"Preventative Botox" refers to the concept of preventing the creation of wrinkles and deep lines by relaxing the muscles with botulinum toxin injections. Think about it this way: It’s way easier not to crumple the paper than it is to get it perfectly flat after it’s already been crumpled.
The term "Baby Botox" refers to using a smaller dosage of a specific neuromodulator such as Botox, Xeomin, Dysport, etc. during the injection. Many patients prefer this method as it allows for subtle changes to their appearance. Ultimately, your provider will review your treatment goals and administer the right dosage of the Tox to achieve those goals.
Our treatment is referred to as "Tox" rather than "Botox," which is the generic name for neurotoxin treatment, as well as the name of the drug manufactured by Allergan. Like all drugs, there are many brands of "Botox." Allergan's Botox was the first to come to market, but over time there have been many other formulas for neurotoxin. At Pinch, we use Xeomin because it is shelf-stable and the cleanest neurotoxin on the market. This means that you are least likely to build up resistance to the drug, unlike other neurotoxins. Xeomin works to provide the same results as Botox, Dysport, and other neurotoxins.
