At Phoenix MedSpa, we offer neuromodulators that can quickly, safely, and effectively smooth the most common expression lines, including crow’s feet, fine lines, frown lines, and wrinkles. Clients who want a non-surgical wrinkle removal or wrinkle reduction treatment plan with neurotoxins like those found in BOTOX can benefit from our quick and efficient treatments and, with regular treatments, can maintain smooth skin and keep these lines at bay long term.
Neuromodulators are wrinkle reduction injectables specifically formulated with active ingredients called neurotoxins that smooth dynamic wrinkles on the upper half of the face. These lines form due to years of repetitive movements and the gradual weakening of the skin’s structural layers resulting from the natural aging process. We offer treatments with BOTOX and Dysport and will soon be offering XEOMIN.
Neurotoxins are the active ingredients in neuromodulators that relax facial muscles to smooth fine lines and wrinkles. The most common neurotoxin is botulinum toxin A, which is found in products like BOTOX. It works at the muscular level to smooth line and wrinkles at the surface. Neurotoxins block communication between muscles and nerve fibers. After treatment, the muscles will enter into a state of relaxation, and you’ll no longer make exaggerated expressions. When your muscles are at rest, the result is smooth, wrinkle-free skin.
Clients who undergo treatments with neuromodulators can expect an efficient treatment process and visible results within a few days of their injections. We can customize each client’s treatment plan with the right amount of product to address each problem area. Other treatment benefits include the following:
Of all the neuromodulators, BOTOX was the first wrinkle reduction injectable available to target fine lines, crow’s feet, and dynamic wrinkles. Since its introduction into the cosmetic world over 20 years ago, it has helped millions of men and women reverse the impact of the aging process on their skin. It has been studied, tested, and proven to be a safe wrinkle removal treatment and delivers long-lasting yet temporary results.
If aging or genetics have caused the formation of light, moderate, or severe dynamic lines on the upper half of your face, we can use neuromodulators like BOTOX to smooth the skin by relaxing the facial muscles responsible for those expression lines.
One of the reasons that BOTOX is so popular is that it is FDA-cleared to treat the most common areas of the face where expression lines appear. We can design treatment plans to smooth frown lines, crow’s feet, fine lines, and dynamic wrinkles. Patients can treat one or multiple areas during a single appointment to reduce treatment times and achieve the most comprehensive results.
The treatment process begins with a consultation. Our goal is to learn more about your problem areas, treatment goals, and primary concerns. We’ll ask you some questions about your medical history to confirm that our wrinkle reduction treatments are right for you. Once we confirm your treatment eligibility, we can proceed with the injection process.
There’s no social downtime after a treatment with neuromodulators. You can resume most normal activities and even return to work post-treatment. BOTOX and other wrinkle-relaxing injectables are considered lunchtime injectables because you can schedule your treatments during your lunch hour and resume your day as usual.
You will need to follow some aftercare instructions post-treatment to ensure the best results. You’ll need to avoid hot environments and strenuous workouts, keep your head elevated for several hours after your appointment, avoid blood-thinning supplements and medications, avoid alcohol consumption, and avoid touching the treatment site.
You’ll be provided with detailed aftercare instructions after your treatment so that you know what steps to take to protect the injection sites and your results.
After you undergo treatment with BOTOX or another one of the similar neuromodulators, you can expect results within the first few days. For some, results are evident within the first two days; for others, it can take up to a week. Regardless of when your results appear, you can expect the best results by 30 days post-treatment.
On average, neurotoxins will relax the facial muscles for three to four months. The body will slowly metabolize the product ingredients, and as it does, your muscles will regain their normal ability to contract. Once you start to see a change in the appearance of your skin and your expression lines reappear, you can schedule a follow-up treatment so we can add the necessary amount of product to the area to prevent the full reappearance of your expression lines.
The best candidates for neuromodulators are clients who want a long-lasting solution for dynamic wrinkles, fine lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet. If other anti-aging treatments haven’t made a significant difference in the appearance of your expression lines, you may be the perfect candidate for a wrinkle reduction treatment plan.
Clients should be in good health, have realistic expectations about the treatment process and the outcome, be willing to follow all the aftercare instructions, and commit to scheduling follow-up treatments to maintain long-term results. Pregnant and nursing women do not qualify for treatment, nor do those who have an allergy to any of the ingredients in the products.
The best way to determine whether neuromodulators are right for you is by scheduling a consultation at our office so that we can meet with you and learn more about your problem areas and medical history. That way, we can determine whether you would benefit from a customized wrinkle removal treatment plan.
If your topical products and anti-aging care treatments aren’t making a significant difference in the appearance of your expression, we offer a treatment that will. Whether you want to schedule a BOTOX treatment or learn more about the other neuromodulators coming soon to Phoenix MedSpa, we can schedule an initial consultation to give you more details.
