Natural-looking Botox and neurotoxin treatment

Neurotoxins temporarily reduce targeted muscle activity responsible for certain expression lines. When thoughtfully administered, treatment can soften areas that appear tense, tired or etched while allowing the face to remain expressive.

At Regen Aesthetics Institute, we do not begin with a standard unit count or a one-size-fits-all injection map. We assess facial movement, muscle strength, symmetry, proportions, treatment history and the result you want before designing your plan.

Depending on clinical goals, treatment may use BOTOX® Cosmetic, Dysport® or Jeuveau®. Product selection is part of the clinical plan, not a decision you need to make alone.

The goal is not to erase movement. It is to make movement work more harmoniously with your features.

How Neurotoxins Work

How do cosmetic neurotoxin injections work?

Dynamic lines develop where repeated muscle movement folds the skin over time. Neurotoxins work at the connection between the nerve and the targeted muscle, temporarily reducing the signal that produces contraction. As activity decreases, the overlying skin can appear smoother and less tense.

Each nerve signal crosses the junction and the muscle contracts, folding the skin above it into expression lines.

  • Movement is evaluated first

    Your provider observes how the face moves at rest and through expression before selecting treatment points.

  • Dosing is individualized

    Muscle strength, anatomy, symmetry and the desired degree of movement guide the treatment plan.

  • Results develop progressively

    The effect builds gradually after treatment rather than appearing all at once.

Treatment Possibilities

Botox treatment areas for facial lines and more

Not every area should be treated in every patient. Your provider will determine which applications appropriately support your anatomy and goals.

Upper Face

Frown Lines

Softens the vertical “11” lines that can create a tense or concerned appearance between the brows.

Forehead Lines

Reduces the appearance of horizontal expression lines while considering brow position and natural movement.

Crow’s Feet

Softens lines at the outer corners of the eyes while preserving the character of your smile.

Brow Position

Strategic placement may create a subtle, refreshed appearance around the brows when anatomically appropriate.

Mid & Lower Face

Bunny Lines

Addresses dynamic lines that appear along the sides of the nose with expression.

Lip Flip

Relaxes selected muscle fibers above the lip to create subtle upper-lip eversion without adding filler volume.

Gummy Smile

May reduce excessive upper-lip elevation during smiling in carefully selected patients.

Chin Dimpling

Softens excessive mentalis activity associated with a pebbled or dimpled chin appearance.

Downturned Mouth

Targets the depressor muscles that may contribute to downward pull at the corners of the mouth.

Jaw & Neck

Masseters

May soften lower-face width caused by prominent masseter muscles in selected patients.

May be off-label

Neck & Platysmal Bands

May reduce the appearance of prominent neck bands and downward muscular pull in appropriate candidates.

Certain botulinum toxin products have approved uses for severe underarm sweating; other products or sites may involve off-label use.

Transparent Pricing

Transparent Botox and neurotoxin pricing

We want you focused on the result you are trying to achieve, not mentally calculating whether one more unit will change the bill. Following your assessment, we present a clear treatment recommendation and the complete price before you proceed.

This allows your provider to design treatment around your facial movement, anatomy and agreed goals rather than forcing the plan into a predetermined unit allowance.

What outcome-based pricing means for you

  • A complete price before treatment begins
  • No per-unit calculations at checkout
  • No surprise product charges
  • A treatment plan designed around your intended result
What to Expect

What to expect at your neurotoxin appointment

Your appointment begins with a review of your goals, relevant health history and previous neurotoxin experience. Your provider will observe your face at rest and through movement, discuss the recommended treatment and confirm pricing before proceeding.

Treatment is administered with a fine needle at carefully selected points. Temporary redness, tenderness, swelling or bruising can occur. Most patients return to routine daily activities shortly afterward, although individualized post-care instructions should be followed.

Before Your Appointment

How to prepare for Botox or neurotoxin injections

Complete your health history accurately and tell your provider about medications, supplements, allergies, neuromuscular conditions, pregnancy or breastfeeding, previous reactions and recent aesthetic procedures. Do not discontinue prescribed medication unless the prescribing clinician instructs you to do so.

Arrive with clean skin

When possible, avoid makeup over the intended treatment areas.

Plan around major events

Because temporary bruising or swelling can occur, allow adequate time before photographs or special occasions.

Share your treatment history

Tell us which products and areas were previously treated and when treatment occurred.

Follow your personal instructions

Your provider will give you pre-care and post-care guidance based on your treatment plan.

Frequently Asked

Botox and neurotoxin treatment FAQs

Do you offer Botox near Hanover, Maryland?

Yes. Regen Aesthetics Institute, the aesthetics division of the Institute for Human Optimization, offers consultations for BOTOX® Cosmetic and other cosmetic neurotoxin options in Hanover, MD. Your provider will review your goals and determine whether treatment is appropriate.

What is the difference between Botox, Dysport and Jeuveau?

All three are prescription botulinum toxin type A products, but their formulations, approved uses and dosing are not interchangeable. Your provider will recommend the option that best aligns with the treatment area, intended outcome and your previous response.

Will neurotoxins make me look frozen?

That is not our objective. Your plan is designed around your muscle activity, anatomy and desired degree of movement. We prioritize a rested, balanced appearance while preserving expression whenever clinically appropriate.

When will I see the result?

Initial changes often begin within several days. The effect continues to develop, and the full result is generally assessed approximately 10 to 14 days after treatment. Individual response varies.

How long will the result last?

Many patients experience results for approximately three to four months. Duration varies according to the product, treatment area, muscle activity, individual metabolism and treatment history.

Is there downtime?

Most patients return to routine activities shortly after treatment. Temporary redness, tenderness, swelling, headache or bruising may occur. Your provider will review appropriate post-treatment precautions with you.

How much will my treatment cost?

Following your assessment, you will receive the complete treatment price before deciding whether to proceed. Pricing is based on the agreed outcome, not a patient-selected unit count.

Can treatment be performed during my consultation?

Same-day treatment may be available when sufficient time is reserved, treatment is appropriate and all clinical requirements are satisfied. Treatment is not guaranteed before evaluation.
