If aesthetic medicine had a hall of fame, BOTOX® Cosmetic would be front and center. Since its FDA approval in 2002, this tiny vial of magic has smoothed, softened, and refreshed millions of faces across 98 countries. With over 16 years of published clinical studies and more than 100 million vials sold, it’s safe to say BOTOX® isn’t just a trend; it’s a global phenomenon.
At Refinery Skin Clinic, we exclusively trust BOTOX® Cosmetic for a reason. Its unique ability to relax wrinkles while preserving your natural expression sets it apart as the gold standard in aesthetic refinement. When you pair it with the right complementary treatments, skincare, and habits, your results can last longer, look fresher, and glow even brighter.
Refinery Skin Clinic is proud to be in the top 1% of BOTOX® Cosmetic providers nationwide, a reflection of our providers’ exceptional skill, experience, and artistry. Our Founder and Nurse Practitioner, Rebecca Suess MSN, RN, APRN, CNP, AGPCNP-BC, CPSN, CANS, ISPAN-F, not only leads our team with clinical excellence but also trains injectors across the country as a faculty member of the Allergan Medical Institute. Translation: you’re in the hands of some of the best providers in the entire region when you schedule BOTOX® at Refinery Skin Clinic!
While BOTOX® may be the main character, every icon deserves a supporting cast that makes her shine. Here are some of the most powerful pairings that our providers love to enhance and perfect your BOTOX® results with.
A Lifestyle That Loves Your BOTOX® Back
Let’s be honest, you can’t out-inject bad habits. BOTOX® works hard, but your lifestyle should too. A balanced diet rich in antioxidants, daily hydration, quality sleep, and consistent movement all play starring roles in keeping your skin vibrant and your results long-lasting.
On the flip side, stress, smoking, poor sleep, and excess alcohol accelerate collagen breakdown, basically fast-tracking the undoing of your injector’s artistry. Treat your body like it’s on your skincare team, and your BOTOX® will thank you by enhancing the look of your healthy lifestyle.
The SkinMedica® Effect: Because Healthy Skin Makes Every Treatment Better
Think of BOTOX® as the director and SkinMedica® as the lighting crew. One relaxes wrinkles, the other makes your skin glow under the spotlight with healthy luminosity. Medical-grade skincare amplifies your injectable results by improving tone, texture, and elasticity, so the smoothness BOTOX® delivers looks even more seamless.
Some of our Refinery team’s favorite supporting players include:
- HA⁵® Collection: A hydration dream team (cleanser, serum, and moisturizer) that keeps skin cushiony soft, unbelievably hydrated, radiant, and plump. Pair with BOTOX® for a “I woke up like this” smooth and dewy complexion.
- TNS® Advanced+ Serum: The skincare world’s cult favorite. This multi-tasking serum stimulates collagen and elastin production while refining texture. It’s the perfect complement to the smooth finish BOTOX® provides.
- LUMIVIVE® System: Your skin’s around-the-clock bodyguard! This two-step system shields by day and repairs by night, defending against environmental stress so your glow never goes off-duty.
- Neck Correct Cream: Because you can’t neglect your neck! When BOTOX® relaxes platysmal bands, this formula helps tighten and smooth the skin for a sleek, graceful, firmer neckline.
- Daily SPF: No exceptions, no excuses. UV damage undoes what injectables do best. Broad-spectrum sunscreen is non-negotiable for keeping results luminous and lasting and preventing future fine lines and wrinkles.
DiamondGlow®: The 3-IN-1 Skin Perfecter and BOTOX® “Prepper”
Smooth skin deserves to shine with radiant health and hydration. DiamondGlow® is a Refinery favorite to prep and perfect the canvas of your skin before BOTOX®. This luxurious, yet powerful 3-in-1 treatment exfoliates, extracts, and infuses targeted SkinMedica® serums into the skin in one go, leaving your complexion cleaner, softer, smoother, and infinitely more radiant.
Because it’s gentle, DiamondGlow® can be performed immediately before your BOTOX® appointment with a Refinery Skin Clinic AP Esthetician. As your wrinkle-relaxing magic unfolds over the next week from BOTOX®, your complexion will already be lit from within with healthy DiamondGlow® hydration that perfectly accompanies your refreshed appearance.
