Neuromodulators, such as Botox®, Dysport®, and Xeomin®, are injectable substances containing botulinum toxin that temporarily paralyze or relax targeted muscles to reduce wrinkles and fine lines.

Neuromodulators work by blocking nerve signals to specific muscles, preventing them from contracting. This results in a temporary reduction of muscle activity, smoothing out wrinkles and preventing the formation of new lines.

When administered by a qualified healthcare professional, neuromodulators are generally safe. Serious side effects are rare, and the treatment has a long history of use in medical and cosmetic applications.

The effects of neuromodulators typically last for 3-4months, with results gradually wearing off. Maintenance treatments can be scheduled to sustain the desired outcome, which is what we recommend!

Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, those with certain neuromuscular disorders, or individuals allergic to ingredients in neuromodulators may not be suitable candidates. A thorough consultation is necessary to assess individual suitability.

The procedure is generally well-tolerated. Some people may experience mild discomfort during the injections, but the process is quick, and any discomfort is temporary.

Like any medical treatment, it is important to be aware of the possible risks of the procedure. Mild side effects may include temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. In very rare cases, there may be eyelid or eyebrow drooping or asymmetry, which is usually temporary. It is crucial to follow our aftercare guidelines. We also recommend to follow up with us 2 weeks after your treatment to ensure optimal results!

Individuals looking to reduce dynamic wrinkles caused by facial expressions, such as frown lines, forehead lines and crow's feet, may be ideal candidates. We also see many patients who come in to do preventative neuromodulator treatments. A consultation with Dr. Sonya helps determine suitability based on individual goals and health considerations.

A neuromodulator treatment involves a minimally invasive procedure where a healthcare professional injects botulinum toxin into targeted muscles to relax the muscles. Results typically become noticeable within a few days, leading to a smoother and more youthful appearance, and reaches its peak 2 weeks after the injection. This is when your muscles will be the most relaxed and your wrinkles will be less apparent. The results typically last 3-4months. You should expect your results to gradually decrease over the course of 3-4 months. The amount of product used to achieve the desired look will be discussed during the consultation with Dr. Sonya.
