At Botta Medical Aesthetics & Wellness, our goal with neurotoxin treatment is not to change the way you look or eliminate every expression.
We use Botox® Cosmetic and Xeomin® to help soften certain expression lines while preserving natural facial movement and balance.
Every face is different. We consider your facial anatomy, muscle movement, areas of concern, previous treatment experience, and your goals before recommending treatment.
Our approach is intentionally conservative: refreshed, not frozen.
What Are Neurotoxins?
Botox and Xeomin are prescription injectable medications that temporarily reduce activity in selected facial muscles.
Over time, repeated movements such as frowning, squinting, smiling, and raising the eyebrows can contribute to visible lines. Neurotoxin treatment can soften the appearance of certain movement-related lines by relaxing the muscles responsible for them.
Results are temporary and develop gradually after treatment.
What Concerns Can Neurotoxins Help With?
Depending on your anatomy, the product selected, and what is appropriate for you, treatment may be considered for concerns such as:
- Frown lines between the eyebrows
- Horizontal forehead lines
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
Botox and Xeomin are different prescription products, and their FDA-approved uses are not identical. We will discuss which areas and which product may be appropriate for you during your consultation.
Botox or Xeomin?
Both Botox and Xeomin are botulinum toxin type A medications used in aesthetic medicine, but they are different products.
Some clients come to us knowing exactly which one they prefer. Others simply know that they would like to soften certain lines and want help deciding what makes sense.
You do not need to choose before your appointment.
We offer both so that treatment can be individualized rather than assuming one product is right for everyone.
Our Approach: Natural, Not Frozen
More treatment is not automatically better treatment.
We want you to continue to look like yourself.
Our goal is to soften areas that bother you while maintaining natural expression, facial balance, and movement. We would rather begin conservatively and reassess than create a result that looks overly treated.
For many clients, the best compliment is not, “You had Botox.”
It is:
“You look rested.”
What Happens at Your Appointment?
Your visit begins with a conversation about what you see when you look in the mirror and what you would like to improve.
We will evaluate your face both at rest and with expression, discuss whether neurotoxin treatment is appropriate, and develop an individualized treatment plan.
You do not need to arrive knowing how many units you need or which product you want.
That is our job.
Is Neurotoxin Treatment Right for Everyone?
No.
Botox and Xeomin are prescription medications and are not appropriate for every person or every situation.
Before treatment, we review relevant health history, medications, allergies, previous treatments, and other factors that may affect whether treatment is appropriate for you.
We will also discuss expected results, limitations, potential side effects, and alternatives before treatment.
