Botox, Xeomin, Jeuveau & Dysport

Real, noticeable results!

When you smile, laugh, frown, or look puzzled, you contract the muscles of your face. Over time, these contractions produce permanent furrows and deep wrinkles in the skin, especially around the eyes and mouth, between the eyebrows, and on the forehead.

These lines can make you look older, sad, angry or tired.

Botox, Xeomin, Jeuveau & Dysport are injectable neuromodulators that inhibit muscle activity that leads to moderate to severe lines and wrinkles. Injectable neuromodulators eliminate facial lines and wrinkles for up to 3-6 months with no downtime or surgery and little to no discomfort.

Pre-/Post-Instructions for Injectable Neuromodulator Treatment

Before Procedure

  1. Avoid the following 2 weeks prior to your treatment as they can cause thinning of your blood and increase your chances of bruising:
    •  NSAIDS/Pain Relievers (such as ibuprofen, naproxen, etc), Prednisone, Aspirin, Coumadin or any other blood thinners
    • Supplements such as fish oil, vitamin E, garlic, ginko, glucosamine and St. John’s Wort

    However, if these medications were prescribed by a doctor, DO NOT stop your medication without permission from that health care provider.

  2. Avoid alcohol 48 hours prior to your appointment because it can thin your blood and possibly make bruising worse.
  3. Please tell your physician if you have :
    • Any neuromuscular diseases (such as myasthenia gravis)
    • Been taking any antibiotics
    • Become pregnant or if you are breastfeeding
    • An allergy to human albumin

Day of Procedure

  • Headaches are the “sine qua non” of injectable neuromodulator  therapy, indicating that the toxin is working. After the procedure, it is not uncommon to experience a “headache” sensation, which usually subsides a few hours after the procedure.
  • Keep your head elevated for 6 hours after the procedure to prevent the toxin from migrating.
  • You should try to “exercise” the areas that were injected by frowning and smiling for 2 hours after the procedure.
  • You should see the effects of the injections within 1-2 weeks.
  • Do not massage the area injected.
