IMPROVE SKIN TONE, TEXTURE & ELASTICITY

DMC Skin Clinic introduced SkinTox in 2015 to treat common skin problems such as oiliness, redness, acne-breakouts, rosacea, sensitive skin, as well as multiple fine wrinkles on large areas of the face. SkinTox, also known as dermotoxin, meso Botox, or skin Botox, makes unconventional use of neuromodulators (such as BOTOX® Cosmetic/Dysport®/Xeomin®) to improve skin quality and texture beyond the typical injection for wrinkle improvement and muscle size reduction. At DMC Skin Clinic, a highly experienced injector performs the procedure to ensure appropriate injection depths and amounts per each area of injection, so that the treatment benefits can be maximized without the concerns of stiffness typically associated with intramuscular botulinum toxin injections. SkinTox addresses the concerns of excessive oiliness, constantly recurring active acne, enlarged pores, redness and sensitivity from rosacea, and dryness from seborrheic dermatitis. At DMC Skin Clinic, our injection services are grounded firmly on in-depth anatomical knowledge and extensive clinical experience. We carefully select appropriate injection depth, location, delivery method, and dose.

WHAT IS SKINTOX?

SkinTox is an injection procedure to target multiple, common chronic facial skin issues using precise micro-injections of dilute botulinum toxin Type A neuromodulators into the skin. SkinTox is a suitable treatment option for skins of all ages and types, thanks to its minimal downtime and risks, as well as its ability to target multiple concerns at once – whether it is oily, acne-prone, sensitive, and flushed skin, or fine lines and dull skin tone/texture.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • How many treatment sessions do I need?
    Most patients see visible improvement in the skin tone and texture, pore size, and fine wrinkles in 1-3 weeks following the first session. Additional sessions at 3 month intervals may be required to maintain results, the exact number of which varies depending on the intended goal of the treatment plan.
  • What is the treatment interval?
    Although the recommended interval varies depending on the condition(s) that the treatment is intended to treat as well as each patient’s skin condition, on average, the ideal interval between each treatment is 3 months.
  • Is SkinTox painful?
    Topical anesthetic cream application is offered to minimize discomfort during treatment, making the process nearly painless.
  • Is there any downtime following SkinTox?
    Typically there is no significant downtime with SkinTox with the use of cosmetic concealer, which may be applied 2 hours following the injection. The injection sites will appear slightly raised and white for 1-2 hours. Minor pinpoint bruising in some injection sites may also occur, which normally resolves within 5-7 days. Regular facial care routine may be resumed immediately.
