WHAT ARE WRINKLE RELAXERS?

A wrinkle relaxer is a noninvasive injectable treatment to address fine lines and wrinkles that develop due to frequent muscle contractions. It can help reduce signs of aging, including forehead creases, Crow’s feet near the eyes, and “11” lines between the brows.

Wrinkle relaxers use a specialized strain of botulinum toxin type A, temporarily blocking facial muscle contractions. Over time, the appearance of wrinkles is lessened once the skin can heal and renew naturally. Brisa Aesthetics proudly offers several kinds of wrinkle relaxers, such as BOTOX®, XEOMIN®, and Dysport®, depending on your unique needs. Our team is highly accomplished in creating natural-looking results with wrinkle relaxer injections at our Weymouth, MA location.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF WRINKLE RELAXERS?

Furrows and wrinkles on your forehead and between the eyes may cause you to look older than you actually are. Wrinkle relaxers are used to diminish the appearance of such concerns by temporarily restricting your ability to alter facial movements. A wrinkle relaxer injection at Brisa Aesthetics offers further advantages for Weymouth, MA patients, such as:

  • Addressing forehead wrinkles, Crow’s feet, and frown lines around the eyes
  • Providing a more rested look
  • Temporarily preventing potential creases
  • Simple, noninvasive technique
  • No downtime involved after the appointment
  • Outcomes look natural and can remain for up to 3 – 4 months

ARE WRINKLE RELAXERS RIGHT FOR ME?

Wrinkle relaxer injections are an excellent option for patients who would like to minimize the look of wrinkles and lines on their upper face without experiencing a surgical procedure. In some cases, wrinkle relaxers, like BOTOX®, are sought by younger patients (including those in their 20s) who wish to fend off signs of aging altogether. Our team will review the specifics of each product and help you select the option that is best for you. If you are dealing with deeper lines, a dermal filler may be advised to complement your wrinkle relaxer treatment.

WHAT IS A WRINKLE RELAXER TREATMENT LIKE?

During a thorough exam at our Weymouth, MA practice, your provider will decide which wrinkle relaxer treatment is ideal for you and your aesthetic goals. Wrinkle relaxer treatments are performed as an in-office treatment so that they can be completed along with your initial visit. You will be told to create several facial expressions involving the muscles in the upper face. This allows us to administer the injections in the correct area. First, we will wash your skin, mark the treatment areas, and use a thin syringe to deliver your injections. A cold compress will be applied immediately following the injections to limit any discomfort and sensitivity. Depending on the formula type and number of injections, your treatment can last close to 10 – 15 minutes, after which you may return to your typical day.
