What Are Neurotoxin Injections?

Neurotoxin injections temporarily relax the facial and jaw muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles and expression lines. By calming specific muscles, the skin above them appears smoother, without losing natural movement or expression. Results typically begin in 3 to 7 days, with full results at 14 days, lasting 3 to 4 months on average.

At TIA Revitalize in Toledo, Tia Hopkins, APRN-CNP offers Xeomin and Jeuveau, two of the most trusted neurotoxins available. Unlike Botox, Xeomin contains no accessory proteins, which may reduce the risk of developing resistance over time and makes it a preferred choice for patients who have had Botox before.

Common treatment areas include: forehead lines, frown lines (11s), brow lift, lip flip, gummy smile, chin dimpling, neck bands, and masseter (jaw clenching and teeth grinding).

How Tia Approaches Neurotoxin Treatments at TIA Revitalize

Tia Hopkins, APRN-CNP brings 15+ years of clinical experience across ICU, urgent care, and holistic wellness to every treatment at TIA Revitalize. Her approach to neurotoxin injections is anatomy-first: every treatment plan is customized to the individual patient's facial structure, muscle movement, and aesthetic goals, not a standard unit count applied to everyone.

At TIA Revitalize, Tia offers Xeomin and Jeuveau. Xeomin is a "naked" neurotoxin, meaning it contains no accessory proteins. This makes it a clinically thoughtful option for patients who have had Botox for several years and want to reduce the chance of developing a resistance response over time. Tia discusses the options at your consultation and recommends based on your history and goals.

All neurotoxin treatments are performed by Tia directly. Patients in Toledo consistently report natural-looking results; refreshed and rested, not frozen.

Masseter Neurotoxin for Jaw Slimming and TMJ Relief in Toledo

Masseter neurotoxin is one of the most in-demand treatments at TIA Revitalize. The masseter is the large jaw muscle responsible for chewing — and in many patients it becomes overdeveloped from teeth grinding (bruxism), jaw clenching, or simply genetics. Neurotoxin injected into the masseter temporarily relaxes the muscle, producing two benefits: a slimmer, more defined jawline and significant relief from jaw tension, headaches, and TMJ discomfort.

Masseter treatment is quick (typically 10 to 15 minutes), requires no downtime, and results develop gradually over 4 to 6 weeks as the muscle begins to relax and slim. Most patients return every 4 to 6 months. Over multiple treatment cycles, some patients find the masseter remains naturally smaller, requiring less product over time.

Tia assesses each patient's jaw anatomy before recommending a unit count. Dosing for masseter is higher than facial areas and requires clinical precision — one of the reasons having a licensed APRN-CNP perform this treatment matters.

Frequently Asked Questions about Neurotoxin in Toledo

All three are botulinum toxin type A neurotoxins that work the same way: they temporarily relax targeted muscles. The key difference is formulation. Botox and Dysport contain accessory proteins alongside the active toxin. Xeomin does not, which is why it is sometimes called a 'naked' neurotoxin. Some providers prefer Xeomin for patients who have used Botox for many years, as the lack of accessory proteins may reduce the chance of developing a resistance response. Jeuveau is a newer neurotoxin approved specifically for cosmetic use. At TIA Revitalize, Tia discusses the options at your consultation and recommends based on your goals and history.
Yes. Masseter neurotoxin is one of the most effective non-surgical options for reducing jaw tension, teeth grinding (bruxism), and TMJ discomfort. By relaxing the masseter muscle, the treatment reduces the force generated during clenching, which relieves headaches, jaw soreness, and worn teeth over time. As a secondary benefit, it also slims the lower face for a more defined jawline. Results develop over 4 to 6 weeks and last approximately 4 to 6 months.
No. The goal at TIA Revitalize is a natural, refreshed result. Tia uses anatomy-based dosing and customizes unit placement to your facial structure and how your muscles move. You should still be able to make full facial expressions; the treatment simply softens the lines those expressions create.
Most patients describe minimal discomfort, similar to a quick pinch. Neurotoxin injections use a very fine needle. The treatment is quick, and there is no need for numbing cream for most patients, though Tia can accommodate patients who prefer it.
Most patients return every 3 to 4 months for facial treatments and every 4 to 6 months for masseter. With consistent treatment over time, some patients find that the targeted muscles naturally become less active and require less product per session.
Yes, when administered by a trained and licensed medical provider. At TIA Revitalize, all neurotoxin treatments are performed by Tia Hopkins, APRN-CNP, who has 15+ years of clinical experience. Using an APRN-CNP means your provider has the medical training to assess facial anatomy, manage dosing precisely, and handle any rare adverse reactions appropriately.
