Botox Cosmetic

Botox, Dysport, Xeomin and Nucieva are all brand names for a group of drugs known as neuromodulators. Neuromodulators are a prescription drug that when injected into muscles block the transmission of nerve impulses resulting in limited muscle contraction and movement. 

Neuromodulators are approved for the treatment of dynamic wrinkles. By restricting muscle movement, injections can soften frown lines between the eyebrows (glabella lines), forehead and crows feet. Neuromodulators can also be helpful in the treatment of medical conditions such as migraines, excessive sweating and teeth grinding (bruxism). 

Neuromodulators are used in the treatment of:

• Forehead Lines (6-20 units)
• Crows Feet (6-15 units)
• Lip Flip (2-6 units)
• Turn That Frown Upside Down (2-4 units)
• Neck Bands (25-50 units)
• Pebble Chin (2-6 units)
• Angry Lines (20-30 units)
• Eyebrow Lift (2-5 units)
• Bunny Lines (2-10 units)
