Botox, Dysport, Daxxify in Wilmington, NC

Botox works by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause fine lines and wrinkles. It blocks nerve signals to the muscles, preventing them from contracting, which helps smooth existing lines and prevent new ones from forming. The result is a refreshed, smoother appearance that lasts about 3-4 months.

Botox can be injected in various areas to smooth wrinkles, enhance facial contours, and relax overactive muscles. Common treatment areas include the forehead, crow’s feet (around the eyes), glabellar lines (between the brows), bunny lines (on the nose), masseters (for jaw slimming), chin (to smooth dimpling and texture), DAO (to lift a downturned mouth), gummy smile, lip flip, neck (for platysmal bands), and jawline (for contouring).

Discomfort is minimal and feels like a slight pinch. The needle we use is very small, and the treatment is quick. Plus, we use a small vibrating device to make the treatment more comfortable for our patients. Your comfort is our priority!

Your secret is safe with us! They might notice your smooth skin or an “I just went on vacation”- refreshed look, but they won’t be able to tell that you had it done. We are experts in providing natural-looking results.

Relatively no downtime. Temporary swelling and minimal redress at the injection sites may occur post-treatment, but this will dissipate within a couple of hours. Bruising is not common but can occur.

Results start to show around 4-7 days after the treatment, and full effects are visible within 2 weeks.

When the lines on your skin bother you or you want to look more rested, come on in and get your Botox in Wilmington, NC!

A lip flip is a quick, non-invasive treatment where a small amount of Botox is injected into the upper lip to relax the muscles and subtly roll the lip outward. This creates the appearance of a fuller, more defined lip without adding volume, making it a great option for those who want a natural, subtle enhancement.

We recommend scheduling treatments 3-4 months apart.

If you started Botox treatments and choose not to be retreated, your muscles will slowly regain movement, and those fine lines and wrinkles may start to reappear. The longer you've been consistently treating, the longer your results may last—but over time, your skin will gradually return to its natural state.

Botox and Dysport should not be used if you are pregnant or lactating.
