Bid Dynamic Wrinkles Farewell With Injectable Wrinkle Relaxers in North Jersey

Dynamic wrinkles are the folds and creases that appear in our skin as an eventual result of our facial movements. Whenever we frown, squint, smile, or furrow our brows, our facial muscles contract, which gradually causes those unsightly wrinkles to appear. Dynamic wrinkles can make your face look older and worn down, and that can have a significant impact on your self-confidence and detract from your natural beauty. At EltraSelf, we have several available wrinkle relaxers that are designed specifically to smooth out dynamic wrinkles and create firmer, more youthful facial skin.

What Are Neurotoxin Wrinkle Relaxers?

At EltraSelf, we offer several injectable neurotoxins meant to soften dynamic wrinkles and temporarily prevent future wrinkles from developing. These treatments, which include BOTOX, Dysport, and Xeomin, are made with the active ingredient botulinum toxin type A, a type of neurotoxin known as a neuromodulator.

When these neuromodulators are injected into the facial muscles, the communication between those muscles and the nerves is temporarily blocked. This prevents the muscles from contracting, which causes the skin to become smoother and firmer and stops new wrinkles from forming.

What Wrinkle Relaxers Are Available at EltraSelf? 

BOTOX

BOTOX, which was originally approved by the FDA in 2002, is the world’s most popular wrinkle treatment. When BOTOX is injected, it blocks the muscle contractions that cause dynamic wrinkles to develop, leaving the facial skin looking smooth, firm, and youthful. BOTOX treatment is a simple process that’s entirely safe and offers results lasting approximately three to four months. Some of the most commonly treated types of wrinkles with BOTOX include crow’s feet, frown lines, forehead wrinkles, jowls, and lip lines.

BOTOX is Highly Versatile

While most people are familiar with BOTOX as a quick, effective solution for erasing frown lines between the eyes and smoothing the forehead, this gold-standard neuromodulator has dozens of other surprising uses, both cosmetic and medical. Aesthetically, BOTOX can also address a gummy smile by relaxing the hyperactive muscles between the nose and upper lip that cause an excess of tooth show. BOTOX can also be an essential solution for softening the appearance of rigid neck bands. With regular BOTOX injections, the neck appears smoother and more youthful over time.

Medically, BOTOX is known to address an array of issues, from TMJ and migraines to hyperhidrosis and shoulder tension. Its key mechanism of relaxing overactive muscles has dozens of applications, including relieving bladder spasms, crossed eyes, eyelid spasms, foot pain, stomach contractions, and even premature ejaculation, painful intercourse, and abnormal heartbeats! BOTOX is truly the invention of the century with its chameleon-like ability to correct the appearance, health, and well-being of patients in and beyond Florham Park and Morristown.

How Does BOTOX Differ From Dysport and Xeomin?

In terms of the similarities between BOTOX, Dysport, and Xeomin, all three neuromodulators are derived from Clostridium Botulinum type A. They all work in exactly the same way, blocking nerve signals to relax the targeted muscles. And results for each last around 3-5 months. All three injectables are excellent tools in the fight against facial aging, targeting frown lines, forehead creases, and crow’s feet without the need for invasive plastic surgery.

Key differences between the three leading neuromodulators center around 1) the purity of the formula, 2) the degree of dispersion, and 3) how quickly patients experience results. BOTOX and Dysport are engineered with additional proteins, whereas Xeomin, often called “Naked BOTOX,” is additive-free. This means that certain patients who have allergies to BOTOX or Dysport may find success with Xeomin instead. 

When it comes to the issue of dispersion, Xeomin spreads the least, filling out a radius of about a dime. BOTOX spreads about the radius of a penny, and Dysport about the size of a quarter. The greater the level of dispersion, the more units that are typically needed.

In terms of the onset of results, the average time to see results with Xeomin is within 2 days. Dysport results usually kick in within 2-3 days, and BOTOX results become evident within 4-5 days.

Other Neurotoxins Available at EltraSelf

Dysport

Dysport, originally approved by the FDA in 2009, is another powerful neurotoxin. Like BOTOX, Dysport contains the active ingredient botulinum toxin type A, but its formula is slightly different. Unlike BOTOX, Dysport contains cow’s milk protein, so it’s not a good choice for patients who are allergic to that protein. Dysport is primarily used to reduce glabellar lines, also known as frown lines, between the eyebrows. This neurotoxin can keep the area between your brows smooth and wrinkle-free for around three or four months.

Xeomin

Xeomin is another effective neurotoxin used to reduce dynamic wrinkles. Unlike BOTOX and Dysport, Xeomin consists only of botulinum toxin type A, with no other ingredients. For this reason, Xeomin is sometimes referred to as the “naked injectable.” Because it contains no additives, Xeomin is less likely to cause allergic reactions than other neuromodulators. Most commonly, this neurotoxin is used to treat wrinkles around the eyes, eyebrows, and forehead. On average, the results of Xeomin last for between three and six months.

Are You a Good Candidate for Injectable Wrinkle Relaxers?

You could be a good candidate for Dysport, Xeomin, or BOTOX in Morristown if you’re dealing with moderate to severe dynamic facial wrinkles. The best candidates for injectable wrinkle relaxers are looking to smooth out their crow’s feet, frown lines, and/or forehead wrinkles to achieve smoother, firmer facial skin. To be a good candidate for these treatments, it’s also important that you have no allergies to botulinum toxin and no active skin infections. Additionally, ideal candidates should be in generally good health and not currently pregnant or breastfeeding.

Recovery and Aftercare

Typically, patients don’t require any downtime after undergoing treatment with injectable neurotoxins. You should be able to get back to work and your normal routine immediately, but you may experience some swelling and redness in the treatment area. You’ll need to refrain from rubbing or scratching the injection sites, and you should also wait at least 24 hours to engage in strenuous physical activity.
