Neuromodulators- Frown Lines
Neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau or Daxxify can be used to soften the lines that form between our eyebrows when we frown. Sometimes patients refer to these as the "eleven lines," "frown lines" or the "worried lines".
For most people, 25-30 units of product are needed to treat this area. Effects usually last about 3 months. Overtime this can minimize the appearance of aging by softening lines at rest.

Neuromodulators: Forehead Lines
Neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau or Daxxify can be used to soften the lines that form across or forehead, giving the appearance of smoother, softer, younger skin.
For most people, 20-30 units of product are needed to treat this area. Effects usually last about 3 months. Overtime this can minimize the appearance of aging by softening lines at rest.
Neuromodulators: Crows Feet
Neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau or Daxxify can be used to soften the lines that form around the eyes, known as crows feet, giving the appearance of a less tired look.
For most people, 12-24 units of product are needed to treat this area. Effects usually last about 3 months. Overtime this can minimize the appearance of aging by softening lines at rest.
Neuromodulators: Preventative
Neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau or Daxxify can be used at lower doses as preventative measures. At these doses the muscles are still able to move but not as strong. This helps to prevent deep lines from forming over time across the forehead, between the eyes, and around the crow's feet. Patients typically need about 30-40 units for this treatment.

Neuromodulators: Under Arm Sweating
Neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau or Daxxify can be used to reduce sweating in your arm pits known as axillary hyperhydrosis. The effects typically last about 3 months and most patients need about 50-100 units to see the effect.

Neuromodulators: Jaw Pain
Neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau or Daxxify can be used to reduce your muscle strength from clenching your jaw. For some people this can help with grinding their teeth or pain in their temporomandibular joint (TMJ).
For some people it can also help give a slimmer facial appearance. Typically the results last about 3 months and most patients need about 50 units for this treatment.

Neuromodulators: Lip Flip
Neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau or Daxxify can be used to increase the way the lip flips up when you smile. This allows the lips to look more full and youthful.
For most people, 8-12 units of product are needed to treat this area. Effects usually last about 3 months. Lip flips work well in conjunction with dermal facial fillers. Some patients have temporary difficulty with using a straw or whistling after this procedure.
Filler: Lips
The lips can be augmented with dermal fillers such as Juvéderm and Restylane. These products are made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring compound in our skin.
