Wrinkle-Relaxing Treatments

Wrinkle Relaxers are known as Neuromodulators. There are 5 FDA-approved neuromodulators on the market: Botox, Jeuveau, Dysport, Daxxify, and Xeomin.

Wrinkle Relaxer treatments are a popular and effective way to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Whether you’re new to Botox or looking to optimize your results, these tips will help you prepare for your treatment.

1. Start Early for Best Results

Wrinkle relaxers are most effective when started at the earliest signs of etched-in lines that appear even when your face is at rest. This preventative approach helps keep wrinkles from becoming more pronounced over time. However, even if you already have deeper-set lines, wrinkle-relaxing treatment can still provide significant improvement.

2. Understand the Timing

Neuromodulator treatments are typically spaced apart by an average of 3 months. The effect of duration varies, depending on individual factors such as metabolism and the area treated. Most see the return of facial muscle movement within 3-4 months. I will work with you to plan your appointments accordingly to maintain optimal results.

3. Expect Gradual Return of Wrinkles

After your treatment, you will notice a gradual return of muscle movement as the effects wear off. This natural progression is normal and expected. Most often, at 3 months, the skin at rest is better than baseline even though muscle movement has returned to normal or near normal.

4. Follow Simple Aftercare Measures

Post-treatment care is crucial for optimal results. We will discuss specific instructions, but generally, you should avoid rubbing the treated area and engaging in strenuous exercise. Following these simple steps can help enhance your results and minimize any potential side effects.

5. Explore the Versatility of Neuromodulators

While neuromodulators are most commonly used to treat wrinkles in the upper face, it has many other beneficial uses. They can be used for the full face and beyond, including treating excessive underarm sweating (hyperhidrosis), rosacea, reducing acne, and skin tightening.

Preparing for your wrinkle-relaxing treatment can make a significant difference in achieving the best results and ensuring a smooth experience. By following these five essential tips, you can maximize the effectiveness of your treatment and enjoy a rejuvenated, youthful appearance. Remember to stay hydrated, avoid certain medications and supplements, communicate openly with your provider, follow pre-treatment instructions, and have realistic expectations.
