BOTOX® Cosmetic, Dysport®, Jeuveau®

Are lines and wrinkles getting you down?

Well, you’ve come to the right place.  Ageless Beauty Starts Here®. 

Neurotoxin injections have been the #1 facial rejuvenation treatment for years thanks to the popularity of BOTOX® Cosmetic and other neurotoxin treatments. Spa Medical has attained Diamond status with Allergan, putting the injectable practice among the top 2% in the country. Clinical director, Terri Harper, MSN, FNP-C, is among the most experienced providers in the US and has been an international trainer for over 15 years. Mary-Kate Hunnicutt, PA-C has trained under Terri and uses the same gentle techniques with conservative, natural results.

How Do Neurotoxins Slow Aging?

Repetitive motion of muscles around the forehead and eyes leaves the skin with lines and wrinkles, brow furrows, and crow’s feet. Neurotoxins block those movements, giving your skin a break from the crunching of muscle movement. Spa Medical offers three FDA-approved neuromodulators for treatment. The experience of our injectors will help determine the best product to address your concerns.

BOTOX® Cosmetic is the king of neurotoxins. FDA-approved in 2002 for cosmetic purposes, BOTOX® Cosmetic has been shaving years off patients’ faces by the millions. Spa Medical’s injectors know the art of muscle manipulation with neuromodulators in order to achieve a natural, great result. Terri Harper’s expertise with BOTOX® Cosmetic injections is internationally recognized; she’s taught thousands of medical providers the art of injecting BOTOX® Cosmetic. 

Dysport® is FDA-approved and similar to BOTOX® Cosmetic with trace protein differences, which may make it act slightly differently. It may take effect quicker, last longer or take less time depending on the individual’s metabolism of the drug. Furrows between the brows can be treated with Dysport® and are a result of frowning or scowling (such as at a computer screen). Dysport® relaxes the muscle, helping the skin diminish visible lines and preventing new ones from forming.

Jeuveau® has recently burst onto the scene in 2019 as a third FDA-approved alternative to BOTOX® Cosmetic. With a slightly different formula and manufacturing process, it has proven to be just as effective as the other drugs used for cosmetic concerns. All three neuromodulators have unique qualities, providing more options for individual needs.

Am I a Good Candidate?

If you’re tired of appearing haggard or looking older than you feel, and you want the best treatment available by the best providers, you may be an ideal candidate for Spa Medical’s neurotoxin treatments. Feel Young? Look Young!®  Neurotoxins are not recommended for pregnant or lactating women.

You might be perfect for BOTOX® Cosmetic, Dysport® or Jeuveau® if you’ve noticed dynamic wrinkles surfacing: those lines that appear when you smile, frown or squint. As for the age range, patients from their 20s to their 70s can benefit from neurotoxin injectables, though the approach may look different at different ages. Younger patients often use neurotoxins preventatively, stopping wrinkles before they become deeply etched into the skin, while older patients appreciate how these treatments soften existing lines while preventing further deepening.

What is Treatment Like?

During your initial consultation, we’ll carefully evaluate your facial anatomy, discuss your goals and concerns with you and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored specifically to you.

Your facial structure and specific concerns dictate the details of your treatment plan and quantity of neurotoxin, determining the number of injections required. The product is injected with a tiny needle creating a sensation similar to tapping your fingernail on the skin.  While some areas of the face are more sensitive than others, most patients report an average of 1 on a pain scale of 1-10. At Spa Medical we strive to respect your busy schedule so our goal is to provide timely treatments with very little waiting. A typical BOTOX® Cosmetic appointment is between 15-30 minutes.

After the treatment is complete, we will address any aftercare questions you have and schedule follow-up appointments as necessary.

What are the Results?*

Depending on the neurotoxin that’s best for you, you’ll begin to see results between 3 and 10 days while lasting an average of 3 months. Your wrinkles will relax and your skin will smooth out while your facial expressions are only minimally compromised. There are no surprised or frozen looks with Spa Medical’s artistic neurotoxin techniques. You’ve come to the best.

As your neurotoxin begins working, you’ll notice your forehead lines softening when you raise your eyebrows. The furrows between your brows will relax, giving you a more approachable, less stern appearance. Crow’s feet fade, making your eyes look brighter and more open. Throughout this process, you maintain full control over your facial expressions.

How long your results last depends on several factors. Most patients enjoy smooth, youthful-looking skin for three to four months, though first-time patients might notice results fading slightly sooner as their body adjusts to the treatment. With consistent treatments, many patients find their results lasting progressively longer as the targeted muscles become trained to relax.

Peak results typically appear around two weeks post-treatment, which makes this timing ideal for special events or important occasions.

Is There Downtime?

There is typically no downtime with these types of treatments.  You can return to work or enjoy an evening out immediately following treatment.

Immediately after your session, you may notice tiny red marks at the injection sites, similar to ant bites. These typically fade within a few hours or less. Some patients experience slight swelling or minimal bruising, though this is uncommon when treatments are performed by experienced injectors using proper technique.

Your injector will provide specific aftercare instructions to optimize your results and minimize any potential side effects. Generally, you’ll want to avoid lying down for four hours post-treatment, skip strenuous exercise for 24 hours and avoid touching or massaging the treated areas for the first day. These simple precautions help the neurotoxin settle properly into the targeted muscles.

Do Neurotoxins Pair Well With Other Treatments?

The short answer: yes, but it depends on the treatment. 

Neurotoxins and Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers work synergistically with neurotoxins to address different aging concerns. While BOTOX® Cosmetic, Dysport® and Jeuveau® relax muscles that create dynamic wrinkles, dermal fillers restore lost volume and smooth static lines that remain visible even when your face is at rest. 

Pairing With Microneedling for Improved Skin Texture

Morpheus8 RF Microneedling pairs exceptionally well with neurotoxin treatments for patients looking for more comprehensive skin rejuvenation. While your neurotoxins smooth expression lines, Morpheus8 tightens skin, improves texture and stimulates collagen production from within. This combination addresses both surface concerns and deeper structural changes that occur with aging.

Chemical Peels and Laser Treatments 

Chemical peels and laser treatments improve your neurotoxin results by addressing sun damage, hyperpigmentation, uneven texture and tone. The combination creates radiant, youthful-looking skin that gives off that healthy glow from every angle.

What Should I Do After Neurotoxin Treatment? 

Protecting your beautiful results as long as possible is a simple process, but one that requires consistency. 

Sun protection is your most powerful tool for preserving your neurotoxin injectable results. UV damage breaks down collagen and speeds up the aging process, which will work directly counter to your neurotoxin treatment. In other words, daily broad-spectrum SPF is an absolute must! 

Your skincare routine also plays a major role in maintaining results. High-quality products containing retinoids, vitamin C and hyaluronic acid support your skin’s natural healing processes and collagen production. 

Staying well-hydrated keeps your skin plump and healthy-looking while supporting overall cellular function. Aim for at least eight glasses of water daily, increasing intake during exercise or hot weather. 

Managing stress protects your investment in multiple ways. Chronic stress increases cortisol levels that can accelerate aging, while the facial expressions associated with stress (frowning, furrowing your brow, etc.), work directly against your neurotoxin treatment. 

Sleep position matters more than most people realize. Sleeping on your back prevents your face from pressing into your pillow night after night, which can create lines and wrinkles that undermine your neurotoxin results. If side-sleeping is unavoidable, invest in a silk or satin pillowcase that creates less friction against your skin.

Maintain regular follow-up appointments even when you’re thrilled with your results. These visits allow your injector to assess how your skin is responding, adjust your treatment plan as needed and catch any concerns early.

FILLER FOR LIPS
