Expert Botox & Dysport Injections in Topeka, KS.

Wrinkle Relaxers with a Purpose

At The Refinery Medical Aesthetics, our neurotoxin services in Topeka offer five powerful options: Botox, Dysport, Daxxify, Jeuveau and Xeomin. Each product has its own benefits and is selected based on your individual goals, lifestyle, and preferences.

These FDA-approved injectables work by targeting the facial muscles responsible for creating dynamic wrinkles. By relaxing these muscles, the skin above them becomes smoother and less creased. The results are subtle and natural-looking, smoothing your appearance without changing the way you express yourself.

All injections at The Refinery are performed by licensed and experienced medical professionals. Our providers have an expert understanding of facial anatomy and aesthetics, ensuring precise placement and safe, beautiful results every time.

Understanding Neurotoxins

What Are Neurotoxins?

Neurotoxins are medical-grade substances that interrupt communication between nerves and muscles. In aesthetics, they are used in small, controlled doses to temporarily relax specific facial muscles that cause wrinkles. These treatments have been used for decades and are supported by extensive clinical research.

The most well-known neurotoxin is botulinum toxin type A. While that may sound intimidating, the cosmetic form is purified and regulated to ensure it is safe and effective for reducing signs of aging.

How Do Neurotoxins Work?

When injected into targeted muscles, neurotoxins block the release of a chemical called acetylcholine. This prevents the muscle from contracting as strongly. As the muscle relaxes, the overlying skin begins to smooth out, reducing the appearance of lines and preventing new ones from forming.

This process does not affect the surrounding muscles, allowing you to maintain your natural facial expressions. The effects typically appear within a few days and last for several months depending on the product used.

Who Are Neurotoxins For?

Neurotoxins are popular among both women and men who want a non-surgical way to look more refreshed and youthful. They are suitable for adults of almost any age who have dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated facial movements such as frowning, squinting, or raising the eyebrows.

They are also used proactively to prevent the formation of deeper lines by relaxing muscles before permanent wrinkles have a chance to set in.

Clients in their twenties may use neurotoxins to preserve smooth skin and prevent early signs of aging. Those in their thirties and forties often use them to treat expression lines that have started to settle. Clients in their fifties and beyond can see a significant softening of deeper creases when paired with other treatments such as fillers or skin rejuvenation.

Our Variety of Neurotoxin Products

BOTOX® (onabotulinumtoxinA)

The Gold Standard in Wrinkle Prevention:
Botox is the most recognized name in cosmetic injectables for a reason. Known for its reliability, versatility, and consistently beautiful results, Botox is an excellent choice for softening expression lines and restoring youthful contours.
What Botox Treats
• Forehead lines
• Crow’s feet around the eyes
• Frown lines between the brows
• Bunny lines on the nose
• Lip flip for fuller-looking lips
• Chin dimpling
• Neck bands
• Jawline slimming for TMJ or masseter tension
How Botox Works
Botox contains a purified form of botulinum toxin type A. When injected into specific muscles, it blocks the signals that cause them to contract. With the muscle relaxed, the overlying skin appears smoother and more even.

Dysport® (abobotulinumtoxinA)

A Softer Touch with Natural Movement
Dysport spreads slightly more than Botox, which makes it ideal for treating larger areas like the forehead. It also tends to deliver faster results, with some patients seeing improvement in as little as two days.
What Dysport Treats
• Glabellar lines (frown lines between the brows)
• Forehead creases
• Crow’s feet
• Masseter reduction
Why Patients Choose Dysport
Patients who want a softer, more natural-looking result with less stiffness often find Dysport to be the perfect fit. Its subtle spread creates smooth transitions between treated and untreated areas.

DAXXIFY® (daxibotulinumtoxinA-Ianm)

The Long-Lasting Innovator
Daxxify is a newer neurotoxin that offers longer-lasting results for up to six months for many patients. It uses a proprietary peptide-powered formula that helps extend the life of the treatment while maintaining a natural look.
What Daxxify Treats
 • Forehead lines
• Glabellar lines
• Crow’s feet
Why Choose Daxxify
 For those looking for fewer appointments and long-term smoothing, Daxxify can be a game changer. With proper maintenance, results may last nearly twice as long as traditional options.

Jeuveau® (prabotulinumtoxinA-xvfs)

Clean and Pure for a Targeted Effect
 Modern Made for Aesthetic Precision Jeuveau is a botulinum toxin developed specifically for cosmetic use. Often called “Newtox,” it offers a contemporary alternative to traditional neurotoxins, designed with aesthetics in mind.
What Jeuveau Treats:
• Frown lines
• Forehead lines
• Crow’s feet
• Glabellar lines
Who Benefits from Jeuveau
Jeuveau is ideal for patients focused solely on aesthetic improvements. It's a great choice for those looking for smooth, natural-looking results from a product dedicated to wrinkle treatment.

What to Expect

Before Your Treatment

  • Avoid blood thinning medications for 2-3 days prior to your appointment.  Blood thinning medications to avoid include ibuprofen, Aleve, and any vitamin or supplement that contains St. John’s Wort, Gingko Biloba, primrose oil, garlic, ginseng, or Vitamin E.
  • If you are on a medically indicated blood thinning medication do not stop taking it and consult with the prescribing provider prior to your appointment for any instructions or recommendations they may have.
  • Do not drink alcoholic beverages on the day of your treatment.
  • Arrive to your appointment with a clean face.  Remove all make up and wash your face with a gentle facial cleanser prior to your appointment
  • If you have a history of facial cold sores there is a risk that the needle punctures could contribute to or exacerbate an eruption of cold sore lesions.  Please start your anti-viral medication 3 days prior to your treatment and notify your treatment provider that you are prone to cold sores.

A fine needle is used for injections, and discomfort is minimal.

Aftercare Instructions

  • Do not lie down for 4 hours following your treatment.
  • Avoid any rubbing, massage, or pressure to the treatment area/s as this may alter the placement of the drug in the tissues and cause it to migrate.
  • You may reapply make up after 6 hours.  Do so gently over the treatment area/s and avoid using a used sponge or beauty blender to prevent bacterial infection.
  • Do not wear a hat or visor for 8 hours post-treatment, if treatment was administered to the forehead.
