CHAPTER SEVENTY-FIVE: How Often Should You Get Your Neurotoxin Done?
If you’ve ever fallen in love with your smooth, refreshed results after a neurotoxin treatment (like Jeuveau or Xeomin), you’ve probably wondered — how long will this last, & when should I book again?
The short answer: most people benefit from a touch-up every 3 to 4 months. But the exact timing can vary based on your unique facial anatomy, muscle strength, & treatment goals.
Why Timing Matters
Neurotoxins work by temporarily relaxing specific muscles that cause lines & wrinkles. As your body naturally metabolizes the product, those muscles gradually regain movement, & fine lines may begin to reappear. Staying consistent with your appointments helps maintain a smoother look & can even train your muscles to stay more relaxed over time — meaning you might need less product or fewer treatments later on.
Factors That Affect Longevity
A few key things can influence how long your results last:
Dosage & placement — The amount used and where it’s injected can impact duration.
Muscle strength — Stronger muscles (like the forehead or jawline) may metabolize the neurotoxin faster.
Metabolism & lifestyle — Higher activity levels, frequent exercise, or faster metabolisms can shorten the effect.
Consistency — Regular treatments help results last longer and keep the skin looking smoother between visits.
Signs It’s Time to Rebook
If you notice your expressions feel “stronger,” makeup starts settling into lines again, or your brows don’t have the same lifted feel — it’s probably time for a touch-up. Booking before full movement returns keeps your results seamless rather than starting over each time.
The Bottom Line
For most clients, scheduling every 3–4 months is ideal. However, your injector will personalize your plan based on how your body responds & what look you’re going for — whether that’s ultra-smooth or a little natural movement.
If it’s been a few months since your last appointment, consider this your friendly reminder: a quick refresh might be all you need to keep that confident, rested glow.
