Neurotoxin

Neurotoxins
UniQ Laser Center in Watertown, Canton, and Needham, MA, offers neurotoxin treatments for skin rejuvenation, such as Botox, Xeomin, Dysport, and Jeuveau. These noninvasive options reduce the appearance of wrinkles, providing a smoother and more youthful complexion.
What Are Neurotoxins?
Neurotoxins are injectable substances used to relax the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles—those formed by facial expressions like smiling or frowning. By temporarily blocking the nerve signals to these muscles, neurotoxins help to soften lines, particularly in areas like the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes.
We offer the following treatments in select locations:
Botox®
The most recognized brand, Botox, effectively treats moderate to severe wrinkles and fine lines.
Xeomin®
Known as a “naked” form of botulinum toxin, it doesn’t contain additives, making it less likely to trigger immune resistance.
Dysport®
This formulation spreads more easily and is often preferred for larger areas like the forehead.
Jeuveau®
The latest neurotoxin, similar to Botox, but marketed specifically for aesthetic use.
What are the Benefits of Neurotoxins?
Each neurotoxin treatment offers several advantages for those seeking non-surgical options to reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
- Minimally invasive: No surgery or significant downtime.
- Quick results: Effects can be seen within a few days.
- Natural-looking appearance: Smooths lines without making the face look “frozen.”
- Customizable: Each treatment is tailored to the patient’s needs and facial structure.
These make them a popular choice for patients looking for a refreshed appearance.
What to Expect During Treatment
Our neurotoxin treatment process at UniQ Laser Center is extremely quick and you can return to work immediately! During the appointment, one of our experienced practitioners will assess your facial anatomy and discuss your goals. Small amounts of the neurotoxin will be injected into targeted areas using a fine needle. The procedure typically takes less than 30 minutes, with minimal discomfort.
Ideal Candidates
Neurotoxins are ideal for individuals looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles without undergoing surgery. Candidates should be in good health, have realistic expectations, and are typically between the ages of 18 and 65. If you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or have certain neurological conditions, neurotoxins may not be suitable for you.
Cost of Neurotoxin Treatments
Injections costs vary depending on the area treated and the specific neurotoxin used. Pricing generally starts at $10–$15 per unit, with typical treatments requiring 20–60 units. For an accurate estimate, schedule a consultation at one of UniQ Laser Center’s convenient locations.
