Neurotoxin injections temporarily relax muscles in targeted areas.
Toxin treatment areas for neuromodulator injections use a toxin to temporarily stop muscle movement. First, these injections relax muscles that cause facial wrinkles. Then, they can also treat medical issues like neck spasms, excessive sweating, TMJ, scrotum tightness, calf slimming, migraines, and more.
Botulinum toxin type A is mostly used to treat facial wrinkles like frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet. However, providers can also use it to treat other cosmetic and medical concerns related to muscle and nerve activity.
Here are some top toxin treatment areas beyond the face:
•Chemical brow lift
•Hyperhidrosis (sweating: underarms, hands, feet, scalp)
•Neck (signs of aging)
•Trapezius muscles (TrapTox)
•Jaw (for clenching and TMJ)
•Scrotox™ (scrotum)
•NasalTox® (nose slimming or flare control)
•Tennis elbow
•Parotid gland
•Bell’s palsy support
•Digastric muscle
•Submandibular area
•Plantar fasciitis
•Calves (for slimming)
•MicroTox® (fine-line smoothing)
•DAO (corner of mouth lift)
•Migraine relief
•Lip flip/Gummy smile
•Chin dimpling
In short, neurotoxin treatment is a flexible option for both aesthetic improvements and medical relief.
When you visit a medical provider for neurotoxin treatment—such as Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau, or Daxxify—you’ll start with a consultation. During this visit, you’ll discuss your goals and expected results.
Next, the procedure usually takes 15–30 minutes, depending on how many injections you need and the area being treated.
The results vary based on the product used and your metabolism.
• Botox, Xeomin, and Jeuveau typically last 3–4 months
• Dysport may last 4–5 months
• Daxxify can last 3–6 months
Here are other common treatment areas for neurotoxins:
•Chemical brow lift: Helps reduce heavy eyelids
•Hyperhidrosis: Reduces sweating in underarms, hands, feet, or scalp
•Neck: Softens neck bands and signs of aging
•TrapTox: Relieves tension in the trapezius muscles
•Jaw/TMJ: Slims the jaw and eases clenching
•Scrotox™: Reduces sweat and wrinkles in the scrotum
•NasalTox®: Relaxes nose muscles or reduces oil production
•Tennis elbow: Eases pain by relaxing overused muscles
•Parotid gland: Reduces saliva production
•Bell’s palsy: Balances facial movement
•Digastric gland: Helps improve bite alignment
•Submandibular area: Reduces size and saliva
•Plantar fasciitis: Eases heel pain by relaxing tight muscles
•Calves: Slims and reshapes bulky calves
•MicroTox®: Improves skin texture and reduces pore size
•DAO: Lifts corners of the mouth
•Migraine relief: Relaxes muscles that trigger migraines
•Lip flip / Gummy smile: Minimizes gum exposure while smiling
•Chin: Smooths chin dimpling
Keep in mind, while many of these treatments address medical concerns, most are not covered by insurance—except for hyperhidrosis and migraine-related Botox.
Finally, follow all post-treatment instructions from your provider to get the best results and avoid side effects. For lasting benefits, regular maintenance treatments may be needed.
