Botox, Dysport and Xeomin are muscle relaxants or neuromodulators that are injected to reduce the appearance of dynamic lines and facial wrinkles. When injected, these neurotoxins prevent the underlying muscles from contracting, resulting in a smoother and younger-looking complexion. The effects of this treatment can last for approximately 3-4 months.
Prices based on area of treatment. Each area requires between 18-24 units of botox (Equivalent to 54-72 units of Dysport).
Understanding Your Options for Smoother Skin
If you're considering wrinkle-relaxing treatments in Orange County, you might be wondering which product is right for you: Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin.

Botox: The Original Wrinkle Relaxer
Best for: Forehead lines, frown lines, crow's feet
Onset: 3–5 days
Duration: 3–4 months
Ideal for: Patients looking for proven, reliable results
Botox is the most recognized neurotoxin and has the longest track record in aesthetics. It's a favorite among our Orange County patients for treating forehead lines and crow’s feet with subtle, controlled softening.
Dysport: The Fast-Acting Option
Best for: Larger treatment areas (e.g., forehead)
Onset: 1–3 days
Duration: 3–4 months
Ideal for: Patients who want quicker results or softer spread
Dysport tends to diffuse more broadly than Botox, making it a popular choice for those who want smoothness over a wider area. Patients in Newport Beach and Irvine often request Dysport for its rapid onset.
Xeomin: The "Clean" Neurotoxin
Best for: Frown lines (glabellar lines)
Onset: 3–4 days
Duration: 3–4 months
Ideal for: Patients looking to avoid additives or develop resistance
Xeomin is free of accessory proteins, which can make it a good option for those who’ve used Botox long-term and may be worried about reduced efficacy.
