Botox Alternatives

Why Consider a Botox Alternative?

Some patients may prefer or benefit from an alternative injectable because of:

• Slightly different onset times (some work faster than Botox)
  
  
• Different spread in larger or smaller treatment areas
  
  
• Personal preference for results or cost
  
  
• Desire to try the latest aesthetic injectables
  
  

All options are safe, effective, and tailored to your treatment goals.
