wrinkle relaxers

WHAT DO WE SEE WHEN WE LOOK IN THE MIRROR? DO WE SEE PERFECTION, OR DO WE SEE ALL THE THINGS WE DON’T LIKE; WRINKLES, CROW’S FEET, FROWN LINES, ETC? EVERYONE IS HIS OR HER OWN WORST CRITIC. BUT HOW ABOUT FEEL BETTER ABOUT THOSE THINGS?

Neuromodulators, or wrinkle relaxers, can do just that by relaxing the muscle, decreasing the appearance of the wrinkle and smoothing out fine lines. With little to no downtime, wrinkle relaxers can be injected into the targeted facial muscles using a profound understanding of facial anatomy, to improve your youthful appearance.

As we age, collagen production decreases and your skin loses elasticity. There are two types of wrinkles we see on our face, making us look older. Dynamic wrinkles are seen when the face shows expression, such as excitement, surprise, sadness, anger or deep concentration. Dynamic wrinkles fade as quickly as they appear and when the face is expressionless, the dynamic wrinkle disappears. Static wrinkles, however, are still present when the facial muscles relax and are seen when you have no expression on your face. The appearance of dynamic wrinkles eventually becomes static wrinkles as we mature. Neuromodulators stop the motion that makes the wrinkle; it does not eliminate the wrinkle completely. Time, skincare, collagen regeneration, sun protection and a healthy diet will eventually heal the wrinkle.

Wrinkle relaxers can treat forehead lines, frown lines, crow’s feet, uneven brows, skin laxity, square jaws, TMJ, and teeth grinding/clenching. Neuromodulator injections are a quick non-surgical treatment with no downtime or long recovery. The procedure is little to no pain without incisions or scars leaving you looking natural when walking out of the office

Botox

Botox is the first FDA approved treatment of moderate to severe forehead lines, frown lines and crow’s feet. Botox works beneath the skin to temporarily relax the muscle that causes the skin to wrinkle. Some see results in as little as 4 to 7 days, with full effect in 30 days, lasting approximately 3 to 4 months.
