Neurotoxins

Neurotoxins minimize facial muscle movement by interfering with nerve and muscle signals and preventing the muscles from contracting. When the facial muscles relax, lines and wrinkles appear smoother and discourage new lines from forming.

Why do we see an increase in facial lines as we age? The rate at which we produce collagen and elastin slows as we get older. Collagen and elastin are building blocks of the skin, often associated with suppleness, fullness, and skin resilience. We also develop wrinkles when we use our facial muscles. Some notice an increase in lines around the mouth from smiling or frowning or around the eyes from squinting. Neurotoxin Injections are an excellent option for clients who want to treat and prevent fine lines and wrinkles.

Botox®

Botox® is a neurotoxic protein produced by the naturally occurring bacterium Clostridium Botulinum. Botox® injections are a safe and effective way to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. By relaxing the muscles that cause these unwanted lines, Botox® can give you a more youthful look. With just one treatment, you’ll see a noticeable difference in the smoothness and texture of your skin

Dysport®

Dysport® is a botulinum toxin that temporarily relaxes your facial muscles, giving you a smoother, more youthful appearance. It specifically treats moderate to severe frown lines between your eyebrows by reducing the muscle activity that causes them. Just one injection into each of the 5 points between and above your eyebrows will temporarily prevent contractions and give you a more relaxed and refreshed look. Dysport® is an easy, convenient way to reduce the signs of aging and help you feel more confident about your appearance.

Jeuveau®

Jeuveau® is an FDA approved prescription injectable that uses purified botulinum toxin to temporarily relax the small muscle groups that cause frown lines and wrinkles. It is used in adults for a short period of time (temporary) to help with moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines). Treatment is short with no downtime.

XEOMIN®

Xeomin® is a uniquely purified anti-wrinkle injection (without unnecessary proteins*) for frown lines. It is an FDA approved prescription medicine that is injected into muscles to temporarily improve the look of wrinkles in areas including eyebrows, forehead, and around the eyes. Xeomin is a safe and effective treatment option that can provide noticeable results almost immediately to within 3-4 days.

Migraine Management

Neurotoxins are injected into areas of the face, scalp, and neck to help relieve muscular tension, resulting in a decrease of headaches and migraines.

Trapezius Treatment

Neurotoxins can be injected into areas of the shoulders, upper back, and neck to help relieve muscular tension resulting in a decrease of shoulder/neck tension and a slimmer appearance to the shoulder line and neck.

Hyperhidrosis Treatment

Excessive sweating, otherwise known as Hyperhidrosis, can be managed by using neuromodulators such as Botox, Jeuveau, Dysport, or Xeomin injected into the armpits, palms of hands, and soles of feet to minimize sweat gland activity.

Tech Neck

Horizontal lines in the neck often caused by looking downward at today’s latest technology, can be treated with neuromodulators to minimize the appearance of these lines which can bring back a more youthful appearance to the neck.

FAQ's

What neurotoxin brands do you offer at LJ Aesthetics?

At LJ Aesthetics, we carry a variety of neurotoxins to achieve different aesthetic goals. We offer Botox®, Dysport®, Jeuveau®, and Xeomin®. If you don't have a preferred neurotoxin brand, our injector will help you choose the best option for your needs.

What are Neurotoxins?

Neurotoxins block the release of acetylcholine, disrupting the signals that tell facial muscles to contract. Lines and wrinkles form when you smile and make other facial expressions. Over time, they gradually deepen and become more pronounced. Neurotoxins help facial muscles relax, creating a smoother and firmer appearance while preventing the formation of more fine lines.

How quickly will I see results after neurotoxin injections?

It varies by brand, but you will typically see results within two to four days. Neurotoxin results last about three to six months. Maintenance appointments are needed for long-term results and preventative care.

Do neurotoxins erase deep wrinkles?

The rate at which we produce collagen and elastin slows as we get older. Collagen and elastin are building blocks of the skin, often associated with suppleness, fullness, and skin resilience. While neurotoxins smooth lines and wrinkles by relaxing the facial muscles, they do not restore collagen or create volume. If you are interested in non-surgical facial rejuvenation, consider scheduling a dermal filler or Sculptra consultation with our expert injector at LJ Aesthetics.
