Botox Cosmetic

Botox is the household name that turned "neurotoxin" into a verb. It effectively softens forehead lines, frown lines between the brows, and crow's feet around the eyes. Results typically appear within 5 to 14 days and last 3 to 4 months.

Dysport

Dysport has a slightly smaller molecule than Botox, which allows it to diffuse more broadly and onset faster, often within 2 to 5 days. It is particularly well suited for larger treatment areas like the forehead. Results last 3 to 4 months and are comparable to Botox in longevity.

Letybo

Letybo is one of the newest FDA-approved neurotoxins on the market. It offers a fast onset and precise placement, making it an excellent option for patients who want quick, natural-looking results. Letybo is ideal for patients seeking a modern formula with a well-established safety profile.

Daxxify

Daxxify is the longest-lasting neurotoxin currently available, with results lasting up to 6 months for most patients. Its peptide-enhanced formula sets it apart from every other option on the market, ideal for patients who want fewer appointments per year without sacrificing results.
