ToxedByNick

ToxedByNick is an injectables practice run by Nick Mullins, an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse in Louisville, Kentucky. It focuses on Tox treatments (Botox and Dysport) and dermal fillers. The business describes itself as offering the best cosmetic procedures in town, which is the salon's own claim.

Botox is a neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes the facial muscles behind wrinkles, used to soften fine lines and wrinkles while keeping natural expression. Dysport is offered as an alternative wrinkle reducer. Botox results usually begin within 3 to 5 days, are full at about two weeks, and typically last 3 to 4 months, so the practice suggests booking at least two weeks before a special event. Botox is FDA approved for lines between the eyes, the forehead, and crow's feet; other areas are treated off-label. Little to no downtime is expected, though rubbing the treated area should be avoided for 24 hours.

Dermal fillers are made of hyaluronic acid and are used to restore volume and soften facial lines. Most last about a year, and cheek filler typically lasts 18 to 24 months. Lip filler adds volume, improves symmetry, or defines the lips, typically lasts 6 to 12 months, and often settles from swelling over about two weeks. Many lip fillers contain lidocaine, and a topical numbing cream may be applied during treatment. Lip filler pricing depends on the filler type and amount needed and is personalized before treatment. Fillers are often started with a small amount and reassessed in one to two weeks.

Before booking, clients can take a free phone or Zoom consultation to work out how much treatment is needed, and lip filler consultations are free as well. A Botox visit starts with a conversation about goals, a review of medical history, and an evaluation of facial expressions. A topical numbing cream can be used to reduce discomfort during Botox. Group rates are available for Botox parties, special events, and weddings. Payment plans are offered through Cherry, with an instant decision and no hard credit check.

Treatment plans are built around each client's aesthetic goals, and fillers are often started in small amounts and adjusted after one to two weeks.