Want to keep the glow going strong? Refinery Skin Clinic’s Glow Getter Membership makes it simple. Each month, your Refinery AP Esthetician will tailor a DiamondGlow® treatment to meet your skin’s exact needs, helping to improve conditions like acne, pigmentation, and dryness while enhancing your natural glow. With this effective and affordable membership, you not only get expert care and noticeable results but also exclusive savings on BOTOX® and medical-grade skincare throughout the year.
SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM®: Hydration Meets Illumination
If BOTOX® is the smooth operator, SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM® is the vivacious best friend who always brings the glow. This first-of-its-kind microdroplet injectable infuses skin with hyaluronic acid, a molecule naturally found in your body that binds water like a magnet to plump and hydrate tissues.
While BOTOX® relaxes and smooths wrinkles, SKINVIVE™ floods your skin with hydration from within, creating a supple, luminous effect that’s often described as “glass skin.” It’s the ultimate duo for anyone craving that lit-from-within glow, especially during dry winter months when your moisturizer just isn’t cutting it. And, yes! SKINVIVE™ and BOTOX® can be performed during the same appointment!
The JUVÉDERM® Collection: BOTOX®’s Perfect Match
Think of BOTOX® and JUVÉDERM® as the aesthetic world’s power couple, with distinct roles and undeniable chemistry. BOTOX® smooths dynamic lines on the face while JUVÉDERM® restores structure, volume, subtle lift, and gorgeous contour. Together, they achieve beautiful, balanced facial harmony that looks natural, refreshed, and highlights your best features.
Some of our Refinery Skin Clinic injectors’ favorite combinations:
- BOTOX® + VOLUX® XC: Smooths neck bands while defining the jawline for a sculpted, youthful profile.
- BOTOX® + VOLBELLA® XC: Softens smoker’s lines around the mouth and enhances lip shape for the most natural-looking, more youthful smile.
- BOTOX® + VOLBELLA® XC (Under Eyes): Relaxes crow’s feet while restoring volume to hollow tear troughs — hello, eight hours of sleep in a syringe!
When art and anatomy align, these pairings don’t just smooth fine lines and improve the appearance of wrinkles; they refine expression and restore balance, leaving you looking refreshed and vibrant, never unnatural or “overdone.”
The Zinc Link: Give Your BOTOX® a BOOST
Could a supplement make your BOTOX® results last longer? For many, it can! A 2012 double-blind study in the Journal of Drugs in Dermatology found that participants who supplemented zinc with phytase (an enzyme that boosts absorption) experienced longer-lasting BOTOX® results.
While everyone’s bodies metabolize BOTOX® differently, maintaining healthy zinc levels may enhance the longevity and onset of your results. Consult your Refinery nurse injector for exact dosing and protocol to follow before your next BOTOX® appointment.
Allē Rewards: Because Consistency Should Pay Off

The Refinery Difference: Skill, Artistry, & Expertise
No matter how well you pair your BOTOX®, the best results always come down to one vital factor — your injector. At Refinery Skin Clinic, every injection specialist is either a Registered Nurse (RN) or Nurse Practitioner (NP), and all are members of the International Society of Plastic and Aesthetic Nurses (ISPAN). (Rebecca is actually the sitting President of ISPAN!) Many also hold or are pursuing the prestigious Certified Aesthetic Nurse Specialist (CANS) certification, representing the highest level of aesthetic nursing expertise.
Our injectors combine science, skill, and artistry to tailor each treatment to your unique facial anatomy. It’s never one-size-fits-all; it’s you, refined.
The Takeaway: Good. Better. BOTOX® + Refinery.
BOTOX® Cosmetic is legendary for a reason, but when you pair it with a healthy lifestyle, medical-grade skincare, and complementary treatments, your results go from great to glow-worthy.
At Refinery Skin Clinic, our team specializes in creating custom treatment plans that enhance and extend your results so you look effortlessly refreshed, confident, and radiant year-round.
