How Neurotoxin Injections Work
If you’re looking for a quick and easy way to reduce fine wrinkles, consider Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin in Boca Raton. These effective FDA-approved injectables are quite popular when it comes to addressing signs of aging. Crow’s feet, glabellar lines, horizontal forehead lines, smoker’s lines, vertical neck bands, and chin wrinkles can all be treated.
How Do Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin Work?
There are two main categories of injectables: neuromodulators (also called wrinkle relaxers) and dermal fillers. Dysport, Xeomin, and Botox fall under the wrinkle relaxers category.
These products are composed of small proteins that intercept certain transmissions in our body’s nerve cells. They block nerve signals to overworked facial muscles, allowing the muscles to temporarily relax. As a result, the skin over these muscles relaxes, causing shallow wrinkles to fade.
Neuromodulators are delivered in small doses. Their results typically last for anywhere from three to four months. After this time, patients can return for maintenance treatments.
Botox
Botox (onabotulinumtoxinA) was introduced as the first anti-wrinkle injection on the market. Results can be evident inside 24 to 48 hours (even though sometimes it might take up to seven days).
Dysport
Dysport (abobotulinumtoxinA) was introduced as a competitor to Botox. It has a protein attached to its toxins and has particles that are generally smaller than Botox’s. Dysport tends to spread, which makes it easier to tackle surfaces with larger areas like the forehead. The results will appear in around two to three days and can last several months.
Xeomin
Xeomin (incobotulinumtoxinA) is a treatment that does not need to be refrigerated before use and has no additives. The effects start to appear in a few days or up to a week.
What to Expect During Treatment
At the start of a neuromodulator treatment session, the patient’s face is washed. The injection sites are marked as a guide, and then the injections are delivered precisely into the targeted wrinkles. No general or local anesthesia is necessary.
Aftercare and Recovery
Once your treatment session is complete, you will be able to return to your daily schedule without any need for recovery. This makes neuromodulator treatments very convenient for busy professionals.
Following treatment, there may be minor redness, swelling, and bruising at the injection sites for a short time. To aid in reducing these, you can apply an ice pack as directed. It will be best to avoid strenuous activities for 24 hours after your injections.
How Much Do Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin Cost?
The cost of Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin treatments depends on the specific details of each patient’s case. Price may be affected by the number of units of product required to achieve the patient’s aesthetic goals. The number of wrinkles being treated can also impact cost.
