Baby Botox

  • •Softens Early Fine Lines
  • •Keeps Your Face Expressive
  • •Light, Precise Dosing
  • •Minimal Downtime

Baby Botox, also called micro Botox, uses very small, carefully placed amounts of Botox to relax the muscle pressing a fine line into your skin. The dose is light enough that your brows still lift and your forehead still moves when you talk. It takes full effect in about two weeks.

01

What Is Baby Botox?

Baby Botox, also called micro Botox, is a lighter dose of Botox. Fewer units are placed in smaller amounts across the part of a muscle doing the most creasing. The injection reduces the nerve signal reaching that portion of muscle, so it contracts with less force and the skin above it folds less sharply each day. The rest of the muscle carries on as normal, which is why the brow still lifts and the eyes still crease when you laugh. Movement starts to ease within a few days, the treatment takes full effect at about two weeks, and a lighter dose generally fades sooner than a full one.

02

Baby Botox at Beauty and Fly

Light-dose injections at the Bronxville and Bridgehampton offices are placed by Catherine Curtin, MSN, FNP-C. She examines where the skin creases, how strongly each muscle pulls and where the brow already sits, then chooses the placement from that. The first dose is deliberately small and reviewed once it has taken full effect, with units added at that visit if a line still folds more than you want.

03

Is Baby Botox Right for You?

  • Baby Botox suits adults with faint early lines that show on movement and fade when the face is still, and patients who have had a full dose elsewhere and want more of their movement back.

  • It addresses first fine lines across the forehead, frown lines between the brows and lines around the eyes, along with strong facial movement that is marking the skin earlier than expected.

  • Catherine does not treat patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding, and she reviews your full medical history at the consultation before any Botox is given.

04

What Are the Benefits of Baby Botox?

Early fine lines soften while the forehead and the skin around the eyes keep their normal range of movement, so the face reads smoother and expression stays natural. A line that folds less sharply each day takes longer to set into a fixed crease, which is why patients start light and early. The injections take a few minutes and most people carry on with the rest of their day. Botox is $15.50 per unit, and a lighter dose usually means fewer units than a full treatment. Consultations are complimentary and there is no deposit.

Baby Botox Treatment Areas

Where Light Dosing Does the Most Good

First Fine Lines

First Fine Lines

A faint line shows across your forehead or at the outer corner of your eye in certain light, then disappears when your face is still. That line has not set yet. Those are the easiest ones to keep from setting.

Treatments+

Small amounts, spaced evenly, into the part of the muscle doing the creasing. The fold loses force over the first two weeks and the line stops being pressed into the skin every time you speak.

Causes+

Skin folds along the same crease line every day for years. Collagen thins underneath it. Eventually the crease stays when the movement stops.

Right After Treatment

Same day · back to your afternoon

Small pinches at each point, then a few raised marks that flatten on their own within hours. You can drive yourself home and carry on with whatever the day held. Nothing about your movement or your lines has changed yet.

Tap to flip

Softening Phase

Movement eases · skin follows

Somewhere in the first week you stop catching the line. Movement eases ahead of the skin, so the early change looks smaller than you expected. A lighter dose takes longer to show. The treatment reaches full effect at about two weeks.

Peak Result and Beyond

Full effect · the long game

At full effect the line is softer and your expressions are unchanged. Treated regularly over years, those areas tend to hold fewer deep lines than they otherwise would, which is why lighter dosing is started early.

Nearly 20 Years of Injectable Experience

Injector Experience

Nearly 20 Years of Injectable Experience

Baby Botox uses small amounts of Botox, and a small amount only works where the muscle beneath the line is pulling hardest. Catherine Curtin, MSN, FNP-C, examines how your forehead and brow move before choosing where each dose goes.

Each visit is charted: the units placed, the points they went into, and how much the muscle had eased by the follow-up. Those notes set the starting dose at the next appointment, so light dosing stays consistent from one treatment to the next.

