Let’s Talk Tox: Smooth Away Lines With Neuromodulators

Softening lines and preventing deeper wrinkles does not have to mean freezing your natural expression. That is where Tox (a.k.a Botulinum Toxin A – such as Botox, Xeomin, and Dysport) come in. These advanced injectables relax targeted facial muscles to reduce dynamic wrinkles, helping you look refreshed and feel more confident without ever looking overdone. At RESTOR Medical Spa, we guide you through this process with a focus on natural, beautiful results.

How Neuromodulators Work to Smooth Lines

Lines form when repeated facial movements, like frowning, squinting, or raising your brows, gradually create creases in the skin. Neuromodulators work by gently relaxing the tiny muscles that cause these movements so that your skin can relax. Additionally, by stopping this damage – neuromodulators help to keep future lines from forming.

There are some nuances about how you can get your Tox done. Let’s talk about a couple: 

“Hard Tox”

The higher the dose you get when you get your tox done – the more muscles it will affect – and usually for a longer time. When we inject Tox in this manner – we will get the greatest possible control over the lines – but it will also reduce your ability to emote – and it can lead to a frozen look. 

People choose higher doses because it offers:

  • Longer-lasting smoothing and more control of the lines in the forehead and around the eyes

Our team will help you decide if this is the right fit based on your goals and treatment history.

Soft – or “Micro” Tox: Line Softening, Not Freezing

When we use a lower dose – we do not get as much control over the lines – but our patients will retain their ability to show emotion – and many people prefer this natural look. 

Why We Use Xeomin® – The Pure Tox

Xeomin® is a long-trusted option for relaxing dynamic wrinkles. It is known as a “naked injectable” because it contains only the active neuromodulator ingredient without unnecessary proteins or additives. This purity means less risk of resistance building up over time, so results will stay reliable with each treatment.

Clients love Xeomin® for:

  • Softening frown lines and crow’s feet without changing natural expression 
  • Its straightforward formula along with minimal risk of side effects 
  • Quick, convenient treatments that fit easily into any routine

What to Expect During Treatment

Your visit begins with an in-depth consultation where we assess your facial anatomy, muscle movement, and discuss your goals. We then create a personalized plan to treat the right muscles with just the right amount of product, never too much.

Most sessions take about 15-20 minutes and involve only minor discomfort. There is minimal downtime, so you can get back to your day quickly. Some mild redness or swelling is normal and usually fades fast.

How to Maintain and Extend Your Results

The healthier your skin is – the longer your Tox results will last. We recommend Lasers or Microneedling work to keep your skin strong and elastic. A treatment with Tox will typically last about 3 months – depending on how your body responds.

Pairing neuromodulators with good skincare, daily sun protection, and other rejuvenating treatments can enhance your results even more. We help you build a treatment plan that fits your skin’s needs today and in the future.

Why Choose Tox at Restor Medical Spa

Choosing where and how you get neuromodulators matters. We provide skilled, subtle treatments that highlight your natural features rather than change them. Every injection is carefully placed to give you smooth, balanced results that help you look like you, just a bit more rested.
