What are Tox Treatments?
TOX is a neuromodulator. The effect of the neuromodulator allows the muscles to relax and skin to smooth, eliminating fine lines and dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated muscle movement.
These treatments are simple, non-surgical procedures that smooth the deep, persistent lines and wrinkles that develop over time. When injected into the skin these products will relax the muscles and smoothen out the overlying wrinkles. The most common areas of treatment are in the upper face. These include the horizontal lines seen on the upper forehead when one raises the brows, the vertical lines seen between the brows when one frowns (frown lines), and the crow’s feet seen around the eyes when one smiles.
Other medical uses for tox include hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), TMJ (clenching of the jaw), and migraines.

FAQs
Am I a good candidate for this treatment?
If you suffer from:
- Frown lines between the eyebrows
- Crow’s-feet, the lines that fan out from the corners of the eyes
- Forehead furrows
Then these injections can help block certain chemical signals from your nerves that cause your facial muscles to contract. The injections temporarily relaxes the facial muscles that underlie your skin, and cause these wrinkles.
Will it be painful?
There may be a slight discomfort while the filler is being injected.
How long will my appointment take?
Tox treatments are quick! You can expect to be in and out in about 15 minutes.
How long will the results last and are they permanent?
Tox typically last 3-4 months. It is naturally broken down and metabolized in the body over time. Factors like metabolism, exercise, and even some medications can shorten that time, so many of our clients like to come in for frequent touch-ups every couple of months. We will work with you to get you on a good schedule and maximize your results!
Are there any side effects?
The injections are relatively safe when performed by one of our experienced doctors or nurses. However, as with all forms of treatment, there are some possible side effects to be aware of, including:
- Pain, swelling or bruising
- Headache or flu-like symptoms
- Droopy eyelid or cockeyed eyebrows
- Crooked smile or drooling
- Eye dryness or excessive tearing
In order to reduce the possibility of side-effects occurring, Magnolia Med Spa and Wellness employs qualified, experienced doctors who specialize in injections.
