Get answers to common questions about Gabella.

Gabella is a targeted neuromodulator treatment that relaxes the muscles between the eyebrows to soften frown lines. Per-unit dosing is used and a consultation determines suitability. Results appear within days and last months; individual responses vary and it does not replace medical care.

Unit needs vary based on muscle strength, severity, and desired outcome. Your clinician will assess during consultation and recommend precise units. Pricing is per unit; customized dosing prioritizes natural results and safety. Typical ranges will be explained in consultation.

Most clients feel only brief discomfort from small injections; topical numbing can be used if preferred. Side effects are usually mild — redness, swelling or bruising — and resolve in days. Most people resume normal activities immediately after treatment.

Initial improvement often appears within three to seven days, with full effect by two weeks. Results commonly last three to four months, varying with metabolism and muscle use. Follow-up or maintenance treatments can extend benefits and adjust outcomes as needed.

Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, and bruising at injection sites. Rare complications like asymmetry or drooping may occur; proper technique minimizes risk. Your consultation covers contraindications, medical history, and aftercare to reduce complications and ensure safety.

Before treatment avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications when possible, and follow your clinician's guidance. After treatment avoid rubbing the area, heavy exercise and heat for 24 to 48 hours, wear sunscreen, and report any concerns promptly.
