Botox is a purified form of botulinum toxin type A. When a small, controlled dose is injected into specific facial muscles, it temporarily relaxes the muscle so the overlying skin stops creasing every time you frown, squint, or raise your brows. Over a few weeks, the dynamic lines that were forming with movement begin to soften — and with regular treatment, the skin holds smoother, longer.
At Aesthetics Collective in Murfreesboro, every Botox treatment starts with a one-on-one consultation with one of our nurse injectors. We map your facial movement, talk through the look you want (refreshed but still you), and only then put any product in. Our goal is never frozen — it’s natural, balanced, and aging slower.
Botox in Murfreesboro typically ranges between $11 and $14 per unit, with most patients needing 20 to 60 units depending on which areas are treated. Common treatment areas and their typical unit ranges:
A first-time patient treating forehead, glabella, and crow’s feet typically lands in the $400 – $700 range. We build you a clear, written quote before treatment — no upselling, no surprise add-ons.
Most patients notice results beginning at 3 – 5 days, with full effect at the two-week mark. Results last about three to four months on average. With consistent treatment every 12 – 16 weeks, the underlying muscle softens and many patients can stretch maintenance visits a little further over time.
Botox and Dysport are both botulinum toxin type A injectables, both FDA-approved for cosmetic use. The differences are subtle but real:
If you’ve never had a neurotoxin treatment before, your injector recommends the option that best fits the area, your muscle pattern, and your goals. Many patients keep both in their plan over time.
If this is your first visit to Aesthetics Collective, here’s how it goes:
Botox has been used cosmetically since 2002 and has one of the longest safety records in aesthetics. Most patients have no significant side effects beyond minor pinpoint redness or a small bruise. Less common side effects include a temporary headache, asymmetry, or — in rare cases of poor placement — a heavy brow or lid droop that resolves on its own. The single best way to minimize risk is to choose an experienced, medically supervised injector. Every Botox treatment at Aesthetics Collective is performed by a licensed nurse injector under medical oversight.
We’re a Murfreesboro-based medical spa at 220 Veterans Parkway, just minutes from Stones River Mall and convenient for patients across Smyrna, Franklin, La Vergne, and the greater Nashville area. Our approach is honest and unrushed:
If you’ve been thinking about Botox in Murfreesboro, the first step is simple: a complimentary consultation. We’ll listen, walk through your options, and give you an honest plan — no commitment required. Book your consultation online or call (615) 801-8078.
Most patients describe the sensation as a quick pinch. The needles used are very fine, and we offer ice and topical numbing for added comfort.
Yes — but wait 24 hours. Vigorous exercise immediately after injection can increase circulation and bruising risk.
Not when it’s done well. Our injectors use conservative dosing and natural placement so you still emote normally.
We typically begin treating at 21+ for preventative cases. Younger patients are evaluated on a case-by-case basis with realistic expectations and minimal dosing.
Botox pairs well with filler (treated the same day) and is best done before — not after — energy-based treatments like microneedling. Your provider will sequence treatments for best results.
