Dr. Segura's signature toxin injection technique will leave you feeling confident in your skin! Neurotoxins are one of the most effective and recognized non-surgical wrinkle treatments available today. The beauty of this technique is that it repairs wrinkles caused by facial muscle movements, such as forehead lines and crow’s feet around the eyes.
Imagine having a younger, smoother look with fewer wrinkles— a look that matches how you felt in your youth. Toxin injections are often used to treat the common aspects of facial aging.
Wrinkles and fine lines can develop on any part of the face due to muscular activity in those areas, such as smiling, frowning, squinting, or laughing. At Studio R Aesthetics, Dr. Segura uses her signature technique with neurotoxins such as Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin to soften those pesky lines and wrinkles to give you that youthful look you desire. Based on your concerns and needs, we will determine which toxin choice of Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin will work best for you based on the treatment areas needed and other important factors.

Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin are all brands used in neurotoxin injection therapy. They work by reducing muscular activity and weakening the muscles. Neurotoxin injections help paralyze muscles and relax them and have been used for years to improve wrinkled or aged skin appearance. This treatment takes only a few minutes and has visible results after a few weeks, with effects lasting 3-4 months. At our office in Charlottesville Neurotoxins may also serve as a preventative therapy, preventing the need for more invasive procedures in the future like plastic surgery! Dr. Segura's Signature technique is sure to leave you looking and feeling your best.
Neuromodulators, also known as neurotoxins, are medications that block the underlying muscle activity that causes signs of aging, such as wrinkles and fine lines, as well as skin creases and folds. They don’t prevent you from showing expression, but they do stop the lines caused by muscular movement from forming temporarily.
The treatment areas are injected with neurotoxins using tiny needles. Neurotoxins work by blocking the muscle contraction in and around “problem areas.” With neurotoxins Charlottesville patients have an excellent way to smooth and reduce wrinkles, but they’re also beneficial in slowing the development of deeper lines as we grow older.
During the treatment, which takes about 10-20 minutes, Dr. Segura will inject into the muscles of the areas that are being treated. There is no need for general anesthesia; instead, your specialist may use a topical anesthetic or a cold compress to relieve any discomfort.
Treatment may cause redness and mild to moderate swelling. It will gradually disappear, but we recommend avoiding any heavy lifting or vigorous activity for 24 hours after your treatment.
It generally takes effect between 3 and 5 days after treatment to see results, although it may take up to a full 14 days for the full effects to be seen. Starting toxin treatments early is an effective way to avoid more invasive treatments like plastic surgery.
The effects of neuromodulator injections last anywhere from three to six months.

"I went to see Dr. Segura, and she is absolutely amazing! I haven’t had filler or Botox in a couple of years, and this was my first time seeing Dr. Segura and coming to Studio R. She listened to my concerns, and her attention to detail and knowledge is everything you can ask for and more. I got lip filler, as well as some Botox, and it is by far the best experience I have had getting it done. Highly recommend Dr. Segura and Studio R!"

“Studio R is a wonderful center, filled with welcoming & friendly staff, stylish decor, variety of refreshments (even the toilet seat will make your bum happy, & nice & warm). Dr. Brandy Segura has been my go-to because she is sincere, patient, gentle, makes you feel comfortable, & is very knowledgeable & detailed with Q&As. I stand by her & her practice, values, & customer service. You will feel more like a friend rather than a patient. All the doctors & staff will make you feel right at home.”

“I cannot speak more highly about ALL of the staff at Studio R Aesthetics. I have received several services from Dr. Segura as well as Michelle and have never had less than 10/10 results. I'm so impressed that Charlottesville has this caliber of practice available to its customers. In addition, I highly recommend signing up for one of their membership plans. The perks that come with the membership are well worth the investment.”

“Wonderful and knowledgable staff and doctors. Very reasonably priced and affordable. The staff has been just as amazing making me feel warm and welcome.

–S.R., Charlottesville, VA, weight loss patient.
“I love Studio R!!! Dr. Segura is so knowledgeable, kind, and thoughtful. On my first visit, I was desperate for help with my skin and eager to try everything. Rather than letting me spend ALL my money at once on her services, she slowed me down and recommended starting with the basics - a really excellent skincare routine, which has made a HUGE impact on my skin and truly my overall well-being...”
–S.T., Charlottesville, VA, BBL, and skincare patient.
“Michelle and Studio R are always so professional and kind. I’ve gone in for a lash lift (looks gorg) and dermaplaning and both have been great successes. Excellent snacks in the waiting area too :)”
–A.M., Charlottesville, VA, esthetician services patient.
“Studio R Aesthetics & staff rate 10 stars. Dr. Segura gave me the results I wanted & the entire experience was wonderful. My treatment consisted of Restylane lip filler & Dysport.

–C.B., Charlottesville, VA, injectables patient.
“Best facial I've ever had! Michelle Morris took the time to discuss my skincare routine, problems, and areas where I wanted to see improvement, all before beginning the treatment.