A small amount of Botox spreads through the muscle after it is placed. With a dose this light, that spread decides the result more than the entry point does.

Catherine reads where your brow already sits and which side of your face pulls harder, then chooses points from that. Two people with the same forehead line rarely get the same placement. With amounts this small, where the dose sits determines how it looks.

Treatment Process

Baby Botox Treatment Process

Five stages, from the first consultation to the visits that keep it going. Here is what each one involves.

Step 01 · Your consult

Your Consultation and Mapping

Light dosing only works if Catherine establishes two things first: how faint the line still is when your face is completely at rest, and how much range has to survive for your face to feel like yours. Your medical history comes next, gone through line by line, and then she tells you what a small amount will and will not change.

  • Movement and muscle strength read first
  • Preventative dosing explained clearly
  • Every question answered before you agree to a dose

Light-Dose Botox, Bronxville and Bridgehampton

A Small Dose First, More Later If You Want It

Baby Botox starts with a small first dose. The result is reviewed at about two weeks, and units are added then if you want more softening.

Treating Before the Line Sets

Anatomy focused

A line that appears only on movement is driven by muscle contraction. Once it is visible at rest, it has creased the skin and needs more units. Treating earlier keeps the dose light.

Tap to flip

Conservative, Gentle Dosing

Soft, expressive

Baby Botox treats early lines with an amount light enough that your face keeps every expression it walked in with. Nothing changes on the drive home. Movement eases over the first days and the line follows it.

Ongoing Review Together

Included

At the follow-up Catherine checks whether any treated point needs more units, and how long the softening held before it faded. Both the dose and the interval for your next appointment are set from that.

A full-face assessment comes before any single treatment.

FAQ

Baby Botox Questions,
Answered by Catherine

What patients ask most about Baby Botox and preventative Botox, answered before you book.

Baby Botox is Botox placed in smaller amounts across more points, so an early line softens while the muscle keeps most of its movement. Against a standard treatment of the same area, it uses fewer units, shows a little later, and fades sooner. Catherine confirms the areas and the unit count at your complimentary consultation.

Fewer than a standard treatment of the same area, but there is no fixed number. It depends on which areas are treated, how strong those muscles are, and how much movement you want to keep. Catherine shows you the proposed dose on your own face before injecting anything.

It builds over about two weeks, holds, then fades gradually as muscle activity returns. Lighter dosing generally fades sooner than a full dose. At your follow-up Catherine sets a return point based on your own muscle, and the prediction sharpens each visit.

That is a fair thing to ask. Most people have seen a forehead that no longer moves and decided they did not want it. A light dose sits in only a fraction of the muscle, so the rest of it carries on as normal. Your brow still moves and your eyes still crease when you laugh.

Movement begins to ease within a few days, and the line softens as the skin stops being folded as hard. Full effect is at about two weeks, and a lighter dose often shows a little later than a full one. Injection marks flatten within hours.

Yes. Preventative Botox and Baby Botox describe the same idea: lighter doses started earlier, so a line is reinforced less often and takes longer to set. It suits patients who can see where their lines are heading and want to slow that down.

Yes. If the final result is softer than you wanted, Catherine adds units at your follow-up and builds from there. That is the advantage of starting light. Going the other way, getting movement back once a full dose has been placed, means waiting it out.

No. Younger patients use it for prevention, but Catherine also uses light dosing for patients who have had a full dose elsewhere and want their movement back. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, she does not treat, and she reviews your full history at the consultation.

Botox is $15.50 per unit, with no deposit taken. Lighter dosing usually means fewer units than a full treatment, though your muscle strength decides that. At your complimentary consultation Catherine gives you a unit range and a total. Members pay less per unit; the figures are on the Beauty Bank page.

Most of the same areas as standard Botox: forehead, frown lines between the brows, and around the eyes, all with smaller amounts. Which ones are treated depends on where your skin creases and which expressions matter most to you. Catherine walks you through the specific plan before starting.
