NEUROMODULATORS (BOTOX)
As we age, our skin undergoes a number of changes, and the movement of the muscles beneath the surface leads to the development of prominent lines and wrinkles. Rachelle, a dedicated nurse injector, employs a blend of advanced products and techniques to soften these facial wrinkles, achieving a smoother and more youthful profile.
Chemical Peels
A chemical peel is a cosmetic treatment administered by skincare professionals that exfoliates the outer layers of skin using a chemical solution, resulting in a refreshed and rejuvenated complexion. Benefits include improved texture, reduced fine lines and acne scarring, and a brighter skin tone. There are three main types: superficial, medium, and deep peels, each targeting different skin concerns with varying recovery times. Schedule a consultation with our professionals to determine if a chemical peel is right for you!

What are the areas we can treat?
- Forehead: Facial expressions often engage the eyebrows, leading to the formation of horizontal creases on the forehead. Neurotoxin can significantly reduce the appearance of these lines while preserving natural movement. Most individuals need between 10-20 units of Neurotoxin in this area.
- Frown Lines: The vertical lines between the eyebrows, commonly known as "11 Lines," develop from frowning or concentrating and are frequent targets for Neurotoxin. Patients typically see remarkable improvements in these lines, and many also report reduced headache symptoms related to muscle strain. Most individuals require between 15-30 units of Neurotoxin here.
- Eyes (Crow’s Feet): The skin around the eyes is particularly responsive to daily movements like smiling, squinting, and laughing, leading to the creation of Crow’s Feet. Neurotoxins can relax the surrounding muscles, resulting in a smoother appearance and diminishing wrinkles. Most people need between 12-24 units of Neurotoxin in this area.
- Eyebrows (Brow Lift): Strategic Neurotoxin injections can achieve a subtle brow lift, giving the brows a higher arch. Most individuals typically require about 10 units for this effect.
- Bunny Lines: Bunny lines appear on the nose when squinting or snorting, caused by the contraction of the nasalis muscle. Neurotoxin can effectively improve these lines, with most people requiring between 8-16 units.
- Lips: Lines around the mouth, often referred to as smoker’s lines, can arise even in non-smokers. Addressing these lines usually involves multiple treatment methods, with Neurotoxin being the first line of defense. Complementary treatments like radiofrequency microneedling and chemical peels can also enhance results. Additionally, some may achieve a “Lip Lift” with Neurotoxin injections in the upper lip, requiring around 4-8 units.
- Gummy Smile: When injected into the muscles that elevate the upper lip, Neurotoxin can limit the movement of these muscles. This helps decrease the amount of gum that shows when a person smiles. Creating a more balanced and harmonious smile. Most people require between 4-6 units of Neurotoxin in this area.
- Drooping Corners of the Mouth: For those with naturally downward-curving mouths, Neurotoxin can elevate the corners by relaxing the muscles (DAO muscles) that pull the lips down. Most people require between 6-12 units in this area.
- Chin Dimples: If you’re concerned about chin dimpling, Neurotoxin can help. The mentalis muscle causes these dimples when it contracts; injecting Neurotoxin into this muscle can significantly reduce their appearance. Most individuals need between 6-10 units for this treatment.
- Masseter: For individuals suffering from temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, Neurotoxin can help ease muscle tension, providing relief from pain and discomfort. Injecting Neurotoxin can also help slim and reshape a wider jawline, creating a more balanced facial profile. Most people require around 50-60 units of Neurotoxin in this area.
- Neck Lines (Platysma Bands): Neurotoxin can relax the platysma muscles, which are responsible for the appearance of vertical bands in the neck. This leads to a smoother, more youthful neck contour. Most people require between 30-60 units of Neurotoxin in this area.
- Excessive Sweating (Hyperhidrosis): For individuals suffering from hyperhidrosis, excessive sweating can lead to discomfort, embarrassment, and social anxiety. Neurotoxin can significantly improve comfort and quality of life. Neurotoxin works by blocking the signals from the nerves that trigger sweat glands. This effectively reduces sweating in the treated areas. Most people require around 100 units of Neurotoxin to treat axillary hyperhidrosis.
Who should not use Neurotoxin?
- You are allergic or sensitive to any of the ingredients
- You have myasthenia gravis, Eaton Lambert Syndrome, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or another muscle disorder
- You are allergic or sensitive to any botulinum toxin product
- You have an infection at the proposed injection site
- You are taking aminoglycoside antibiotics
- You are pregnant
- You are nursing
Pre Neurotoxin treatment instructions:
- Aspirin (only stop this if your family physician indicates it is safe to do so)
- Advil or Motrin
- Omegas
- Fish oils
- Vitamin E
- Garlic
- Glucosamine
- Ginseng
- Ginko biloba
Post Neurotoxin Treatment care instructions:
- Exercise: Once injected, Neurotoxin needs time to settle in your body for 24 hours, so avoid any workouts or strenuous physical activity. Just take it easy.
- Rubbing the injection sites: It’s natural to want to rub or massage the injection areas, but you should avoid this to prevent the Neurotoxin from migrating to other areas, which could lead to unwanted effects.
- Consuming alcohol: Drinking alcohol after your Neurotoxin treatment could increase the risk of bruising. It’s also advisable to avoid alcohol for a few days before your treatment.
- Sleeping on your face: If you’re someone who sleeps on your stomach, try to avoid doing so right after the procedure. Even during a short nap, pressure on the injection sites can cause the Neurotoxin to shift out of place.
- Heat exposure: Due to potential redness and swelling following the treatment, stay in the shade until the swelling subsides and avoid sunbathing.
- Blood thinners: Refrain from taking blood thinners before or after your procedure to minimize the risk of excess bleeding or bruising at the injection sites
