What Are Neurotoxins?
Neurotoxins like Botox®, Dysport®, and Daxxify® have revolutionized aesthetic medicine since their introduction decades ago, initially used to treat medical conditions like muscle spasms. Today, they are a cornerstone of facial rejuvenation, working by temporarily relaxing targeted muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles, such as crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead creases. The result is a smoother, refreshed appearance that looks natural, never frozen. Ideal for individuals seeking a minimally invasive way to soften expression lines, neurotoxins are a go-to treatment for those who want to enhance their confidence with minimal downtime and a quick, virtually effortless procedure.
Dynamic lines and wrinkles can affect patients of any age due to differences in genetics, environmental exposures, and unique facial expression. Over time, dynamic lines can become static. Static wrinkles are lines and creases visible while the face is at rest. Some younger patients in their 20s and 30s use neurotoxins as a preventative treatment to keep static lines at bay. Patients with established, static lines and wrinkles will still benefit from neurotoxin treatments to smooth and soften their appearance.
While the primary benefit of neurotoxins like Botox®, Dysport®, Jeuveau®, Xeomin®, and Daxxify® is the long-lasting reduction of facial wrinkles and lines for a smoother, younger-looking appearance, they also offers other advantages, including:
- Non-surgical rejuvenation
- Quick, convenient treatment
- Minimal discomfort
- Pain reduction solutions
- Fast results
- No downtime
- Long-lasting results
Most patients will see the smoothing effects of Botox® and Dysport® in 5 to 7, and 3 to 5 days, respectively. Fast-acting Daxxify® may reveal its smoothing effects in 1 to 3 days. Typically all neurotoxins will have full smoothing effects within 14 days of treatment. Without prohibiting movement in untreated areas, our expertly placed neurotoxins can create a smooth, natural-looking facial appearance.
Botox®, Dysport®, Jeuveau®, Xeomin®, and Daxxify® can reduce the appearance of:
- Glabellar lines—frown lines, or the 11s
- Eye area—crow’s feet
- Forehead lines
- Neck bands
- Lip area
While most patients report minimal discomfort during their quick neurotoxin treatments, we also offer other pain reduction solutions, such as an effective topical numbing ointment or Pro-Nox, to reduce your discomfort throughout the treatment. Pro-Nox is a patient-controlled pain management system that delivers nitrous oxide and oxygen to alleviate pain and anxiety with very few side effects. Its effects wear off quickly, allowing you to drive yourself after your appointment.
At BEYOND Collective, we are proud to offer Daxxify® in Nashville to visibly reduce the signs of aging without invasive procedures or surgery. As Daxxify® is one of the latest innovations in neurotoxins, it’s a unique botulinum toxin formula that uses a novel peptide as a stabilizer rather than human or animal byproducts. This patented peptide delivery system also creates a “glow” with smooth, glass-like skin and visible reduction in pore size and appearance.
While Daxxify® delivers similar effects to neurotoxins like Botox®, Dysport®, Jeuveau®, or Xeomin®, its appeal is in its long-lasting results. The results of most neuromodulators last 3 to 4 months; however, Daxxify® can deliver results that last an average of 6 months. Some patients experienced results lasting for 9 months. With longer-lasting results, you will likely need fewer treatments to maintain your rejuvenated, youthful appearance.
Although injectable neurotoxins contain botulinum toxin type A and work by the same mechanism to temporarily reduce minor facial lines and wrinkles, there are substantial differences between types of injectable treatments, and the doses cannot be interchanged. Neurotoxins vary in formulas and purity of the botulinum toxin type A.
One of the biggest differences is that conventional botulinum toxin treatments, including Botox®, Dysport®, Xeomin®, and Jeuveau®, typically last only 3 to 4 months, requiring 3 to 4 treatments per year. With Daxxify®, the patented peptide delivery system enhances the average duration of effect– 6 months on average, with some patients achieving results that lasted 9 months. Having more time with fewer lines means you will likely need fewer treatments to maintain your results.
Non-Surgical Facial Rejuvenation
At BEYOND Collective, we use neurotoxins, along with dermal fillers and other non-surgical options, to deliver facial rejuvenation benefits, such as:
- Quick and Convenient Appointments: Most treatments take 30 minutes or less.
- Fast Results: Daxxify® results typically develop in 1 to 3 days and may last longer than other neurotoxins. Other facial rejuvenation treatments, such as fillers, create an instant effect to restore the skin’s appearance.
- Minimal Discomfort and Downtime: With minimal downtime and mild side effects that gradually subside in a few days, such as swelling or bruising, allowing you to quickly resume your normal routine.
- Customized Treatments: Our aesthetic experts tailor treatment plans to address your unique concerns and goals.

