WHAT IS NEUROTOXIN?
Botulinum toxin is a neurotoxic protein that causes flaccid paralysis to the muscle being injected. Neurotoxin injections temporarily relax targeted muscles in order to prevent unwanted muscle movement and creasing of the skin. The result is smoother looking skin and a more refreshed appearance.
However, neurotoxin injections do not correct or fill static lines or wrinkles that have become permanent. Routine neurotoxin treatments will help prevent existing wrinkles from becoming permanent and help stop new wrinkles from forming.

What are facial fillers?
Facial fillers are injectables that give your skin and subdermal tissues a plumping and lifting effect. If you’re unhappy with your appearance because of new or worsening sagging, wrinkles, or hollowness, Leslie and her team can strategically inject facial fillers to temporarily counteract the combination of lost facial fat and increasing skin laxity.
