Tox Injections

Located in Connecticut, our Samara MedSpa offers neurotoxin treatments, which are among the most popular cosmetic procedures in the United States. These anti-wrinkle injections are effective in treating facial wrinkles that are caused by movement. Our experienced provider can use small doses of Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin to target areas such as the 11s, brow furrow, frown lines, worry lines, and crow's feet, resulting in a youthful and refreshed appearance.
Neurotoxin treatment is quick and has minimal downtime, with visible results appearing within a week and full correction achieved after two weeks. These results typically last for three to five months, and frequent touch-ups can extend the duration of the treatment while requiring fewer units per session.

FAQs

Neurotoxins, such as Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin, are injectable treatments that temporarily relax the muscles in specific areas of the face and neck. The active ingredient in these neurotoxins is botulinum toxin, a natural and purified protein that blocks nerve impulses to the targeted muscle. By blocking these nerve impulses, the muscle is temporarily paralyzed, which reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines in the treated area. With neurotoxins, we can treat wrinkles caused by dynamic movements, such as frowning and squinting. These treatments are especially effective for treating wrinkles on the forehead, the area around the eyes (crow’s feet), and between the eyebrows (often referred to as elevens). The results of neurotoxin treatments typically last between three to four months, after which the treatment can be repeated to maintain the results. It’s important to have neurotoxin treatments performed by a licensed and experienced healthcare provider who can ensure the treatment is administered safely and effectively.
Neurotoxins block the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that controls muscle movement. By preventing acetylcholine from reaching the muscle, the muscle cannot contract as strongly or at all, resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance.

Neurotoxins are commonly used to treat:

  • Forehead: Neurotoxins can smooth out horizontal forehead lines and wrinkles.
  • Glabella: The area between the eyebrows, also known as the glabella or “11 lines,” can be treated with neurotoxins to soften frown lines.
  • Crow’s Feet: Neurotoxins can be used to minimize the appearance of lines and wrinkles around the eyes, commonly known as crow’s feet.
  • Bunny Lines: The wrinkles on the sides of the nose when you scrunch up your face can also be treated with neurotoxins.
  • Nasolabial Folds: Neurotoxins can soften the appearance of deep lines and wrinkles that run vertically from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth.
  • Lips: Neurotoxins can create a subtle lift to the upper lip or soften the appearance of vertical lines around the lips.
  • Chin: Neurotoxins can relax the muscles in the chin, reducing the appearance of dimpling or “orange peel” texture.
  • Neck: Neurotoxins can treat horizontal necklines and bands, as well as create a subtle lift to the neck and jawline.
