What is Botox?

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). 

Is Botox Cosmetic Right For You?

    FAQs

    What is Botox? What is Dysport? How are they different?

    Botox and Dysport are both used to treat and prevent wrinkles, fine lines, and deep facial furrows. By working beneath the surface, Botox and Dysport help reduce the underlying muscle activity that causes the skin to appear wrinkled or folded.

    How much does Botox/Dysport cost?

    Botox and Dysport cost $10/unit. While there are a wide variety of treatments that use Botox and Dysport, treatments are usually between 35-60 units.

    When will I see results?

    Results are visible within 24-48 hours, but take 2 weeks to have full affect.

    How long do results last?

    Results from Botox are not permanent. Effects usually last about 3-4 months.

    How many treatments will I need?

    Botox will only need one single treatment to show results, with a quick 2 week follow up to ensure you are 100% satisfied. However, results last about 3-4 months, therefore treatments can continue upon this timeline for as long as the patient desires.

    Will I need time to recover?

    Bruising is possible, plan 2 weeks ahead of any events/vacations.
