Neurotoxins: Botox & Dysport
Wrinkle Treatments
What Are Neurotoxin Injections?
The underlying cause of wrinkles, frown lines, crow’s feet, and other signs of aging are the muscles that contract under the skin. The more they flex, the deeper those lines can get. A neurotoxin injection, like Botox or Dysport, works by temporarily blocking the nerve receptors in those muscles, which helps to prevent new lines and wrinkles from forming.
These injections are often known by their brand name, including Botox and Dysport. And while their chemical compounds may differ, the procedure treats the same underlying cause and condition.
How Can Botox or dysport help you?
For the most part, neurotoxin procedures are used to tackle wrinkles and are often used in the face, including:
- Forehead wrinkles
- Wrinkling around the eyes
- Wrinkles around the nose caused by scrunching
- Wrinkles around the mouth
However, neurotoxin injections are not just limited to reducing fine lines. They can also treat excess sweating and compliment fillers, making them one of the more versatile treatments in our wellness repertoire.

Lip Flip
Looking for that fuller lip but worried about the use of lip fillers? Lip flip injections could be the solution for you. Botox is injected above your upper lip during this procedure, relaxing the muscles and allowing the lip to curl upwards. A lip flip gives you improved shape and volume without excess fillers. This can also be an excellent alternative for fuller lips if you’ve had a negative experience with fillers.

Hyperhidrosis Treatments
Excessive sweat is a nightmare, especially here in Miami. We have a solution.
Hyperhidrosis, aka excess sweating, can be caused by faulty nerve signals that force your sweat glands to become overactive. This can lead to excess sweating in the hands, feet, underarms, scalp, and face, affecting nearly 15.3 million people in the United States.
While some people rely on prescription medications and wipes, neurotoxin injections can help you treat excessive sweating. These injections block the nerve receptors in the body and target the areas with excess sweating, interrupting the signals causing overactivity.
Our team can treat hyperhidrosis on your hands, feet, and underarms!

Masseter Botox
Let us help you transform your jawline with Masseter Botox!
From a cosmetic perspective, the introduction of Botox into the masseter muscle can contribute to a more slender lower face, resulting in a refined, oval or V-shaped appearance. By diminishing the muscle’s size, it can help create a smoother and more sculpted jawline. However its benefits don’t end there.
Botox injections in the masseter muscle can also effectively address symptoms associated with teeth grinding (bruxism) and temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD). Botox can mitigate the intensity of clenching and grinding, ultimately offering relief from jaw pain and tension by relaxing the jaw.
$650
Gummy Smile Treatment
A “gummy smile” refers to when a person’s smile shows an excessive amount of their gum tissue. Our gummy smile treatment uses a neurotoxin like Botox to relax the upper lip muscles, reducing the amount of gum that shows when you smile.

What TO EXPECT FROM NEUROTOXIN WRINKLE TREATMENTS
Neurotoxins can treat multiple conditions and are often less impactful than alternative treatments like more potent chemicals or surgeries. At C10, we always work with our patients to find the ideal solution for their cosmetic and wellness journeys.
However, for those opting for neurotoxins, there are a few benefits you can expect to enjoy:
- A Non-Surgical Solution to Lines and Wrinkles: Neurotoxin injections are the way to go for those looking for a minimally invasive alternative to treat wrinkles.
- Quick and Convenient: The process takes 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the number of injections needed, meaning you’ll be in and out of our office on the same day.
- Minimal Downtime: Unlike a cosmetic procedure with a long prep and recovery time, our neurotoxin injections can be administered quickly and won’t cause significant disruptions to your daily routine.
- Customizable: Whether you’re tackling your laugh lines or looking to treat excess underarm sweating, neurotoxin injections offer a customizable solution to a range of beauty and wellness needs.
Your Neurotoxin Questions, Answered
What areas can be treated with neurotoxin injections?
Neurotoxin injections are most commonly used to treat wrinkles on the face. This includes frown lines between the eyebrows, crow’s feet around the eyes, and horizontal lines on the forehead. They can also be used to treat other areas our staff can help with.
How long do the effects of neurotoxin injections last?
The effects of neurotoxin injections typically last between three and six months. As muscle action gradually returns, the lines and wrinkles reappear and must be treated again.
Are neurotoxin injections safe?
Neurotoxin injections are considered safe when administered by a trained and qualified provider. However, as with any medical procedure, there are potential risks and side effects, which we will always discuss with you before starting any procedure.
What is the recovery time after receiving neurotoxin injections?
Neurotoxin injections require minimal recovery time. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure, although some mild side effects, such as redness, swelling, or bruising, may occur.
Are neurotoxin injections painful?
Most patients report minimal discomfort during the procedure, often comparing the sensation to a quick pinprick. Of course, we can always work to help you find the ideal pain management solution, including topical anesthetic, as needed.
Can neurotoxin injections be combined with other treatments?
Yes, neurotoxin injections can often be combined with other cosmetic treatments, such as fillers, for a more comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation. However, let us know your plans so we can ensure it’s the right treatment option.
How soon will I see results after getting neurotoxin injections?
The results of neurotoxin injections are not immediate and usually start to appear within a few days to two weeks after the treatment. Our staff will always be available to help walk you through the recovery process.
