  • Avoid any type of facial, microderm abrasion, or massage for 14 days after treatment.

When Will I Notice Results?

Everyone patient is a little different. Some notice results within 1-3 days, some take a little longer. It can take 14 days for full effect to take place. During that time you might not notice results, you might notice uneven results... be sure to give yourself a full 2 weeks for your tox to kick in.

Your tox treatment should last 3-4 month depending on how fast you naturally metabolize it. Some patients last longer, some shorter. The more often you receive treatment the better it will work, and possibly allow you to use less units since you are staying on top of it. 

Be sure to talk to your injector too. Some people love to be "frozen" and some like to still have "a little movement"... our injectors can help figure out the perfect amount for you!

What Is The Downtime?

There is no downtime. You may little red bump at injection site immediately afterwards but you can resume normal activities.

We advice all patients to remain upright for at least 4 hours following treatment.

Avoid strenuous activities for 24 hours following your treatment.

Do not get any other treatment {including a facial} for 2 weeks post treatment. Your tox needs time to settle in to place.

If you bruise easily, ask us about Alastin Post Injection Serum.

See Post Treatment under the Resources tab for complete aftercare instructions.

Who Is An Ideal Candidate?

This service is for patients who would like to correct dynamic wrinkles. Dynamic wrinkles are the ones you have when your face is in motion. 

Raise your eyebrows up, Scowl down like your mad, Squint your eyes.... those are some of the wrinkles that are dynamic and can be treated.

Ideal candidates for TOX injectables are 18 years of age or older, in good physical health, are not pregnant or nursing.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

You will notice results after the first treatment! However, the effects of TOX are usually cumulative. The longer you get it the better the results will be. With consistent use over time, TOX can even help soften the appearance of static wrinkles.

Do TOX Treatments Hurt?

Most people would agree TOX treatments are not painful. There is a slight "pinch" at the injection sites, but doesn't last long.

Bruising is a possible side effect anytime you are inserting a needle into the skin. See Pre Treatment instructions under the Resources Tab for tips and tricks to help alleviate potential bruising.

If you have anxiety about receiving a TOX treatment ask us about adding ProNox to your appointment.
