Wrinkle-Relaxing Neuromodulators

Neuromodulators are highly effective products in cosmetic dermatology used to smooth wrinkles and fine lines. These injectables are particularly beneficial for dynamic wrinkles, which are lines that manifest due to repetitive muscle movements. These muscle contractions occur when we make facial expressions like smiling or frowning, and the lines can become etched into our skin over time and remain there even when our faces are at rest.

By temporarily blocking nerve signals that prompt muscle contractions, neuromodulators help relax the targeted facial muscles, reducing the appearance of age-related creases. The result is enhanced skin smoothness and a more youthful and refreshed look.

Neuromodulator Options at AboutSkin

At AboutSkin Dermatology and Aesthetics, we offer three leading neuromodulator options: Botox, Dysport and Daxxify. Each has unique characteristics tailored to meet different needs and preferences.

BOTOX® Cosmetic

Botox is perhaps the most well-known neuromodulator on the market and has been a staple in cosmetic treatment for decades. Many patients choose Botox for its proven track record and efficacy. It’s derived from botulinum toxin type A and is FDA-approved for reducing the appearance of facial wrinkles. Botox is particularly effective for treating crow’s feet around the eyes and frown lines between the eyebrows.

Botox results generally become noticeable within three to four days and peak around 10 to 12 days. The majority of patients experience smoother skin for up to four months.

Dysport®

Dysport is another FDA-approved botulinum toxin type A product. It’s specifically formulated to spread a little more than Botox, making it ideal for larger treatment areas, such as the forehead.

Although similar to Botox, some patients find that Dysport works faster, with results noticeable within a couple of days of treatment. This can be particularly appealing for those who desire quick results, such as when preparing for an upcoming social event. Like the effects of Botox, Dysport results typically last three to four months.

DAXXIFY®

Daxxify is the latest addition to the neuromodulator family and is known for its long-lasting effects. Like Botox and Dysport, Daxxify is derived from botulinum toxin type A and is FDA-approved for reducing the appearance of facial wrinkles. It is particularly effective for treating prominent forehead lines and frown lines between the eyebrows, making it a strong option for those looking for enduring aesthetic improvements.

Daxxify’s effects are notable for their onset and duration. Results typically become apparent within a few days, similar to Dysport, with peak effects observable shortly thereafter. What sets Daxxify apart is its durability; the effects can last up to six months, significantly longer than most other neuromodulators. This extended period can reduce the frequency of treatments needed, which is highly beneficial for individuals with busy schedules.
