatments are a versatile and effective way to smooth wrinkles, relax overactive muscles, and enhance facial symmetry—all with little to no downtime. Whether you’re looking to soften fine lines, relieve muscle tension, or reduce excessive sweating, our providers tailor each treatment to your goals for subtle, natural-looking results.
Neurotoxins are used to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, which are caused by repetitive facial movements like frowning, squinting, and smiling.

Subtle lifting of the eyebrows can be achieved with precise neurotoxin injections.
Neurotoxins are FDA-approved for the treatment of chronic migraines, helping to reduce the frequency and intensity of headache episodes.
Neurotoxin injections can block the nerves that trigger sweating, offering relief for individuals suffering from excessive perspiration.
Used for conditions such as cervical dystonia (neck spasms), blepharospasm (eye twitching), and spasticity due to neurological conditions like cerebral palsy.
Can help alleviate jaw tension, clenching, and associated pain.
Pre-Care Information:
Avoid Blood Thinners: For the best results and to reduce the risk of bruising, avoid blood-thinning medications, alcohol or supplements for at least a week before treatment. This includes aspirin, ibuprofen, vitamin E, fish oil, and other similar substances.
Inform Your Provider of Any Medical Conditions: Let your provider know if you have any neurological conditions, allergies, or if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, as neurotoxin treatments may not be suitable.
After-Care Information
What to Do After Your Treatment
After receiving neurotoxin injections, there are some essential guidelines to follow to ensure optimal results and avoid complications:
- Stay Upright: Avoid lying down or leaning over for at least 4 hours after your treatment. This helps prevent the neurotoxin from migrating to unintended areas.
- Avoid Rubbing the Treated Area: Refrain from massaging, rubbing, or pressing on the areas where neurotoxin has been injected. This can disrupt the toxin and impact results.
- Avoid Strenuous Exercise: For the first 24 to 48 hours, avoid heavy exercise or activities that could increase blood flow to the face, as this may cause the toxin to spread beyond the targeted muscles.
- Makeup: You may apply makeup using clean fingers or a clean sponge.
- Stay Out of the Sun: After your treatment, avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least 24 hours to reduce the risk of tanning injection sites.
- Monitor for Side Effects: Mild side effects such as bruising, redness, or swelling may occur. These usually resolve within a few hours to days. If you experience any unusual side effects (like difficulty swallowing, breathing, or speaking), contact your provider immediately.
- Results and Follow-ups: Full results are apparent at 2 weeks. Follow-up appointments may be necessary for touch-ups or adjustments
When to Expect Results
The effects of neurotoxin injections are not permanent and typically last around 3 months, depending on the area treated and the individual’s muscle activity. To maintain the results, repeat treatments are needed.
