Botox Injections
Neuromodulator injections, including popular brands like Botox, Dysport, Jeuveau, and Letybo, are becoming increasingly sought after for their remarkable ability to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, providing a smoother, more youthful complexion. In addition to smoothing and improving the appearance of the skin, these treatments can significantly improve quality of life by alleviating symptoms associated with hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), chronic migraines, and bruxism (teeth grinding) or temporomandibular joint dysfunction.
At Little Laser Clinic in Long Island City, NY, we specialize in these minimally invasive neuromodulator treatments, offering personalized care tailored to meet the unique needs of our clients. Here’s what you need to know about these innovative treatments and how they can rejuvenate your skin.

Neuromodulators are injectable treatments that use botulinum toxin type A to temporarily relax facial muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles— lines caused by repetitive facial movements like frowning, squinting, or raising your eyebrows. At Little Laser Clinic, we offer four options: Botox, the gold standard with decades of proven results; Dysport, known for its quick onset and excellent diffusion; Jeuveau, a modern formulation optimized for natural results; and Letybo, a globally popular option now available in the U.S.
Our treatments are tailored to address each patient’s unique anatomy and aesthetic goals. Whether you’re looking to soften deep-set frown lines or prevent early signs of aging, we offer a fully personalized approach to wrinkle relaxation.
Botox is arguably the most well-known brand in the realm of anti-aging treatments. Approved by the FDA over two decades ago, Botox has a long track record of safety and effectiveness.
It works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles, which prevents them from contracting and forming wrinkles. The result is a smoother, more refreshed appearance that can last anywhere from three to six months.
At Little Laser Clinic, our experienced practitioners ensure that each Botox treatment is carefully administered to achieve natural-looking results, avoiding an overdone appearance.
Dysport is similar to Botox but is often praised for its ability to spread a bit more upon injection, making it an excellent choice for larger areas that need treatment, such as extensive forehead wrinkles. It also tends to work slightly faster than Botox, with patients sometimes seeing improvements within a couple of days post-treatment.
Dysport’s diffusion properties can be particularly beneficial for clients seeking a subtle lift and a natural expression post-treatment. Our clinicians at Little Laser Clinic are adept at utilizing Dysport’s unique properties to tailor treatments that suit the specific dynamics of each client’s facial anatomy.
Jeuveau is a newer addition to the botulinum toxin lineup and is specifically designed for aesthetic use. Sometimes referred to as “Newtox,” Jeuveau has been clinically proven to combat frown lines without being frozen.
It is manufactured using a modern method called Hi-Pure technology, which ensures a high level of purity. Jeuveau offers a similar effect as Botox and is becoming a popular choice for patients looking for the latest in natural, anti-aging technology.
At Little Laser Clinic, we offer Jeuveau as a cutting-edge option for clients who are interested in trying the newest products on the market straight from South Korea.
Letybo is the newest neuromodulator to receive FDA approval in the United States, though it has been widely used internationally for years, earning a strong reputation for safety and consistency. Originating from South Korea, Letybo is known for its smooth integration into the skin and precise muscle targeting—making it an excellent choice for softening fine lines without compromising natural facial movement. It offers a refined, subtle finish that appeals especially to clients seeking a soft-touch aesthetic.
At Little Laser Clinic, we’re proud to include Letybo in our neuromodulator lineup, offering our clients another expertly formulated option for smooth, refreshed results tailored to their unique features.
After a detailed consultation, Christine Chen, PA-C, will select the best product and dosage for your unique needs. Using refined syringe tips, she administers the neuromodulator through a series of small, strategically placed injections. Whether treating frown lines and crow’s feet, forehead lines, or platysmal bands in adults, the goal is natural improvement—not changing who you are. We also specialize in treatments to alleviate functional concerns like excessive sweating, migraines, and TMJ disorders.
The entire injection process takes 15–30 minutes. No anesthesia is required, though several techniques to minimize pain are used. You’ll be given post-procedure guidance to minimize any side effects and support optimal results.
Christine Chen’s affiliation with professional bodies such as the Society of Dermatology Physician Assistants, New York State Dermatology Nurse Practitioner and Physician Assistant Society, and her continuous education in the field, keep Little Laser Clinic at the forefront of technological and procedural advancements. Her deep-rooted belief in providing care that respects and enhances the natural beauty of each client ensures that all treatments meet the highest standards of safety and effectiveness.
Safety is paramount at Little Laser Clinic. All our neuromodulator injections are administered by certified professionals who are trained in the latest injection techniques. We maintain a sterile environment and follow strict protocols to ensure the safety and comfort of our clients. Additionally, we take the time to educate our clients about what to expect during and after their treatment, including any potential side effects and care instructions to maximize their results.

Most patients experience zero downtime. Following your injections, you may notice slight swelling or redness at the injection site, which typically subsides within a few hours. You’ll be asked to avoid lying flat, rubbing the area, or engaging in strenuous exercise for 4–6 hours post-treatment. These steps help ensure that the botulinum toxin settles properly within the treatment area for optimal effectiveness.
Makeup can be applied gently, and normal activities can usually resume the same day. Aftercare instructions will be customized depending on your exact treatment areas.
Results typically start appearing within 3–7 days, with the full effect visible by 2 weeks. The look is subtle, refreshed, and undeniably smoother, especially across forehead lines, crow’s feet, and moderate to severe frown zones. These improvements usually last 3 to 4 months, depending on your muscle activity and individual metabolism.
Over time, consistent treatments can help reduce the development of deeper frown lines and crow’s feet, essentially slowing the visible aging process. Our approach focuses on balanced application to keep your look natural and expressive.

Not at all. We aim for a natural look. Neuromodulators can look fake if not done with finesse. Some people prefer a more “frozen” look, while others want more natural movement. We can adjust the dose, placement, and brand to achieve the natural appearance you desire, so people might just think you look well-rested.
No, you can take breaks from neuromodulators, and your appearance will return to normal after a few months. Although there is evidence of longer-term reduction of wrinkles, neuromodulators are effective only for a short period. Interestingly, the masseters react differently and can have a longer-lasting, semi-permanent effect.
Some people choose to space their treatments out to once every 6 months, but most prefer to maintain their results every 3-4 months. The duration of action may vary with different brands, with some lasting shorter or longer than others.
The cost depends on several factors, including the location of the area, the strength of the muscles, and the desired results. Pricing is best determined through an in-person consultation, as each person’s anatomy is unique. We are happy to give ranges, but we cannot be sure until we can do an in-person evaluation.
We also recommend a full-face assessment, as treatments like Botox or other neuromodulators look better when multiple muscle groups are addressed, as muscles work like a coordinated symphony! However, there are instances where we can treat a single area, such as the masseters, crow’s feet, or address asymmetry.
We price per unit to ensure you receive the exact value for your treatment. Flat fees per area or for multiple areas can sometimes result in higher costs compared to per-unit pricing. This approach ensures you only pay for what you need.
Informing us of your past experiences is best so we can dose and place the neuromodulator to effectively prevent a heavy forehead. Some people with anatomy such as hooding of the eyelids can be more susceptible to that side effect, and placement and dosing should be accordingly carefully placed.
The “Spock eyebrow” refers to overly arched eyebrows. We can dose and place the neuromodulator carefully to prevent that action, and it can also be easily corrected at a 2-week follow-up appointment. It is important you seek a provider experienced with doing Botox and other neuromodulators, as these can be easily prevented and treated. Fortunately, both of these side effects are temporary.
Yes. Starting Botox Cosmetic or other neuromodulator treatments in your mid-to-late 20s or early 30s can help prevent forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet from becoming deeply etched into the skin later in life.
