Many have relied on regular injections of BOTOX in Nashville to look younger for years longer than nature intended. While BOTOX is the most well-known neuromodulator, over time, new products have come on the market, and at Bella Vi, we use them all, including BOTOX, Xeomin, Jeuveau, Daxxify, and Dysport. While each product is slightly different, they all are formulated with a similar active ingredient that halts muscle motion in overactive facial muscles.

Is it time for BOTOX? Will it work for me?

BOTOX is a neuromodulator type containing a purified protein, botulinum toxin. When injected into specific muscle groups, BOTOX stops the nerve signals to the facial muscles that are constantly contracting. These contractions cause dynamic wrinkles or creases:

Squinting
Concentrating
Frowning
Raising your eyebrows

If you’re noticing the following, it may be time for BOTOX:

Lines on your forehead and between your eyebrows
Crow's feet
Visible neck bands
Lip line

Whether you are a first-time client or have trusted your BOTOX injections for years, at Bella Vi, we have taken these injectables to the highest level of precision. Many of our clients are young and trust BOTOX injections to stay looking young and fresh, free from wrinkles, far longer than natural aging allows.

Xeomin

Xeomin is considered a “pure” neuromodulator as it does not contain the additional proteins found in BOTOX and some of the others. If you have seen the results of BOTOX starting to fade, you may achieve better results with Xeomin, as the reduced results may be a reaction to the proteins rather than the active ingredient.

Dysport

Dysport spreads more easily; many find it superior for forehead lines and creases as it diffuses into the tissues more quickly. Some clients feel it creates a more natural look and enjoy the smooth effect achieved in fewer days.

Jeuveau

Jeuveau is the first neuromodulator strictly for the aesthetic market, whereas BOTOX treats various conditions. It is the same particle size as BOTOX, is known for efficiency, and achieves a similar result. If you are considering trying a new product, you may be pleased with Jeuveau, which works fast to smooth away wrinkles and lines.

Daxxify

Daxxify is the latest addition to the neuromodulator market and has the advantage of lasting longer than similar products. Many clients love this new product as they only require retreatment every six months rather than three to four months.

What are the benefits of treatments with BOTOX or another neuromodulator?

Smooth, unlined skin is a sign of youth, but you can expect lines and wrinkles to appear with time. When these lines and creases result from constant facial muscle motions, slowing the muscle motions allows the overlying skin to relax and smooth.

Some of the many benefits of BOTOX in Nashville include the following:

An unlined brow
Creases between the eyebrows fade and disappear
Lifts a drooping brow
Crow's feet smooth away
Visible neck bands relax and become less noticeable
The treatment takes only minutes
Super safe, well-tested, and FDA approved
With a precision treatment, the results appear entirely natural

Who is a good candidate for BOTOX or another neuromodulator?

Anyone tired of seeing a lined, droopy brow in the mirror is likely a good candidate for these custom injections at Bella Vi. The injections are also becoming popular with younger people who want to stay youthful longer, as the lines and wrinkles do not form due to facial muscle motions such as raising the brows.

What is the treatment experience?

The treatment is not particularly painful and takes only about 20 minutes. The areas to be treated will be cleansed and marked, and the product will be injected with a very fine needle.

Once complete, you can return to your regular day with no restrictions. The only sensation you will feel is the pinch of the needle, which is reasonably easy to experience, as the needle used by your injection expert at Bella Vi is very fine.

Why choose Bella Vi for your BOTOX or other injectables?

At Bella Vi, your treatment will be performed by a talented, expert injector, who understands the product, how it works, and how to achieve a result that looks very natural. We are obsessed with beauty, and our state-of-the-art medspa was established to deliver the best results possible in an environment of luxury and personalized care.

How much does BOTOX cost?

The cost of BOTOX, Jeuveau, Daxxify, Xeomin, or Dysport will be determined by the quantity of the product needed for the individual client. Meet with us to evaluate your skin quality and speak with you, and we can provide you with a custom quote for this age-defying treatment.

What is the recovery time?

You can expect little to no recovery time after your BOTOX in Nashville, but you will have a few rules to follow:

You should not lie down or touch the injection sites for four hours
Wait for one entire day (24 hours) before engaging in any vigorous physical activities, such as exercise, running, or sports
Avoid any excessive heat, such as a sauna, hot tub, sunbathing, or extreme cold for 24 hours

Other than that, you have no recovery issues to worry about. You could see some redness or swelling at the injection sites, which fades rapidly.
