Wrinkle Relaxers

Xeomin® | Dysport® Jeuveau®
Reduce fine lines and wrinkles, improve facial contours, lift eyebrows, soften frown lines, and smooth skin texture
What They Are
Neuromodulators are an FDA approved treatment for the treatment of fine lines and wrinkles. They are safe, highly effective and require zero downtime. When carefully injected, Botox®, DAXXIFY®, Dysport®, Xeomin®, and Jeuveau® calm facial muscle movement, leaving skin smooth and resulting in renewed, natural appearance.
How They Work
Neuromodulators target dynamic muscle movement. We inject small doses to temporarily block muscle contraction and allow facial muscles to relax.
What To Expect
Treatment takes less than 30 minutes, and you will experience minimal to no downtime. Noticeable results typically appear within 3-5 days after treatment, with full results at 14 days post-treatment.
FAQs
-
It depends on several factors including: which area(s) you are trying to treat (11s, forehead, crow’s feet, etc), the strength of your facial muscles, and how deep your existing lines are. We recommend a consultation with our nurse injector to create a plan that is right for you.
-
Most patients tolerate the procedure easily. The needle is small, thin, and we offer ice for topical numbing and increased comfort. The procedure is quick, and no other numbing agents are needed.
-
There’s virtually zero downtime with these treatments. Neurotoxins are often referred to as a “lunchtime procedure,” since most patients return directly to work or normal activity immediately. Some redness and swelling may occur at the injection sites, but it usually subsides within minutes to hours.
-
Results last around 3-4 months, depending on the location of the treatment, your muscle activity and your body’s individual response.
-
While these products contain the same active ingredient, their chemical compositions are slightly different. We recommend talking to our nurse injector to understand which product is the best fit for you!
-
Wrinkle relaxer injections are low risk procedures. Headache, minor bruising or swelling at the injection site are the most common side effects. As with any treatment, there are always risks which your nurse injector will walk you through prior to treatment.
-
Avoid alcohol, NSAID medications, or other blood thinners prior to your appointment. Please refrain from wearing any makeup so that your skin may be accurately assessed.
People who are pregnant or nursing are not eligible for neurotoxin treatment.
