Over time, your skin can change and develop fine lines, wrinkles, and expression creases. While these signs are a natural part of aging, they may make you feel self-conscious or unhappy with the way you look.
At Greer Plastic Surgery, our board-certified plastic surgeon and aesthetic team offer FDA-approved neurotoxin injections, including BOTOX, Dysport, and Xeomin, to help slow and prevent the formation of wrinkles. Neurotoxins in Mentor are a proven way to restore and maintain your youthful glow, allowing you to age gracefully. Contact us today to learn more about your medspa treatment options.
Neurotoxins are noninvasive injectable treatments that temporarily relax your facial muscles, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles caused by facial movement. These agents contain botulinum toxin type A, a safe and highly purified protein that works by gently interrupting the nerve signals that cause your muscles to move.
Many facial wrinkles result from muscles that persistently stretch and crease the skin. Each of the neurotoxin injectables we offer to our patients in Mentor works to freeze these muscles. These treatments help soften visible wrinkles and can also prevent the formation of new wrinkles, by allowing your skin to rest.
At Greer Plastic Surgery in Mentor, we offer three FDA-approved neurotoxins, all proven to be safe and highly effective at reducing the formation of wrinkles. BOTOX, Dysport, and Xeomin help soften dynamic wrinkles, restoring a refreshed, relaxed appearance with natural-looking results.
BOTOX is the most well-known neurotoxin. This gentle, purified form of botulinum toxin can improve moderate to severe crow’s-feet, frown lines, and forehead lines. You will begin to notice a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles within one week of your BOTOX injections, with results lasting up to three months.
If you are looking to smooth wrinkles in precise areas, such as the forehead and between the eyebrows, Dysport is an effective option. You will begin to notice improvements within a few days, with results lasting up to three and a half to four months.
As one of the newer neurotoxin injectables, Xeomin contains a highly purified form of botulinum toxin, without added proteins. Its simplified molecular design makes it a great choice for individuals with sensitive skin or allergies. It can help reduce wrinkles between your eyebrows, with quick results that last around three months.
Deciding whether neurotoxins are right for you depends on your goals, lifestyle, and readiness to pursue cosmetic treatments. For many, neurotoxin injectables are a safe and empowering way to reduce signs of aging and restore a youthful glow.
You may be a good candidate for neurotoxin injections if you have started to notice early signs of aging that are visible when your face is at rest. These signs include:
While these injectables offer temporary results, they are not reversible. You should be ready to commit to your results for up to three months. If you are satisfied with the outcome, you can schedule appointments every three to six months to maintain optimal results.
