What is Tox?
Botox, Dysport, Daxxify and Jeuveau block certain chemical signals from nerves that cause muscles to contract. The most common use of these injections is to relax the facial muscles that cause frown lines and other facial wrinkles. These injections are also used to ease symptoms of some health conditions such as muscle spasms, lazy eye, excessive sweating, migraines and bladder problems.
Understanding dosing
What is my dose?
We get this question ALL the time via instagram and text.
This question is best answered in the treatment room. There are many aspects that go into calculating one's dose. Client age, strength, size, movement pattern and surface area of the muscle along with skin elasticity and health. An in person assessment is recommended to ensure you are given the proper recommendation on dose to last the 3-4 month duration.
20u of Botox/Jeuveau OR 50u of Dysport WILL not freeze your whole face. This dose is enough to freeze an area and MAYBE soften a second. 64 units (forehead, crows feet and 11’s) was the FDA dosing by Botox Cosmetic for the 3 common areas. (This a drug - dose = duration). Now everyone's dose may be different based on their goals, and will be discussed prior to treatment.
Once we start pulling away from the dose we are pulling away from the battery life of your tox, it may look good for the first couple weeks - but it will fade quickly. Giving the client the wrong impression on what tox can actually do and the longevity. We are doing a disservice to you and your treatment by spreading 20u across the face. 1. It wont last long. 2. results will be weak, leading to an improper result/outcome.
Why we offer 4 different neurotoxins?
One of the most popular question we get is "what is the difference and what is best?"
The truth is, there isn't one "best" neurotoxin - just one that works best for you.
Just like people respond differently to skincare products or medications. Some clients notice faster onset with one brand, smoother results with another, the way it feels or longer lasting results with a different option. Our clients we see regularly, we have their anatomy down and what they respond best to. It's good to have options in these scenarios.
At Hush, we carry multiple options because each treatment is personalized. Not one-size-fits-all.
