Precision Over “Freezing”

You have earned your expressions. But there is a difference between looking happy and looking weathered.

Every time you smile, frown, or squint, the muscles beneath your skin contract, folding the skin above them like a sheet of paper. In your 20s, that paper bounces back. As you age and collagen declines, those folds become permanent creases—known as static wrinkles.

At Hydrate GA, we don’t believe in the “frozen” look. We believe in strategic relaxation.

We specialize in FDA-approved neuromodulators (commonly known as “tox”). By precisely relaxing the specific muscles that cause deep creasing, we allow the skin to flatten and smooth out. You still look like yourself—just rested and confident, whether you are presenting in a boardroom or meeting friends for dinner in Five Points.

Injectable Treatments: Matched to Your Anatomy

One formula does not fit every face. We carry the top three FDA-approved neurotoxins because patients respond differently to each protein structure. We select the product that aligns with your goals.

Botox® Cosmetic (The Clinical Standard)

  • The Profile

    The most extensively studied and widely recognized brand in the world.

  • Best For

    Patients who want the tried-and-true option with a decades-long safety record. It is excellent for treating deep forehead lines, crow’s feet, and the “11s” between the brows.

Xeomin® (The Purified Choice)

  • The Profile

    Often called the “Naked Injectable” because it goes through an extra purification process to remove complex proteins. It contains only the active molecule.

  • Best For

    The conscious consumer or patients with allergies. Because it lacks additives, your body is less likely to develop a tolerance to it over years of use.

Jeuveau® (Precision Aesthetics)

  • The Profile

    The newest neurotoxin on the market, developed exclusively for aesthetic use rather than medical use.

  • Best For

    The modern patient looking for precision. Jeuveau (“Newtox”) is known for its ability to smooth lines while maintaining a soft, natural finish.

Areas We Treat

Our injectors are trained in advanced facial anatomy. We don’t just chase wrinkles; we balance the face to improve light reflection and symmetry.

  • Forehead Lines: The horizontal lines that appear when you raise your eyebrows.
  • Glabellar Lines (The 11s): The vertical frown lines between your eyebrows that can make you appear angry or stressed.
  • Crow’s Feet: The fine lines around the eyes caused by smiling or squinting.
  • Lip Flip: A subtle micro-injection to relax the top lip, allowing it to "flip" slightly outward for a fuller appearance without filler.
  • Masseters (Jaw Slimming): Injections into the jaw muscles to reduce teeth grinding (bruxism) and slim the lower face.

Stack Your Treatments for Better Results

Injectables address the muscle, but they don’t fix the skin. To get the most out of your appointment, we recommend pairing your injections with treatments that improve the canvas itself.

Texture vs. Movement (The Microchanneling Stack)

Neuromodulators stop the movement that causes wrinkles, but they do not erase surface scarring or uneven texture.

The Stack: Combine your injectables with ProCell™ Microchanneling. The injectables keep the skin smooth and still, creating a stable environment for the new collagen generated by microchanneling to lay down flat and even.

The “Glow” Factor (The IV Stack)

You can relax a wrinkle, but dehydrated skin will still look dull and “crepey.”

The Stack: Many of our Athens clients schedule a “Beauty Glow” IV Drip immediately following their Botox appointment. The Glutathione brightens the complexion while systemic hydration plumps the skin cells, making your injectable results look more radiant.

The Patient Experience

Step 1: Facial Mapping

We don’t guess. Your injector will ask you to make several facial expressions (frown, smile, raise brows) to map your unique muscle strength and asymmetry.

Step 2: The Procedure

We cleanse your face with our medical grade skin care in a mini facial. We use an ultra-fine needle. Most patients compare the sensation to a quick bug bite. We use red light therapy at the end of treatment in certain areas. The entire injection process takes about 10–15 minutes.

Step 3: Aftercare

There is no downtime. You can return to work or class immediately.

The Rules: Stay upright for 4 hours. Avoid heavy exercise for 24 hours. This prevents the product from migrating to unwanted muscles.

The Timeline: You will start to see softening in 3–5 days, with the full effect visible at 14 days. Results typically last 3–4 months.

Frequently Asked Questions | Cosmetic Injections

No. Our goal is softening, not freezing. We dose conservatively to ensure you can still express emotion. You won’t look “done”—you will just look like you had a really good night’s sleep.

Most patients are surprised by how easy it is. We use an ultra-fine needle (smaller than what is used for blood draws). The sensation is often compared to a quick pinch or a bug bite.

“Pre-juvenation” is standard practice now. Starting in your mid-to-late 20s allows you to relax the muscles before deep static lines etch into the skin. It is easier to prevent a crease than to fix one.

On average, results last 3 to 4 months. However, this depends on your unique metabolism. High-intensity athletes (like distance runners) often metabolize the product faster than sedentary patients.

A common myth is that your face will “sag” if you stop. This is false. If you discontinue injections, your muscles simply wake up and resume their normal movement. You will gradually return to your baseline appearance—likely with fewer wrinkles than if you hadn’t treated them at all.

Confidence is Quiet

You don’t need to change your face to love it. Smooth the lines, keep the expression.
