WRINKLE RELAXERS • WEYMOUTH, MA
Wrinkle Relaxers
BOTOX® Cosmetic • Dysport® • XEOMIN®
Wrinkle relaxers are injectable neuromodulators used to soften expression lines caused by repeated muscle movement. At Brisa Aesthetics, wrinkle relaxers are approached conservatively and artistically — with the goal of helping you look more rested, refreshed, and polished without looking stiff or overdone.
Depending on your anatomy, movement pattern, and goals, treatment may be used to soften upper facial lines, refine facial balance, and support more elegant, natural-looking results over time. We offer BOTOX Cosmetic®, Dysport®, and XEOMIN® at our Weymouth, MA practice and will help determine which option makes the most sense for your treatment plan.
What are wrinkle relaxers?
Wrinkle relaxers are injectable medications made with botulinum toxin type A. They work by temporarily reducing the activity of specific muscles that create dynamic lines from repeated facial movement. When those muscles relax, the skin has a chance to smooth, which can soften the appearance of existing lines and help prevent some lines from becoming more deeply etched.
At Brisa Aesthetics, treatment is never one-size-fits-all. Your provider will assess how your face moves, where you hold tension, how much movement you want to preserve, and how subtle or noticeable you want your result to feel. The goal is not to erase expression — it is to refine it.
BOTOX® Cosmetic

What are the benefits of wrinkle relaxers?
Many patients choose wrinkle relaxers because they want a fresher look without surgery or downtime. Common goals include smoothing visible expression lines, softening a tired or tense appearance, creating more balance in the upper face, and maintaining smoother skin over time.
What patients love
Quick appointments, minimal interruption to the day, and results that can look clean, subtle, and very natural when placed thoughtfully.
Why Brisa’s approach is different
We prioritize restraint, facial harmony, and dosing that fits your unique movement pattern — not a frozen finish.
Are wrinkle relaxers right for me?
Wrinkle relaxers are ideal for adults who want to address dynamic facial lines or refine specific movement-driven areas without surgery. They can also be part of a preventative aesthetic plan for younger patients who want to soften strong habitual movement before lines become more fixed.
Some treatment areas requested by patients are FDA-approved cosmetic indications, while other areas are commonly treated based on individual provider assessment and anatomy. During consultation, we will talk through what is appropriate for your goals and whether wrinkle relaxers alone — or in combination with dermal filler or another treatment — would create the best overall result.
REAL RESULTS
Before & After
Wrinkle relaxers can soften lines while still preserving the character of your face. Dosing, placement, and timing matter — which is why your treatment plan is built around how you move, not just where you crease.
Some patients want a very polished finish, while others want as much movement preserved as possible. Both can be done beautifully when the plan is thoughtful.
What is a wrinkle relaxer appointment like?
Consultation
We evaluate your movement patterns, resting facial balance, prior treatment history, and what kind of result you want to achieve.
Treatment
After cleansing the skin and confirming placement, a thin needle is used to place small amounts of product into the targeted muscles.
Aftercare
Most people return to normal activity right away. Your provider will review aftercare instructions and timing for best results.
