Wrinkle Relaxers

Wrinkle relaxers are a great way to freshen your appearance by smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines, giving you a refreshed and more youthful look. This type of injectable targets the facial muscles that cause lines and wrinkles to appear, and it temporarily relaxes them so they cannot contract. Depending on your situation, there are many factors that may shorten or lengthen your results.

Crow’s feet, frown lines, and vertical lines between the brows can all be reduced with wrinkle relaxers like BOTOX(r), Dysport(r), and Jeuveau (r). In addition to reducing fine lines, wrinkle relaxers can also subtly plump the lips or create a more defined “11” line.

The goal is to achieve a natural-looking result that does not affect your normal expressions. You will begin to see visible improvements within 3-5 days, and the results typically last 3-4 months. Your licensed medical professional will customize your treatment to ensure the best possible results. You may need regular follow-up treatments to maintain your refreshed and renewed appearance.

Dermal Fillers

A dermal filler is an injectable gel that adds volume to the face to soften lines and wrinkles. These products contain a safe, FDA-approved ingredient like hyaluronic acid, polymethyl methacrylate, calcium hydroxylapatite, or the person’s own body fat. They are generally used in the middle and lower areas of the face. Combining Botox Bowling Green KY and dermal fillers can help balance the face and create a more natural, youthful appearance.

Many dermal fillers are made of hyaluronic acid, which can hold moisture like a sponge and hydrate the skin. It also helps the body produce more collagen. These fillers work well on smile lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines. They can also plump the cheeks, lips, and hands.

Unlike most facial surgery procedures, these treatments do not require extended downtime or recovery periods. Patients can return to work, school, and other activities immediately after the treatment session. However, they should avoid rubbing or massaging the injected area.

Botox

Botox is the most popular injectable neuromodulator. It contains botulinum toxin type A, which temporarily inhibits nerve signals that cause muscles to contract. This is used to reduce fine lines and wrinkles that develop when muscles shorten and tighten. Other brands of products that contain botulinum toxin include Dysport, Xeomin and Jeuveau.

It is also used to treat conditions like severe underarm sweating, muscle contractions of the neck/shoulders, uncontrollable blinking and bladder/bowel issues. It can help alleviate chronic migraine headaches as well.

While this substance can be lethal in large amounts, the small, purified and diluted amount that is used for injections is safe and provides relief from many health and cosmetic problems. The most common side effects are pain, bruising and swelling at the injection site. Rarely, if the neurotoxin migrates from its target, it can lead to double vision and drooping of the eyelids (ptosis). These symptoms should resolve within a few months.

Dysport

Dysport is another wrinkle relaxer that works in a similar way to Botox Bowling Green KY. It is also made from a neurotoxin and can be used to treat other areas of the face besides frown lines. It is often injected in the forehead area to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

It works by blocking the release of acetylcholine to stop muscles from contracting. Like Botox Bowling Green KY, it is approved by the FDA to soften glabellar lines, which are vertical wrinkles that appear on the forehead in between the eyebrows. It is also used to treat cervical dystonia, lower limb spasticity in children and adults, and blepharospasm.

It typically takes three to seven days for Dysport to take effect and it lasts for four to six months before touch-up sessions are needed. There is no downtime associated with this treatment and it can be done in a doctor’s office. It is important to discuss any potential side effects with an experienced medical professional.
