Neurotoxins
Discover the transformative effects of neurotoxins, commonly known as botulinum toxin type A. With five FDA-approved brands available in the U.S.—Botox®, Dysport®, Xeomin®, Jeaveau®, and Daxxify®—these treatments are widely used for both medical and aesthetic purposes. Aesthetically, neurotoxins are injected to diminish fine lines and wrinkles on the face and neck by temporarily relaxing the muscles responsible for these lines.
Preventive use is key to reducing excessive movement and preventing lines from becoming permanently etched into the skin. However, even if you already have etched lines, it’s never too late to start. Almost everyone will see an improvement in the look and feel of their skin in the treated areas. Reducing or preventing lines and wrinkles with neurotoxins is an excellent way to maintain a youthful appearance.
Results from a neurotoxin treatment typically begin to take effect within 3-5 days, with peak effects observed around the two-week mark. These effects can last from 3-5 months on average, depending on individual metabolism, the number of units used, and the specific product.
