Is this safe to receive while pregnant, or breast-feeding?

Because it is not known to enter your system, or bloodstream, it is unlikely it could cross the placenta to reach a developing baby or to enter breast milk. However, because we do not know for sure, we  suggest avoiding using Botox/Dysport or any other neuromodulator during pregnancy and lactation. Here at Eternal Wellness, we will defer treatment to when you are no longer pregnant or breastfeeding.

At what age do I really need Neuromodulators?

There’s really no right or wrong answer! You’re never too old for neurmodulators and the treatment has been FDA approved for people 18 and older. At Eternal Wellness we typically recommend starting treatment in your mid 20’s. Neuromodulators can treat existing and developing fine lines and wrinkles and when administered at a young age, it can help prevent lines from ever developing. Prevention is key!

Do injections hurt?

When will I notice the results?

You will start to notice the effects of your injections within 7-10 days but, a majority of our clients notice the full effects of their treatment after 2 weeks.

However, if you believe you are experiencing an adverse reaction from your injections, please contact the office immediately.

Redness and swelling at the injection site can occur, but are temporary. Bruising is rare, but possible.

What are Neuromodulators?

Neuromodulator injections use a neurotoxin called OnabotulinumtoxinA to temporarily prevent a muscle from moving. This toxin is produced from the microbe that causes botulism, but is completely safe to inject and the results are temporary, lasting 3-4 months on average with proper dosing.
