Neuromodulators (Botox®, Dysport®, Daxxify®)
Botox was the first neuromodulator to the market in the US and because of that it has become the household name. Dysport is a similar product and we often compare the two products to Coke and Pepsi - two different brands of a similar product. Both Botox and Dysport have an average longevity of 3-4 months.
Daxxify or "Daxxi" for short, is the newest neuromodulator on the market and the only long-lasting one, with an average longevity of 6 months!
Neuromodulators work by blocking nerve signals to muscles that cause them to contract, thereby temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause some of the most common wrinkles and signs of aging.
I like to call these products my "secret sauce" truly consider them the number one tool in my anti-aging toolbox!

Lip Flip & Gummy Smile Treatments
Lip Flip
A lip flip is a subtle enhancement using a small amount of neuromodulator to gently relax the muscle around the upper lip, allowing it to softly “flip” outward for a naturally fuller look. This treatment is ideal for patients seeking a soft enhancement, improved lip definition, or a reduction in gum show. Results typically last 6-8 weeks.

Daxxify (“Daxxy”) Lip Flip
For a longer-lasting or slightly more dramatic effect, we offer Daxxify lip flips. Daxxify works similarly to a traditional lip flip but has a longer duration and a slightly more noticeable effect as it kicks in, giving a refined, enhanced lip and improved gum coverage that lasts months longer than standard neuromodulators.
Daxxify Lip Flip $100
Gummy Smile Treatment
Both traditional and Daxxify neuromodulators can also be used to treat a gummy smile. By relaxing the muscles that elevate the upper lip, we reduce gum show when smiling, creating a balanced, natural appearance. Daxxify options provide longer-lasting results with a slightly more pronounced lift for patients seeking extended wear.
Gummy Smile Treatment $100
Daxxify Gummy Smile Treatment $130

Your provider will assess your face and recommend the best areas for treatment.
How do I prep for my appointment?
Avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements (aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, vitamin E) for 48 hours prior to treatment to reduce bruising. Stay hydrated and come with a clean face. Avoid alcohol the day before your appointment.
Does it hurt?
Most clients describe a very mild pinch or slight discomfort during injections. Our providers work quickly and gently to ensure a comfortable experience. Ice can be applied beforehand to further minimize any sensation.
How long does it take to see results?
Results usually begin to appear within 3–5 days, with full effects visible at 2 weeks. Your provider will schedule a follow-up to ensure your results are optimal.
How long do results last?
Neuromodulator results generally last 3–4 months, though this can vary depending on the individual, the area treated, and how your muscles respond. With consistent treatments, many clients experience longer-lasting results over time.
Will I look frozen or unnatural?
No! When administered by a skilled provider, neuromodulators provide a natural, refreshed appearance while still allowing you to express yourself. We customize dosing and placement to maintain a natural look.
What’s the aftercare?
-
Avoid rubbing or massaging the treated area for 24 hours.
-
Avoid strenuous exercise and excessive heat (like saunas) for the first day.
-
Stay upright for 3–4 hours after treatment.
-
Results will gradually appear over the next few days.
Are there side effects?
Minor side effects can include redness, swelling, or tiny bruises at the injection site, which usually resolve within a few days. Rarely, temporary drooping can occur - your provider will discuss all potential risks before treatment.
How often should I get treatments?
Most clients schedule neuromodulator treatments every 3–4 months to maintain results. Over time, some people may need less frequent treatments as muscle activity decreases.
