What It Is:

Neurotoxins are FDA-approved treatments designed to temporarily relax the specific facial muscles that cause fine lines and wrinkles. By gently easing muscle activity, the overlying skin becomes smoother, giving you a refreshed, youthful, and well-rested appearance.

At Commonwealth Dermatology, PLLC, we know that no two faces are exactly alike, which is why we offer a curated selection of premium neurotoxins to best suit your unique needs:

  • Botox® Cosmetic: The tried-and-true “gold standard” of neurotoxins. Botox is highly versatile and has decades of proven, predictable results for smoothing frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead creases.
  • Xeomin®: Often referred to as the “smart tox” or “naked injectable.” Xeomin is uniquely purified to remove unnecessary accessory proteins. This means you get just the active ingredient, lowering the chance of your body building a resistance to the treatment over time.
  • Daxxify®: The newest innovation in wrinkle-smoothing! Daxxify is powered by a novel peptide formula that allows the results to last significantly longer than traditional neurotoxins—often up to 6 months or more. It’s perfect for patients who want to maintain their results with fewer trips to the clinic.

Key Benefits:

Smooths moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead creases.

  • Prevents new wrinkles from forming by minimizing repetitive facial movements.
  • Quick, minimally invasive treatment with zero to minimal downtime.
  • Customizable longevity—choose a standard 3-4 month duration or a longer-lasting option.

Who This Treatment Is Good For:

Neurotoxins are ideal for adults looking to soften “dynamic wrinkles” (lines that appear when you make facial expressions). It is a great option for anyone who wants to look more approachable and refreshed without surgery. It is also incredibly popular as a preventative “prejuvenation” measure for younger patients looking to stop wrinkles before they start.

What to Expect:

The treatment takes only about 10 to 15 minutes. You may experience slight redness or swelling at the injection sites, which typically resolves quickly. Results usually begin to appear within 3 to 7 days, with full effects visible at 14 days. Depending on the product chosen (such as Daxxify vs. Botox/Xeomin), your smooth results will last anywhere from 3 to 6+ months.
