About This Treatment
Botox, Xeomin, and Daxxify are all FDA-approved prescription injectables that temporarily relax selected muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles.
These wrinkles are created by repeated facial expressions such as frowning, squinting, or raising the brows. All of the paralytic agents are Botulinum Toxin A with slightly unique differences. Together with each patient we choose the agent most appropriate for patients specific needs.
It is commonly used to soften visible lines and help prevent them from becoming more deeply etched over time.
What It Treats
Botox is commonly used for:
- Forehead lines
- Frown lines (between the brows)
- Crow’s feet
- Brow heaviness or flattened brows
- Pebbly chin
- Lip lines in selected cases
- Neck banding in selected cases
- Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis)
It is not the best solution for every aging concern. Lines caused by volume loss or skin laxity may require a different approach.

How It Works
Botox works by temporarily reducing the muscle activity that causes repetitive folding of the skin.
As movement softens:
The goal at Nuvo Med is not a frozen look. The goal is strategic softening with natural movement where appropriate.

Frequently asked questions
How many units of Botox will I need?
This depends on the treatment area, muscle strength, anatomy, and goals. Personalized dosing matters more than generic unit numbers.
Will I look frozen?
Not when properly planned. Our approach emphasizes natural expression and appropriate dosing.
How long does Botox last?
Many patients see results for several months, though timing varies.
Is there downtime?
Most people return to normal activity the same day.
Does Botox cause numbness?
No. Botox affects muscle signaling, not skin sensation.

Yes. Many patients visit Nuvo Med from Tacoma, Bremerton, Silverdale, and surrounding communities for physician-led injectable care.
