Botox & Neurotoxins — Articles & Guides

Neurotoxin injections such as Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin temporarily relax targeted muscles to smooth wrinkles and address a wide range of cosmetic and therapeutic concerns from head to neck. The treatment takes less than 30 minutes with virtually zero downtime — often called a lunchtime procedure. Results become visible in 3 to 5 days, reach full effect at 14 days, and last 3 to 4 months. Our registered nurse injector, Amy Mason RN, customizes every treatment to preserve natural facial expression while achieving your aesthetic goals. **Treatment Areas:** - **Forehead Lines** — Smooths horizontal lines across the forehead - **Frown Lines (Glabellar)** — Softens the vertical "11" lines between the brows - **Crow's Feet** — Reduces fine lines around the outer corners of the eyes - **Nefertiti Lift** — Treats the lower face and jawline to create a lifted, more defined appearance - **Masseter (Jaw)** — Relieves TMJ pain, teeth grinding, and clenching; can also slim and contour the face - **DAO (Depressor Anguli Oris)** — Lifts the corners of the mouth to correct a downturned or sad smile - **Chin** — Smooths the dimpled "orange peel" texture of the chin - **Platysmal Bands (Neck)** — Softens vertical neck bands, reduces neck lines, and can relieve neck tension - **Nose** — Reduces nasal flaring or subtly lifts the tip of the nose - **Lip Flip / Upper Lip** — Creates a subtle lip flip for a fuller upper lip appearance, corrects a gummy smile, and softens smoker's lines - **Trapezius (Barbie Botox)** — Relaxes the trap muscles to slim and elongate the appearance of the shoulders and neck
