How Neurotoxins (Tox) Work

Aesthetic neurotoxins, like wrinkle relaxers, are injectable treatments designed to target specific facial muscles that cause wrinkles and fine lines. Our expert injectors place the tox at precise strategic points to help relax these muscles, smoothing your skin while preserving your natural expressions—so you never have to worry about looking “frozen.”

Neurotoxins can also offer therapeutic relief for conditions like TMJ disorders, muscle tension, and excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). No matter your age or stage, we craft personalized treatment plans that align with your skin’s integrity, your overall wellness, and deliver results that feel effortlessly timeless.

At our luxury medical spa in Kailua-Kona, we specialize in aesthetic and therapeutic botox treatments designed to help you look radiant and feel your best.

What to Expect

Consultation

Your experience begins with a one-on-one consultation with our expert injector. We take the time to understand your goals, assess your facial structure, and create a tailored treatment plan.

Pre-Care

To prepare for optimal results, we recommend avoiding alcohol, blood-thinning medications, and supplements such as fish oil or vitamin E for 24–48 hours prior. This helps minimize the risk of bruising and ensures a smoother treatment experience.

Treatment

Your tox appointment is quick and minimally invasive, typically lasting 15–30 minutes. Our injector will map and cleanse the treatment areas, then place a series of small injections targeting specific facial muscles that cause expression lines—using precise, strategic placement to preserve natural movement and expression.

Results

You may begin to notice subtle softening of fine lines and wrinkles within 3–5 days, with full results visible around 10–14 days post-treatment. The effects typically last 3 to 4 months, after which muscle movement gradually returns and follow-up treatments are recommended to maintain results.

Post-Care

To ensure optimal results, avoid lying down, touching or massaging the treated areas, and strenuous exercise for at least 4–6 hours after treatment.

Refrain from alcohol, heat exposure (like saunas), and facial treatments for 24 hours, and follow any personalized instructions provided by your injector. Minor swelling, redness, or pinpoint bruising may occur and usually resolves quickly.

Available Tox

Xeomin® is a purified neurotoxin preferred for long-term or frequent users becuase it reduces the risk of developing resistance over time. Its onset and duration are similar to Botox®, with results typically lasting 3 to 4 months.

Dysport® is known for its faster onset and slightly wider diffusion, making it ideal for treating larger areas like the forehead or masseter muscles. Many patients notice visible softening of lines within 2–3 days, with results typically lasting 3 to 4 months.

Frequently asked questions

What is Botox, and how does it work?

Botox is a purified neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes targeted muscles by blocking nerve signals. It’s most commonly used to soften dynamic wrinkles—such as frown lines or crow’s feet—by preventing repetitive muscle contractions. When administered with precision, Botox creates a smoother, more youthful appearance while maintaining natural facial movement.

What are the benefits of botox?

Botox is highly effective for both aesthetic and therapeutic concerns. Popular cosmetic treatment areas include frown lines (glabellar lines), forehead wrinkles, crow’s feet, masseter muscles (for jaw slimming), and lip flips. It is also FDA-approved or widely used for therapeutic concerns like TMJ, chronic migraines, and hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), offering patients both visual and functional relief.

Is Botox safe?

Yes, Botox is FDA-approved and safe when administered by qualified medical professionals. At Sol Medical Hawaii, all treatments are performed by licensed healthcare providers with advanced training in aesthetic and therapeutic injectables. Patient comfort, safety, and personalized results are our top priorities.

How long does it take to see results, and how long do they last?

You’ll begin to notice Botox effects within 3 to 5 days, with full results typically visible by 10 to 14 days post-treatment. Results generally last 3 to 4 months, though some patients experience extended benefits with regular maintenance treatments.

Does Botox hurt, and what can I expect during the appointment?

Most patients describe tox injections as a series of tiny pinches. We have multiple distraction techniques to make your experience less painful. Numbing is also offered. Treatments are quick—usually completed in 15 to 30 minutes—and require little to no downtime. You may resume normal activities the same day, with minor redness or swelling resolving quickly.

How often should I get Botox treatments?

To maintain smooth, natural-looking results, we recommend Botox treatments every 3 to 4 months. Over time, many patients find that consistent treatment may prolong the duration of effects or reduce the amount needed.

Are there any side effects or risks?

Aesthetic neurotoxins are well-tolerated by most individuals. Mild side effects can include temporary redness, swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection site. Rare complications, such as eyelid drooping or asymmetry, are minimized when treatment is performed by experienced injectors like those at Sol Medical Hawaii.

Can Botox be used for medical conditions?

Yes. In addition to its cosmetic benefits, Botox offers therapeutic relief for several conditions. It is commonly used to reduce jaw tension from TMJ, relieve chronic migraines, and treat hyperhidrosis by blocking overactive sweat glands. Our providers tailor each treatment to your medical and lifestyle needs.

Who is not a good candidate for Botox?

Botox is not recommended for individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have certain neurological or muscular conditions, or have known allergies to botulinum toxin. A full medical consultation is required to determine if Botox is right for you.

Can I develop resistance to Botox over time?

While rare, some individuals may develop antibodies to Botox with frequent use, potentially reducing its effectiveness. In such cases, alternative neuromodulators like Dysport or Xeomin may be recommended. At Sol Medical Hawaii, we monitor your response to ensure optimal results with every visit.