Am I an Ideal Candidate for Nashville Neuromodulators?
Ideal candidates for Nashville neurotoxin treatments are those who are concerned about dynamic and static wrinkles around the forehead and eyes and want to refresh their appearance.
Ideal neurotoxin candidates in Nashville should:
- Be at a healthy, stable body weight
- Be in good overall health, living a healthy lifestyle

- Have no history of neuromuscular diseases
- Not smoke, or be willing to quit all nicotine at least 1 week before and after treatment

Preparing for Your Neurotoxin Treatment
Before your neurotoxin consultation and treatment, it’s essential to be in good overall health. Here’s some information to help you prepare.
● Stay well-hydrated before and after your procedure.
● Stop taking medications, supplements, or vitamins that increase bleeding or bruising risks for at least a week before and after your filler treatment. For example, avoid fish oil, garlic, ginseng, vitamin E, and ibuprofen or other anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs).
● For 24 to 48 hours, avoid consuming alcohol or caffeine as they can cause additional bleeding.
● If you smoke, vape, or use nicotine products, you should quit. Smoking is detrimental to your overall health and aesthetic results, so Dr. MaDan requires that patients stop smoking at least a week before and after your treatment. Nicotine use can greatly impact the longevity of your neurotoxin results.

Post-Injectable Neurotoxin Care
Following your Nashville neurotoxin treatment, you may resume most normal daily activities with no downtime. Some patients will notice slight bruising and swelling around the injection sites for the first 24 to 48 hours. Icing the area may help alleviate discomfort. It’s important to avoid touching the treatment area for 6 to 12 hours as this may impact your results.
Other activities to avoid include:
- Strenuous exercises or other activities for 24 to 48 hours
- Facial massage like gua sha or lymphatic manipulation
- Excess pressure with hats/headbands or lying face down
- Lying down for at least 4 hours
- Wearing makeup for 24 hours
- Exposure to sun or heat for 24 hours
- Alcohol consumption for 24 to 48 hours
The longevity of your neurotoxin treatment depends on several factors, including the treatment location, dose, and your body’s metabolic response.

Nashville Neurotoxin FAQs
Following your neurotoxin treatment, it’s important to expect tiny injection bumps that will dissipate within 15 to 30 minutes post-treatment. Do not reapply makeup after your treatment. We recommend staying upright and avoiding exercise or other strenuous activities for 4 hours after treatment. Depending on your occupation, returning to work post-treatment is allowed. It is acceptable to wash your face that night; avoid excess rubbing/scrubbing, gua sha, facial rollers, or massage for 48 hours. Do not get a massage or facial for 48 hours post-treatment to minimize the risk of product migration.
In general, anyone who is not pregnant or breastfeeding may be a candidate for neurotoxin treatments. Anyone with a known allergy to the neurotoxin or its components should avoid treatment. An ideal neurotoxin candidate has some dynamic lines/wrinkles with facial movement, few static lines/wrinkles, and good skin health. Younger patients may be seeking neurotoxin treatments as a form of preventative care to minimize developing lines. Dosing and treatment plans are individually customized to your needs and goals.
To minimize the risk of bruising, it is recommended to avoid NSAIDs (ibuprofen, Advil, Aleve), aspirins, excess fish oil supplementation, and alcohol before your treatment. Pre-treating with oral arnica may also be beneficial. There is no guarantee that these measures will prevent bruising. Post-treatment, topical arnica may be applied. Continuing oral Arnica supplements may be beneficial for a few days after your treatment.
If bruising does occur, it is typically very small and easily concealed. Sometimes, IPL (intense pulse light) treatment can rapidly improve small bruises.
Botox®, Dysport®, Xeomin®, Daxxify®, and Jeuveau® are different brand names of cosmetic injectable botulinum toxin. The neurotoxins have minor differences between toxin concentration, reconstitution recommendations, and dosing. Daxxify® has a proprietary peptide-transport mechanism, which may increase the duration of effect for some patients.
Areas most commonly treated with neurotoxins are the forehead, eyebrows (“11’s”, worried, concerned, angry brows), and crow’s feet. Other treatment areas include bunny lines, chin dimpling, frown lines, upper lip/lip flip, jawline, and neck.
Neurotoxin results are not permanent and typically last 3 to 4 months. If your neurotoxin does not last the full 3 to 4 months, your dose should be adjusted accordingly. Repetitive underdosing or undertreating areas with neurotoxin, or administering a neurotoxin “touch up,” is an inefficient use of time and not recommended. Current research is being performed on the development of “resistance” to neurotoxins.
Yes. You should be able to move your face after a neurotoxin treatment. With a thorough facial assessment and consultation before your treatment, Dr. MaDan will recommend an appropriate dose and target treatment areas to achieve your goals. The onset of the neurotoxin effect varies between the different brands. Typically, the neurotoxin should be in full effect 2 weeks post-treatment. If necessary, an enhancement for balancing can be administered at that time. Dr. MaDan will always welcome your feedback and can refine the plan (dose, placement, etc.) for your next treatment.
