Neurotoxin

Neurotoxin

Since Botox was introduced in the early 90s as a solution to reverse the signs of aging, it has gained enormous popularity. People today visit med spas regularly for their “tox,” and they leave looking better and younger. There are four types of wrinkle relaxers on the market now, called Neurotoxins, each specially formulated to relax muscles and reduce wrinkles.
 
Repetitive facial movements (smiling, frowning, squinting, even chewing) cause lines and wrinkles to appear. Over time, muscles become less able to relax, and wrinkles are formed as a result. Neurotoxins are designed to relax the muscles, causing wrinkles to fade or disappear and preventing new wrinkles from forming.
 
Currently, four FDA-approved Neurotoxins are available: Botox® Cosmetic, Jeuveau®, Dysport®, and Xeomin®. These products work in slightly different ways. For example, Dysport has a wider spread and can treat large areas such as the forehead. Xeomin is a more purified form of neurotoxin that is great for those who have developed resistance to other forms of neurotoxin. Our Nurse Practitioners will be happy to partner with you in finding which formulation is right for you!
