Neurotoxin treatments, such as Juveau, Botox, Xeomin, and Dysport, offer a highly effective approach to reducing wrinkles and fine lines that result from muscle movement. Medical professionals meticulously inject these medications into specific muscles, carefully determining the dosing based on muscle mass and strength. Beyond their cosmetic application in smoothing the skin, neurotoxins are versatile in addressing hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) and enhancing facial aesthetics through procedures like the lip flip, which can mitigate a gummy smile. The efficacy of neurotoxins extends beyond immediate aesthetic improvements, contributing to a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
Individuals seeking to reduce wrinkles and fine lines, manage excessive sweating, or address specific aesthetic concerns such as a gummy smile are excellent candidates.
Results typically become noticeable within 3-7 days after treatment.
The duration of neurotoxin treatments usually varies from 3 to 4 months for its effects to last.
No downtime is required, and side effects are rare but can include temporary bruising or swelling at the injection site.
Before treatment, avoid blood-thinning medications to reduce bruising risk. After treatment, avoid rubbing the treated area for 24 hours to prevent the spreading of the toxin.
The treatment involves small injections into targeted muscles. It is quick, typically taking only 10-15 minutes, with minimal discomfort.
