Botox, Dysport & Xeomin in Crestwood & St. Louis, MO: Soften Lines, Keep Your Look
You catch your reflection and spot the crease between your brows that stays put even when your face is at rest. Those forehead lines and crow's feet start telling a story you never meant to share.
Left alone, years of frowning and squinting press dynamic expression lines into creases that settle in for good. The longer they go untreated, the harder they get to soften later, and a tired look starts to greet you in every photo and on every video call.
We offer Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin at Modern Med in Crestwood and St. Louis, relaxing the muscles behind those lines so your skin smooths out while you still look fully like you.
What Botox, Dysport & Xeomin Can Do for You
These are prescription neurotoxins injected to calm the muscles that drive fine lines and wrinkles, and they treat far more than just the face. Each one is a slightly different formula, so we match the product and dose to your features and goals at your visit.
Botox and Xeomin tend to give a focused, precise hold, while Dysport often spreads a touch more for broader areas like the forehead. We talk through which one suits the spot you want treated, since the right match makes the result look smoother and more even.
Results show up in about two weeks and last roughly three to four months, slowly wearing off after the first month. A higher dose often buys you longer wear, which is something we plan around your routine and budget.
What you can expect is targeted muscle relaxation that softens existing lines and slows the formation of new ones. Because we treat the cause rather than chase the symptom, regular visits keep your skin looking smooth instead of starting from scratch each time.
Here is what clients come to us for:
-
Forehead lines, frown lines (the "11s"), and crow's feet
-
Smoker's lines, chin dimpling, and a subtle lip flip
-
Pore tox for smoother, tighter-looking skin
-
Masseter treatment for TMJ tension and a slimmer jaw
-
Underarm, hand, and foot injections to control sweating
-
Neck bands, traps, temples, nose, and calves
Every plan is built around your face, not a template, so the result reads as rested rather than done. Pricing stays simple and honest at $13 per unit, and it drops to $11.70 per unit through our savings program, which also takes 10 percent off everything else. A lip flip runs $150.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Tox Treatments?
If repeated expressions have started etching lines into your skin, or you simply want to stop them before they set, you are likely a strong fit. The newest research points to the mid-20s as a smart age to begin, since easing muscle activity early beats correcting deep creases down the road.
Good candidates usually:
-
Are 21 or older and in good general health
-
Want a soft, natural result rather than a frozen face
-
Are not pregnant or breastfeeding
-
Have no active infection being treated with antibiotics
Men make excellent candidates, too, and they walk out still looking like themselves. If you get cold sores and want lip work, your primary doctor can prescribe an antiviral to take before and after so injections do not trigger a flare.
Two visits a year keep most people consistently smooth, though some clients book a single round before a wedding, reunion, or photoshoot. Since tox needs about two weeks to fully show, we suggest starting well ahead of any big day so your look is exactly where you want it.
Your Visit, Step by Step
-
The Sit Down: We review your medical history, talk through your goals, and check for anything that would rule out treatment. You leave this part with a clear plan and an honest estimate before a single injection happens.
-
The Muscle Map: We watch how your face actually moves, then mark precise injection points built around your features so the outcome stays balanced and true to you.
-
The Quick Pinch: Treatment is a series of tiny pokes with a fine 29 to 31-gauge needle, which most clients describe as a small pinch. Numbing cream is on hand if you want extra comfort.
-
The Aftercare Brief: We walk you through the simple rules. Skip lying down, touching the area, makeup, workouts, and tanning for four hours, then wear sunscreen daily to protect your investment.
-
The Reveal: Your results settle over about two weeks as the muscles relax. We are glad to do a touch-up after that window if any spot needs a little more.
