Neurotoxins, fillers, and biostimulators — placed with a clinician’s eye
Injectables are the most-requested treatments at Pura Vida, and the ones patients most often get wrong elsewhere. These guides come from the nurse practitioners who place them every day — how neurotoxins differ from fillers, why conservative dosing keeps expressions natural, and how to read a treatment plan built around your face rather than a brand.
We are brand-agnostic and dose to your anatomy, not a package. The articles here explain the trade-offs so you can walk into a consultation already knowing the right questions to ask.

Frequently Asked Questions
Injectables Questions, Answered
What’s the difference between Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin?
All three are neurotoxins that soften expression lines, but they differ in spread, onset, and formulation. Your provider chooses based on the area treated and how your muscles respond — several of these guides compare them in detail.
How do I avoid an overdone look?
Conservative first-visit dosing with a two-week follow-up. It’s easy to add more; it’s much harder to take filler away. Our providers build results gradually so you continue to look like yourself.
