One of our Practitioners will make a few tiny, precisely placed injections into the muscles that are causing your wrinkles. The injections will cause a weakening of the muscles, making them relax. The wrinkled skin covering the overactive muscles then becomes smooth as the wrinkles are erased.With repeated treatments, lines and wrinkles soften or smooth out to be less pronounced. Results can take up to 14 days to see the full effect and typically last 2-4 months.
-
The number of units required will vary for each person based on the region being treated, your intended result, your lifestyle, and your daily habits.
-
Tox, Dysport, or Xeomin will start to work in 2-4 days and peak on day 14.
-
After your treatment, you may use cosmetics, skincare, and sunscreens, but avoid applying excessive pressure.
-
Small bumps may be visible around the injection site. These typically last 15 minutes but no longer than a few hours.
Some swelling and bruising are possible but rare. INhance cream is available in the office and can help reduce bruising.
The injections may cause headaches in some patients. Over-the-counter pain-relieving medications can be taken as needed.

Do not exercise, shower, or use a sauna.
Patients should avoid facial massage, microdermabrasion, laser treatment, peel procedure, etc., for at least two weeks after injections.
