Neuromodulators
Relax the Pull. Keep the Expression.
Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin work by interrupting the nerve signals driving repetitive muscle contractions, smoothing the lines they create while preventing new ones from deepening. At the right dose, in the right location, nobody looks done. They look like a rested version of themselves.
What We Treat
Precision Applications Across the Face and Body
Neuromodulators, including botulinum toxin treatments such as Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin, are among the most researched tools in aesthetic medicine. Their versatility extends well beyond smoothing forehead lines, and in every application, placement precision and dose are everything.
- Forehead lines and horizontal creases
- Glabellar lines (the 11s between the brows)
- Crow's feet and periorbital lines
- Full-face neuromodulator planning when related movement patterns need balance
- Lip flip, lip lines, and mouth-area softening when movement is the driver
- Masseter reduction for jaw slimming and TMJ relief
- Hyperhidrosis treatment for excessive underarm sweating

Current path
Neuromodulators
Botox and similar wrinkle-relaxing treatments for movement-driven lines, tension patterns, and full-face balancing.
Hyaluronic Acid Fillers
The lead category when support, contour, lip shape, projection, or structure loss is the real driver.
Explore this pathLaser
A core category for texture, tone, pores, early photoaging, and device-based resurfacing.
Explore this pathSkin Quality
The umbrella category for texture, pores, acne scarring, tone, firmness, smoothness, hydration, lines, peels, and skin boosters.
Explore this pathPhased Planning
Used when one category alone will not keep the final result balanced across face, neck, and other zones.
Explore this pathConcerns that often lead into wrinkle relaxers
This keeps neuromodulators connected to the specific concerns where movement usually leads, while still letting related areas stay easy to explore.
Concern
Forehead Lines
A classic movement-driven concern that usually leads into neuromodulator planning.
Usually a movement-first concern.
Concern
Glabellar Lines
The 11s between the brows are usually a muscle-driven problem first.
The 11s usually start with wrinkle-relaxer logic.
Concern
Crow's Feet
Usually treated as a movement-driven concern, then refined only if the surrounding skin also needs support.
Usually the cleanest first move.
Concern
Full-Face Neuromodulator Treatment
A broader neuromodulator planning entry when movement patterns across the face need to be balanced together.
This stays inside neuromodulator planning rather than becoming a separate product category.
Concern
Hyperhidrosis
Excessive sweating can be treated with botulinum toxin when candidacy is appropriate.
Botulinum toxin is the relevant treatment family for excessive sweating when candidacy fits.
Concern
Smoker's Lines / Perioral Rhytids
When vertical lip lines, smoker's lines, or perioral rhytids are reading faster than the rest of the mouth area.
Often the best lead when movement is driving the lines.
What to Expect
A clear process from consultation to maintenance.
1. Personalized Consultation
Your facial anatomy, movement patterns, and goals are reviewed first, then a custom dosing and placement plan is mapped.
2. Precision Treatment
Ultra-fine needles and strategic placement. Most sessions take 15-30 minutes with minimal discomfort.
3. Results Unfold
Initial changes appear in 3-5 days. Full effect settles around 2 weeks. No procedure artifacts after 24 hours.
4. Maintain and Optimize
Most patients return every 3-4 months. Longevity often improves with consistent treatment over time.

Neuromodulator FAQ
Answers to the most common consultation questions.
Does it hurt?
Most patients describe it as a quick pinch. We apply topical numbing if you prefer.
Will I look frozen?
No. The goal is natural movement with softer lines, never an overdone result. Dose and placement are calibrated to your anatomy and how expressive you want to remain.
What's the difference between Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin?
All are FDA-approved botulinum toxin type A products. They differ in formulation and diffusion pattern. Beauty Medica recommends based on your anatomy, the treatment area, and your response history.
How many FDA-approved aesthetic botulinum toxin brands are there in the U.S.?
As of April 15, 2026, current FDA approval records indicate six aesthetic botulinum toxin brands are approved in the United States: Botox Cosmetic, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau, DAXXIFY, and LETYBO. Beauty Medica recommends the product that fits your anatomy, treatment area, and response history rather than treating the brand name like the main decision.
What is the difference between treating the mouth area with a neuromodulator and with filler?
A neuromodulator helps when movement is the driver, such as vertical lip lines, an upper lip that tucks inward, or corners of the mouth pulling down. Filler helps when the issue is true support loss, border loss, or thinning. Some patients need one, some the other, and some a skin-first approach instead. The right choice depends on what is actually aging the area.
How often will I need treatment?
Most patients return every 3-4 months. With consistent treatment over time, many patients find their results last longer as muscles adapt.
Is there downtime?
Minimal. Most patients return to normal activities immediately with a few same-day precautions, no lying flat, no vigorous exercise for several hours.
I've seen Botox offered at a spa. What's the difference?
The product name may be the same, but the expertise is not. Neuromodulator dosing and placement require detailed anatomical knowledge. A few millimeters changes the outcome entirely. A board-certified medical provider is trained in anatomy, complication management, and candidacy assessment before any injection is performed. Your complimentary consultation determines whether a neuromodulator fits, which product and dose make sense, and how it belongs in the broader plan.
Design Your Neuromodulator Plan
A consultation maps how neuromodulators fit into your specific timeline, goals, and anatomy, not a generic protocol.
