WRINKLE RELAXERS

Make your wrinkles disappear with Dysport® and Botox®. These are safe and effective medications that are gently injected into the muscles of the face that are responsible for causing creases and wrinkles. This treatment is the most effective for softening frown lines (vertical lines between the eyebrows), crows feet around the eyes, and the horizontal forehead lines, giving the face a younger and more refreshed appearance. Botulinum injections are one of the most popular cosmetic treatments in the world.

Why You Have Wrinkles

Wrinkles develop naturally as part of the aging process and from environmental factors. Younger skin has more structure, holds moisture better, and produces more collagen. Over time, the body loses collagen, elastin, and volume, causing the skin to fall, creating more wrinkles. Combined with environmental damage from free radicals, such as UV light and air pollutants, the skin can age prematurely, breaking down collagen faster and causing increased wrinkles and lines. It is important to include Vitamin C and sunscreen into regular skincare routine.

There are 2 main types of wrinkles

Static Wrinkles - are fine lines resulting from the natural aging process or environmental exposure, causing loss of elasticity and collagen. Examples include genetics, active outdoor lifestyle, UV damage, and smoking.

Dynamic Wrinkles - are facial creases and wrinkles caused by repetitive muscle movement from facial expressions. Years of continued expressions, such as frowning, squinting, and smiling can eventually cause deep lines and creases on the skin. Thankfully, dynamic lines can be treated with Dysport and Botox!

How ANTI-WRINKLE INJECTIONS Work

Dysport® and Botox® are made from neurotoxins, which are perfectly safe and have been used in practice for over 25 years. This purified protein is gently and strategically injected into the muscles that are responsible for causing wrinkles. The nerves of those muscles are blocked so they do not receive signals for the muscles to move, which causes the muscles to relax and soften, therefore, diminishing wrinkles and creases. The injections are enough to reduce wrinkles but not to freeze the face, so facial expressions will be normal but with softened movements and a smoother appearance.

What The Procedure Feels like

During the procedure, treatment areas will be cleaned and disinfected. This treatment is administered with fine needles and will be injected in multiple sites to target different muscles. The injections will feel like mild pin pricks, however, most people find this procedure to be pain-free and easy. Treatment will take about 15-30 minutes.

who is a good candidate

If you are anywhere between your 20’s to 60’s you may want to consider Anti-Wrinkle Injections if you have any unwanted facial wrinkles. Younger and older people can both develop facial wrinkles from repeated expressions and may use this as a preventative measure or corrective measure. Smiling, frowning, squinting and—basically any facial movement—can eventually lead to wrinkles. They can make you appear tired or even angry when you are not. One of the quickest and safest treatment to remove wrinkles is with Anti-Wrinkle Injections with Dysport® and Botox®.

Number of Treatments

Dysport® and Botox® work the best when it is on a schedule. Individual schedules will vary and depend on when muscles start to regain movement. It is recommended to return for treatment every 3-4 months or when there is notice of movement. It is best not to wait for the muscles to fully recover and gain full strength as that will create deeper wrinkles.

What to Expect Immediately After Treatment

Immediately after treatment, there may be some mild redness and tiny bumps from the injection sites, which will be resolved in the next 20 minutes or so. Although uncommon, bruising is possible with injections.

When to Expect Results

Softening can be noticed as early as 4 days after treatment, however the onset varies between individuals with final and peak results will be in about 2 weeks. The effects can last up to 3-4 months and varies between individuals.
