Injectables & Neurotoxins

At The Beverly Hills MedSpa, we offer advanced neurotoxin treatments to help you achieve smoother, younger-looking skin. Neurotoxin injections utilize a purified form of botulinum toxin to gently reduce muscle activity, effectively softening wrinkles and fine lines.

Neurotoxin treatments work by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions. Normally, nerves release a chemical called acetylcholine, which triggers muscles to contract and form expression lines. When a neurotoxin is carefully injected into specific facial muscles, it prevents the release of acetylcholine, allowing those muscles to relax. This results in a smoother skin appearance and reduction in dynamic wrinkles, such as forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet.

Results typically appear within a few days and become more noticeable over two weeks. The effects generally last around three to six months, depending on factors like the treatment area, muscle activity, and individual response. As the nerve endings regenerate, muscle movement gradually returns, making routine maintenance treatments necessary to preserve results. In addition to cosmetic benefits, neurotoxin injections may also help manage conditions like chronic migraines, excessive sweating, or muscle spasms.

All neurotoxin treatments are performed by experienced medical professionals, ensuring a smooth procedure with minimal discomfort and virtually no downtime.

About Injectables Neurotoxins

Neurotoxin treatments are widely used to soften fine lines and reduce the appearance of wrinkles for a smoother, more youthful look. At The Beverly Hills MedSpa, Melanie Speed, APRN, NP-C, CANS, offers personalized neurotoxin treatments using advanced techniques to ensure subtle, natural-looking results tailored to your facial structure and aesthetic goals.

Our skilled team specializes in advanced cosmetic treatments designed to help our clients achieve their aesthetic goals and maintain a youthful, radiant appearance.

Neurotoxin injections are a safe, minimally invasive option designed to temporarily relax facial muscles that contribute to dynamic wrinkles. Common treatment areas include horizontal forehead lines, vertical frown lines between the eyebrows (often called “11” lines), crow’s feet around the eyes, and bunny lines near the nose. They are also frequently used to soften vertical lip lines, subtly lift downturned corners of the mouth, and reduce signs of facial tension.

Beyond the upper face, neurotoxins can also be applied to rejuvenate the lower face and neck. This includes relaxing prominent neck bands for a smoother neckline and reducing a dimpled or “orange peel” texture on the chin. Each treatment is carefully customized to match the individual’s facial structure and cosmetic goals, providing natural-looking improvements while preserving the ability to express emotions.

At The Beverly Hills MedSpa, we offer personalized care in a comfortable and modern setting. Our neurotoxin injections help smooth wrinkles and refresh your appearance without surgery or long recovery times.

Neurotoxins, particularly Botulinum Toxin Type A (BTX-A), have become a popular non-surgical option for addressing various cosmetic concerns.

Neurotoxins work by blocking nerve signals to the muscles, causing them to relax. This relaxation reduces the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, those caused by facial expressions.

Conditions treated

1. Wrinkle Reduction: Reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, especially those around the eyes, forehead, and between the eyebrows.
2. Migraine Prevention: Injections of neurotoxin into specific muscles can help prevent chronic migraines.
3. Jawline Slimming: By relaxing the masseter muscles, neurotoxins can help slim the appearance of the jawline.

Impact of neurotoxins

Individuals may notice visible lines and wrinkles, particularly around the eyes, forehead, and between the eyebrows. These lines can deepen with facial expressions like smiling, frowning, or squinting. After treatment, the targeted muscles relax, resulting in a smoother and more youthful appearance. Fine lines and wrinkles are significantly reduced, and the overall facial expression appears more relaxed and refreshed.

Benefits

Procedure

We specialize in customized neurotoxin treatments like Botox, Xeomin, and Dysport to help you achieve smoother, younger-looking skin. Your journey begins with a personalized consultation, where a trained aesthetic provider discusses your goals and develops a customized treatment plan tailored to your desired results. This step ensures that your needs are clearly understood and that the approach is both safe and effective for your facial anatomy.

During the neurotoxin procedure, the provider cleanses and prepares the targeted areas. A topical numbing cream or ice may be used for comfort, though many individuals find the injections to be quick and easily tolerated. Using precise techniques, the neurotoxin is injected into specific facial muscles that contribute to wrinkles and fine lines. The session usually takes 10 to 20 minutes, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.

After treatment, some mild redness, swelling, or bruising may appear at the injection sites, but these effects usually subside within a few hours to a couple of days. Normal activities can typically be resumed right away, although it’s advised to avoid strenuous exercise, massaging the treated areas, or lying flat for several hours. Results begin to appear within a few days, with the full effect visible in about one to two weeks. The smoother appearance generally lasts three to four months.

At The Beverly Hills MedSpa, your satisfaction and safety are our top priorities. Always follow your provider’s personalized aftercare instructions and schedule follow-up appointments as advised to maintain your flawless appearance and achieve the best possible results.

Results

Timeline

At The Beverly Hills MedSpa, Melanie Speed, APRN, NP-C, CANS, and our skilled team pride themselves on delivering personalized, high-quality aesthetic treatments tailored precisely to your unique goals.

Most clients begin to see the effects of neurotoxin treatments within 3 to 5 days after their injections. These early results include a gradual softening of fine lines and dynamic wrinkles in treated areas, such as the forehead, between the brows, or around the eyes. Full results typically develop within 10 to 14 days as the treated muscles fully relax and the skin appears smoother and more refreshed.

The longevity of results can vary slightly based on individual factors like metabolism, muscle strength, and the specific product used. On average, the effects last about 3 to 4 months. To maintain a consistently youthful appearance, many clients choose to schedule follow-up treatments every few months. Your provider will help you determine the best timing for repeat sessions based on your goals and how your body responds.

Typically, the rejuvenating effects of neurotoxin injections last between 3 and 4 months before muscle activity resumes and fine lines gradually return. To maintain your refreshed appearance and support lasting results, we recommend scheduling regular appointments with our expert team at The Beverly Hills MedSpa.
