What Is a Neuromodulator? A neuromodulator, sometimes called a neurotoxin, is a highly purified protein and is the active ingredient in all of our anti-aging injectables. It works by blocking the communication between the muscles injected during treatment and the brain. When the nerve signals can’t carry the message to the muscles to contract, they remain relaxed, which leads to wrinkle reduction and wrinkle removal. Neurotoxins are safe, highly purified, and effective active ingredients that can reverse the signs of aging and help alleviate symptoms of muscular-related health conditions.

The injection process is quick and virtually painless. It only takes approximately ten minutes to receive treatment. Our injector will administer a series of quick and virtually painless treatments with a thin, fine needle. Some patients request a topical numbing solution before beginning the injections; others do not. Our injector can discuss the treatment with you to determine if you would benefit from a topical numbing solution or if it is unnecessary for you.

What Are The Post-Treatment Instructions? You won’t have to plan around downtime after your injections, but our injector will provide you with a list of detailed post-treatment instructions to ensure the best outcome. You must avoid strenuous workouts for 24 hours post-treatment, so if you plan on working out on the day of your appointment, be sure to schedule your workout before your treatment. You also must avoid environments or activities that increase your body temperature as well as excess sun exposure. After your treatment: Keep your head elevated for at least four hours Avoid touching the treatment sites Avoid anti-inflammatory supplements and medications and alcohol consumption for at least 24 hours

All our neuromodulators are fast-acting treatments. Most patients begin to notice an improvement in their treatment areas and younger-looking skin within three to four days of their initial injections; for others, it takes closer to seven days. The best results appear within 30 days of the initial treatment and last anywhere from three to four months. Regular follow-up treatments once your results begin to wear off will ensure that you can continue to live wrinkle-free long-term.

Yes, combining Botox with hydrafacial treatments can enhance overall facial rejuvenation by addressing both dynamic wrinkles and skin hydration.

Candidates generally range between the ages of 20 and 65, as wrinkles in individuals over 65 are considered “static” and do not disappear when the skin relaxes. There are other procedures that target static wrinkles. However, each patient is unique, and private consultations are recommended to determine the best and most effective treatment plan.
