Neurotoxins
Neurotoxin treatments are among the most trusted ways to refresh your appearance without surgery. These quick, precise injections help smooth expression lines and relax wrinkle-forming muscles, revealing a softer, more youthful look. With minimal downtime and consistent results, neurotoxins remain a favorite for clients seeking natural rejuvenation.
What Are Neurotoxins and How Do They Work?
Neurotoxins, such as Botox® and Dysport®, are injectable treatments designed to temporarily relax facial muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles—those formed by repeated facial expressions. By softening muscle movement, neurotoxins reduce the appearance of lines and creases, allowing the skin to appear smoother and more refreshed.
These injectables target specific areas, such as crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead wrinkles. The treatment takes only a few minutes and requires no downtime, making it easy to schedule during a lunch break. Results typically appear within a few days and last three to four months before natural muscle movement gradually returns.
When performed by skilled injectors, neurotoxin treatments preserve facial expression while subtly minimizing visible signs of aging.

Neurotoxins work by blocking the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions. When these muscles are relaxed, the overlying skin has a chance to smooth out, softening existing lines and preventing new ones from forming.
Most clients choose neurotoxin injections to treat:
- Frown lines between the brows (glabellar lines)
- Horizontal forehead lines
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Bunny lines on the nose
- Lip lines and downturned corners of the mouth
- Neck bands or “tech neck”
Regular treatments can train facial muscles to contract less aggressively over time, helping to maintain smoother, more relaxed skin even between visits.

Common Concerns Treated with Neurotoxins
Neurotoxin injections can treat various areas on the face and body for both cosmetic and therapeutic benefits. The most commonly treated include:
- Forehead wrinkles: The forehead is one of the most popular areas to inject Botox® and Dysport. The treatments help reduce the appearance of horizontal lines across the forehead caused by repetitive muscle movements.
- Crow’s feet: Another prominent area is the skin around the eyes, specifically the crow’s feet, which are fine lines that develop at the outer corners of your eyes when you smile or squint.
- Masseters: Also known as “jaw Botox”, this target area is the muscle that helps with the action of chewing. It connects your lower jawbone to your cheekbone. Botox here can help with jaw pain and clenching, help with teeth grinding, and contour the face.
- Frown lines: Botox® and Dysport® are highly effective in minimizing frown lines—also known as glabellar lines—that form between your eyebrows due to facial expressions like furrowing or concentrating.
Other popular areas to inject Botox and Dysport are above the lip to flip it up and out, the sides of the nose, and dimpling on the chin. Botox® can also be used for migraine relief.
The cost of your neurotoxin treatment depends on the number of areas treated and the amount of product needed to achieve your desired results. Some clients prefer to treat multiple areas at once for comprehensive rejuvenation. For accurate pricing and a customized quote, schedule a consultation with Beyond Skin Aesthetics.

Frequently asked questions
Both Botox® and Dysport® provide temporary results. Generally, the effects of Botox® last about three months, while Dysport® typically lasts around three to four months. However, individual results vary and metabolism, muscle strength, and dosage can influence the longevity of the results. It is important to note that regular maintenance treatments are necessary to maintain desired results.
As with any medical treatment, medical weight loss and peptide therapy may have potential side effects. However, these risks are minimized under proper supervision by trained professionals at Beyond Skin Aesthetics. Possible side effects vary depending on your health status and treatment protocol. Mild reactions can include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, temporary soreness or redness at injection sites.
We ask that you come to your appointment with no makeup on. It's also advised to avoid non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like ibuprofen and any alcohol consumption two days before treatment. Take a supplement to prevent bruises if you know you are bruise-prone.
