Stingers
Precision neuromodulator treatments that soften dynamic wrinkles and prevent new ones.
What are Stingers?
"Stingers" is what we call neuromodulator treatments at Formula Fig. Our certified practitioners offer Letybo® and Botox® to treat and prevent dynamic wrinkles.
In addition to Stingers, you might also choose to enhance your treatment with dermal fillers, or what we like to call: Rejuvenate + Plump.

Pre-Treatment
Before You Arrive
Try to avoid arriving on an empty stomach.
Privacy
Your privacy is important to us. Upon arrival, we'll guide you into your private Pod for your Stingers intake. Feel free to do a little touch-up in the Pod afterwards – we have cold packs to help with any swelling, post-treatment and at home.
What to Avoid
- Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before treatment to reduce the risk of bruising.
- Neuromodulator treatments during pregnancy and while nursing
Post-Treatment
Aftercare
- Cold packs are your friend. Use them liberally for 8 hours to help reduce swelling.
- Remain upright and do not lie down for at least four hours after treatment.
- Avoid exercise for 24 hours after your treatment. Facials are a no-go for at least 14 days.
- Avoid reapplying makeup immediately after treatment, and minimize touching or rubbing the treated areas for 24 hours.
- Avoid facial massage or using a gua sha on treated areas for at least 14 days.
- Stay hydrated. Drink plenty of water after your treatment.
- Facials post-treatment (Tip: book your facial before Stingers)
Possible Side Effects
Temporary, small, raised red bumps may appear at the injection sites and typically resolve within one hour. Reported side effects include headache, mild bruising, and localized swelling. Contact your provider if any reaction persists or worsens.
Follow-Up
We'll text you to check in on your progress and to see if you'd like to set up a 14-day follow-up appointment. Sometimes you may need a little tweak.
