Neurotoxins
Neurotoxins are effective treatments that reduce lines and wrinkles, giving a smoother, younger appearance. They address the causes of wrinkles, preventing new ones from forming, and provide lasting results with little discomfort and no recovery time.

What Is Botox?
Botox is an FDA-approved neurotoxin approved for the treatment of forehead lines, frown lines between the brows, and crow's feet, and is also widely used for a range of additional aesthetic and medical indications. With decades of clinical use and one of the strongest safety records in aesthetic medicine, Botox is the most trusted and widely performed cosmetic treatment in the world.
How Does Botox Work?
Botox works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that cause targeted facial muscles to contract. This relaxes the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles, softening existing lines and preventing new ones from forming. The result is smoother, more refreshed-looking skin that still moves naturally and expressively.

Dysport and Xeomin Also Available at BeautiLab Aesthetics
While Botox is our most popular neurotoxin, BeautiLab Aesthetics also offers Dysport and Xeomin for patients looking for alternatives that may better suit their anatomy or goals.
Dysport
An FDA-approved neurotoxin that spreads slightly more broadly than Botox, making it well-suited for larger treatment areas like the forehead. A popular choice for patients who want to explore a different formulation.
Xeomin
A purified, protein-free neurotoxin that is an excellent option for patients who have developed a tolerance to other neurotoxins or prefer a cleaner formulation. Your injection specialist will help you determine the best fit during your consultation.

Botox FAQs
-
The amount of Botox, or units of Botox, you may need depends on several factors, including the area(s) being treated (such as 11s, forehead, and crow’s feet), the strength of your facial muscles, and the depth of your existing lines. A complimentary consultation with one of our injectors will help create a personalized plan for you.

Most clients describe the sensation as a tiny pinch. The needle used is quite small, goes in smoothly, and Botox is injected quickly, resulting in minimal pain. Numbing agents are not typically used for this treatment.
