Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Botox®, Dysport®, and Jeuveau®?
All three products contain botulinum toxin type A as their active ingredient, but they differ slightly in formulation and protein content. Botox® has been around the longest and is the most widely recognized brand. Dysport® tends to diffuse a bit more, making it good for larger areas, and many clients report it works faster. Jeuveau® is the newest option and was designed specifically for cosmetic use.
How do I know which neurotoxin is right for me?
The best neurotoxin for you depends on several factors, including your treatment areas, desired onset time, and previous experience with these products. If you’re new to neurotoxin treatments, we typically recommend starting with Botox® due to its predictable results and extensive track record.
Will neurotoxin treatments make me look frozen or unnatural?
When administered properly by a trained professional, neurotoxin treatments should never make you look frozen or expressionless. Our approach focuses on creating a natural, refreshed appearance that still allows you to show emotions and facial expressions.
How long will my results last, and when should I schedule my next treatment?
Most clients enjoy results that last 3-4 months from their neurotoxin treatment. However, this can differ based on a number of factors, including your metabolism, the area treated, the specific product used, and how your muscles respond to the treatment.
Is it painful to get neurotoxin injections?
Most clients describe neurotoxin injections as causing only minimal discomfort. The needle used is very small, and the procedure is quick. Many compare the sensation to a small pinch that lasts just a second per injection. If you’re concerned about discomfort, we can apply a topical numbing cream before your treatment. We also use special techniques like vibration distraction and ice to make the experience more comfortable.
