• Located in Stamford, CT, serving clients across Fairfield County.

Advanced injectables are specialized injection techniques that go beyond standard treatment areas. They’re designed to refine smaller facial muscles and high-detail zones—often with subtle dosing and precise placement—to create natural-looking improvements without changing your identity.At North + Nova Med Spa, advanced injectables are approached with a safety-first, evidence-based mindset, and performed exclusively by a physician.

Advanced injectables are often used to improve:

• Facial balance and symmetry
• “Overactive” muscle patterns that create lines or pulling
• Subtle lifting, smoothing, or softening in high-detail areas
• A more relaxed, refreshed look (without appearing “done”)

Below are common advanced neurotoxin options. Your exact plan depends on your anatomy, goals, and medical history.

• Brow lift — subtle elevation and opening of the eye area
• “Jelly roll” (under-eye) — softening the roll beneath the lower lid (case-dependent)
• Bunny lines — smoothing lines along the sides of the nose
• Perioral lines — softening fine lines around the mouth with conservative dosing
• Gummy smile — reducing gum show by relaxing specific upper lip elevators
• DAO (downturned corners of the mouth) — improving a downturned/resting frown appearance
• Pebble chin (mentalis) — smoothing chin dimpling and tightening texture
• Platysmal bands (neck) — softening vertical neck bands and improving neck contour

If you’re not sure what your concern is “called,” that’s totally normal—your consultation is where we map your goals to the right approach.

1. Consultation & assessment
   We review your goals, facial movement patterns, and medical history, then discuss options and expected outcomes.
2. Treatment plan
   You’ll receive a transparent plan tailored to your anatomy—often focused on subtle, natural-looking refinement.
3. Injection appointment
   Treatment is typically quick. Technique and placement matter most in advanced areas, so we prioritize precision over speed.
4. Aftercare & follow-up
   You’ll receive clear aftercare guidance and the option for follow-up to assess results and fine-tune if appropriate.

Duration varies by area, product, and individual metabolism. Many neurotoxin results last several months, with advanced areas sometimes requiring more individualized timing. We’ll walk you through what’s typical for your specific plan.

Advanced injectables involve smaller muscles and more nuanced anatomy. Choosing an experienced medical provider matters because precision impacts both results and safety.Common side effects can include temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising at injection sites. During your consultation, we’ll review candidacy, risks, and what to watch for after treatment.

North + Nova is led by Daniel Bal, MD, and every injectable treatment is performed by a board-certified physician. We focus on:

• Natural-looking results
• Evidence-based technique
• Transparent, personalized planning
• A boutique experience that prioritizes safety, education, and long-term relationships

Do advanced injectables look natural?
Yes—when planned conservatively and tailored to your facial movement, advanced treatments are designed for subtle refinement, not dramatic change.

Is a Botox brow lift the same as surgery?
No. A neurotoxin “brow lift” is a non-surgical technique that may subtly elevate the brow by relaxing specific muscles. Results vary by anatomy.

Can neurotoxin help a gummy smile?
In many cases, yes. A gummy smile may be improved by relaxing specific upper lip elevator muscles. Your consultation determines whether you’re a good candidate.

What is DAO treatment?
DAO refers to the depressor anguli oris muscle, which can pull the corners of the mouth downward. Treating it may soften a downturned appearance.

What is “pebble chin” and can it be treated?
“Pebble chin” often refers to chin dimpling caused by mentalis muscle activity. Neurotoxin can help smooth the texture in appropriate candidates.

Do you treat platysmal bands?
Yes, platysmal band treatment can soften vertical neck bands in appropriate candidates. We’ll review goals and anatomy to determine the best approach.

Where are you located?
