What Is Needle Tox?

“Needle Tox” is a colloquial term for neuromodulator injections—popularly known under brand names like BOTOX®, Dysport®, or Xeomin®. These FDA-approved injectables work by temporarily relaxing facial muscles that cause expression lines, helping to smooth existing wrinkles and prevent new ones from forming.

What Needle Tox Treats

  • Forehead lines
  • Frown lines (11s between brows)
  • Crow’s feet around the eyes
  • Bunny lines on the nose
  • Lip lines or “smoker’s lines”
  • Chin dimpling
  • Jaw tension or clenching

Needle Tox is a versatile treatment that benefits a wide range of patients. A personalized consultation will determine the best dosing and injection points for your goals. The following are ideal candidates:

  • Adults bothered by visible frown lines or crow’s feet

What to Expect During Your Needle Tox Appointment

Your visit begins with a short consultation to assess your facial anatomy and expression habits. Based on your goals, we map the ideal injection points and use ultra-fine needles for precision.

  1. Brief consultation and facial assessment
  2. Cleanse and mark targeted areas
  3. Administer small injections into facial muscles
  4. Apply a cold compress if needed
  5. Return to normal activities immediately

Recovery and Results

There’s no downtime with Needle Tox. Minor redness or swelling at injection sites typically fades within an hour. Results begin to appear within three to five days, with full effects visible at 10–14 days and lasting three to four months.
