Benefits of a Neuromodulator
Do you feel like you are looking worn down when you look in the mirror? Wrinkles become a problem for many people as they age. Neuromodulators will lessen your wrinkles and give an even more youthful appearance to the forehead, temple areas, eyes, around the mouth, neck, and more!
As we age our skin produces less collagen leading to more noticeable lines/folds. By using neuromodulators such as BOTOX® these problems are reduced dramatically while also achieving a smooth, youthful look.
Our Neuromodulator Brands:
BOTOX® and DYSPORT®
What areas can be treated with BOTOX® Cosmetic?
Repeated muscle contractions from frowning, squinting, or raising eyebrows cause skin to furrow and fold, gradually resulting in the formation of facial lines.
BOTOX® Cosmetic works beneath the surface and temporarily reduces the underlying muscle activity that causes moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines in adults – to help them look better.
How Does BOTOX® Work?
BOTOX® injections will make you look years younger by reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. BOTOX® relaxes the muscles that cause these wrinkles by blocking the nerve signals that tell your muscles to contract.
The affected facial muscles start to relax after a few days. By the end of 14 full days, all wrinkles will be less visible and it is encouraged that you return every 3 months in order to maintain preventative benefits long-term.
Getting the injections takes about 15 minutes. You can resume normal daily activities right after, with the exception of strenuous exercise.
What to expect: Appointments and Results
Before your appointment:
To help avoid bruising, we suggest that our patients avoid any blood-thinning medications or supplements for two weeks before the appointment. They can also reduce the risk of bruising by avoiding alcoholic beverages 24 hours prior to coming in.
After your appointment:
It is important to avoid any sort of rubbing, massaging, exercise, and staying in an upright position, for at least 6 hours after your injections.
Results:
It usually takes 2 weeks before your treatment looks visibly smoother. It can last approximately 3 months for each session depending on the target area.
