Neurotoxin Treatments

The muscles underlying the skin has a huge contribution to our facial appearance and wrinkles. Simply put, its excessive muscle activity that causes the creases of the skin, or the exaggerated size and tone of the muscle that has a baring of the proportions of the face and its contours.

Neurotoxin injections require great finesse as the assessment of the muscles of face and neck determine how much and where we inject the product. There are 13 different areas of the face that a master injector assesses, beyond what your standard practitioner routinely jabs, such as frown lines, crows feet and the forehead.

Each treatment listed below is designed to provide natural-looking results, with minimal downtime and discomfort by simply injecting the product into isolated overactive muscles, that relax the muscles resulting in the smoothing of appearance:

Browlift

Browlift is a neurotoxin treatment that is designed to lift and shape the eyebrows. It works by relaxing the muscles that pull the eyebrows down, resulting in a more lifted, youthful appearance.

Forehead lines, Frown lines, Crow’s feet, Bunny lines, Marionette lines

These neurotoxin treatments are all designed to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the face. They work by relaxing the muscles that cause these wrinkles, resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance.

Gummy smile, Lip flip, Chin dimpling

These are treatments that don’t really treat lines, but they lower the resting tone of the muscle at rest, and then also inhibit excessive muscle contracture.

Jaw slimming

Also known as Masseter slimming, is a neurotoxin treatment that is designed to slim the jawline by reducing the size of the masseter muscles. This can help to create a more feminine, contoured appearance and even treat jaw grinding, also known as Bruxism. To also learn of our other solutions to slim the face, click here.

Migraines

Neurotoxin treatments can also be used to treat migraines. They work by blocking the signals that cause migraines, resulting in fewer and less severe headaches. The injections are in the hairline, back of the head, and the neck muscles too.

Nefertiti Neck lift

The Nefertiti Neck lift is a neurotoxin treatment that is designed to enhance the appearance of the jawline. It works by relaxing the platysma muscle, which can help to reduce the appearance of sagging skin and jowls.

Patients can also use neurotoxins as a temporary treatment for excessive sweating.

Depending on the product of choice, the neurotoxin takes action within 24 hours and within 7 days, wrinkles begin to subside at about the day 7 mark, and for other applications such as muscle size reduction this can take up to a month to show.
