Botox has been the gold standard in anti-wrinkle injections for decades. But it’s not the only option anymore, and if you’ve been a client of ours for a while, we think it’s worth an honest conversation about what’s changed.
Most people still use the word “Botox” to describe all anti-wrinkle treatments, but there are now several different botulinum toxin products available — each with subtle differences in formulation, onset, diffusion and how they perform for different treatment goals.
For some clients, that may mean a softer finish. For others, a faster onset, more precision, or simply a product that better suits how their muscles respond over time.
The best treatment today isn’t always about using the same product you started with years ago. It’s about understanding the options available now and tailoring treatment to you.
