Neurotoxins Care Guide

Getting the most out of your Neurotoxins treatment starts before you even sit in the chair. A few simple steps before and after your appointment can help minimize bruising, support even results, and keep your smooth, refreshed look settling in exactly as expected.

WHY IT MATTERS

Why Aftercare Matters for Your Results

Neurotoxins work by relaxing the muscles beneath the skin, and how you care for the treated area in the hours and days after your appointment can influence how evenly it settles. Following aftercare guidance gives you the best shot at a smooth, natural-looking outcome with minimal bruising.
