Our wrinkle treatments are put into a category known as neuromodulators. The
International Neuromodulation Society defines neuromodulators as “technology that acts directly upon nerves. It is the alteration—or modulation—of nerve activity by delivering electrical or pharmaceutical agents directly to a target area.”
While Botox is one of the most well-known neuromodulators, each of our wrinkle relaxers are made of similar ingredients and designed to prevent the targeted area from contracting—reducing and even erasing wrinkles caused by muscle movement. In addition to minimizing the appearance of wrinkles, our treatments can help manage excessive sweating or oiliness.
This process takes less than 15 minutes. Our team will walk you through the aftercare and any potential side effects, which are often minimal and confined to minor swelling, soreness, and bruising.
The most common areas to receive wrinkle treatments include:
- Forehead
- Around the eyes
- Chin
- Neck
- Brow
- Across the nose
- Around the mouth
