When clients come into their consultation appointments concerned about fine lines and wrinkles, one of our top recommended treatments isn’t fillers: it’s wrinkle relaxers.
While you may not have heard of a wrinkle relaxer before, we bet you’ve heard of Botox or Dysport. These injectables are among the latest evolutions in wrinkle reduction technology, and we offer them at Touch MedSpa in North Myrtle Beach.
There’s an incredible science behind how wrinkle relaxers work and how they help you achieve a naturally youthful appearance. This article will give you the inside scoop, as well as explain the process we use to bring the benefits of Botox and Dysport to your skin.
The Science Behind Wrinkle Relaxers
The way wrinkle relaxers work on a scientific level is simple yet brilliant.
You see, injectables like Botox and Dysport contain neurotransmitters called neuromodulators. These neuromodulators disrupt the signals that your brain sends to contract different parts of your face. This means your skin will no longer ripple or form lines where your crow’s feet or any other wrinkles are located.
To understand why relaxing facial muscle contractions is important to wrinkle reduction, picture the crow’s feet around your eyes. These wrinkles don’t just randomly appear. As you age and your skin naturally loses elasticity, the act of squinting in the sun will eventually cause tiny little lines to form around the corners of your eyes.
By injecting Botox or Dysport around the crow’s feet, we can stop that area from forming new wrinkles and smooth out the existing lines. Isn’t that amazing?
A Wrinkle in Time: Injection Duration, Downtime, and Longevity
Another incredible thing about wrinkle relaxers is the relatively low duration of injections and post-treatment downtime.
Individual Botox injections only take around 10-15 minutes (you can get them on your lunch break!). Afterward, you may experience some minimal pain and swelling, but you should feel completely back to normal in just 1-2 days (back to work you go!).
As for longevity, you can expect your Botox treatments to last for up to 3-4 months. At that point, the relaxers will dissipate, and you can either return to Touch MedSpa for a refill or embrace your face without them.
No, Your Face Won’t Look Like That
You know what we’re talking about. While some people prefer a full face of Botox, many more worry about looking like Madonna or Chrissy Teigen: over-filled and artificial.
When you come to Touch MedSpa, you can trust us to use wrinkle relaxers sparingly. Our goal is to keep your appearance as natural-looking as possible while still addressing your wrinkle concerns. It’s a fine line, but our skincare professionals are experienced enough to help you achieve the best results.
