Most neurotoxin treatments last three to six months, depending on the product used, metabolism, and lifestyle. Some patients may need touch-ups sooner, while others enjoy longer-lasting results.
Neurotoxin treatments at Advanced Body and Laser Center (ABLC) in Visalia offer a safe, effective, and non-surgical way to reduce the appearance of wrinkles while maintaining your natural expressions.
With advanced injectables like Botox, Dysport, Jeuveau, Daxxify, and Xeomin, our skilled providers customize treatments to help you achieve smoother skin and a refreshed, youthful look.
Whether you’re looking to soften forehead lines, reduce crow’s feet, or prevent deep wrinkles from forming, we offer a neurotoxin solution tailored to your needs.
Neurotoxin injectables are some of the most widely used aesthetic treatments in the world. They provide a quick and effective way to reduce wrinkles caused by repeated facial expressions. These treatments work by relaxing targeted muscles, preventing them from contracting too strongly and deepening fine lines.
Neurotoxins are injectable treatments derived from botulinum toxin type A, a purified protein that temporarily relaxes muscles. While botulinum toxin is known for its cosmetic uses, it has also been used in medical treatments for decades.
In the aesthetic industry, neurotoxins are primarily used to reduce dynamic wrinkles, which form from repeated movements like smiling, frowning, or squinting. These treatments allow the skin to smooth out naturally, helping to prevent the deepening of wrinkles while maintaining natural expressions.
Neurotoxins work by blocking nerve signals that tell targeted muscles to contract. When injected in precise amounts, they relax the muscles responsible for fine lines and wrinkles, allowing the overlying skin to appear smoother and more youthful.
Results from neurotoxin treatments typically begin to appear within a few days, with full effects visible in 7-14 days. Depending on the type of neurotoxin used, results can last anywhere from three to six months before a maintenance treatment is needed.
Neurotoxins are primarily used to treat and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, but they also have other aesthetic applications. The most commonly treated areas include:
Forehead Lines: Softens horizontal lines that develop from raising the eyebrows.
Frown Lines (Glabellar Lines): Reduces the vertical “11s” between the brows.
Crow’s Feet: Smooths the fine lines around the outer corners of the eyes.
Bunny Lines: Minimizes the wrinkles that appear on the nose when smiling or scrunching.
Lip Lines: Softens vertical lines above the lips, also known as smoker’s lines.
Neck Bands (Platysmal Bands): Reduces the appearance of vertical neck bands for a smoother neckline.
At ABLC in Visalia, we offer a full range of FDA-approved neurotoxins to suit different aesthetic needs. Each of these injectables works similarly but has unique characteristics that may make one a better fit for your goals.
Botox is the most well-known neurotoxin and is FDA-approved for multiple cosmetic uses, including forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet. It delivers reliable, consistent results and is a great option for first-time patients.
Dysport spreads more easily than Botox, making it ideal for larger treatment areas such as the forehead. It has a slightly faster onset than Botox, with results appearing in 2-3 days.
Often called “Newtox,” Jeuveau is formulated specifically for aesthetic use. It is a great alternative to Botox and provides similar results for treating fine lines and wrinkles.
Daxxify is a longer-lasting neurotoxin, with results lasting up to six months or more. It also has a faster onset, typically producing visible effects within 1-2 days.
Xeomin is a pure-form neurotoxin that does not contain any added proteins. This makes it a great option for patients who have built a resistance to Botox or other neurotoxins.
Neurotoxins are effective for both men and women looking to reduce fine lines and maintain a youthful appearance.
You may be a good candidate for neurotoxin treatments if you:
1.) Want to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles.
2.) Prefer a non-surgical, quick procedure with minimal downtime.
3.) Want to prevent fine lines from becoming deeper over time.
4.) Are in good overall health with realistic expectations.
Neurotoxin treatments may not be suitable for individuals who:
1.) Are pregnant or breastfeeding.
2.) Have a history of neuromuscular disorders.
3.) Have had allergic reactions to botulinum toxin injections.
Here’s what you can expect during the Neurotoxin treatment process:
Your treatment journey begins with a one-on-one consultation with one of our experienced injectors. During this visit, we will discuss your aesthetic concerns and how we can work to achieve your beauty goals. Your ABLC practitioner will assess your skin and identify the best neurotoxin for you.
The neurotoxin treatment process is quick and minimally invasive, typically lasting 15 to 30 minutes.
Your injector will start by cleansing the treatment area to remove any impurities. They will then apply a topical numbing cream to keep you comfortable. Using a fine, sterile needle, your provider will carefully inject the neurotoxin into the targeted muscles with precision.
You will then be given some important aftercare instructions to follow to ensure that you achieve the best results possible from your treatment.
The timeline for results depends on the type of neurotoxin used:
Botox, Jeuveau, Xeomin, and Dysport: Results start appearing in 3-5 days, with full effects visible in 7-14 days.
Daxxify: Results develop within 1-2 days, with full effects appearing within a week.
Your smoother, refreshed appearance will last anywhere from three to six months, depending on the neurotoxin used and individual factors such as metabolism and lifestyle.
Choosing the right neurotoxin depends on factors like treatment area, desired longevity, and personal preferences. Our expert ABLC practitioners will help you determine the best option during your consultation.
