Wrinkle Smoothing
Wrinkle Smoothing in Mishawaka
Botox Cosmetic, Dysport and Xeomin Injectables
Botulinum Toxins are commonly called Botox which is a trademarked name from Allergan, though other brand names include Dysport and Xeomin.
Botox Cosmetic injections are a prescription medicine derived from a powerful natural protein. They are designed to block muscle movement at the injection site for 3 to 4 months.
Although botulinum toxins do not erase etched-in lines, over time they can prevent the line from deepening. When injected, the substance works to “weaken” the muscles linked to common facial expressions, giving you a softer, younger and more radiant look.
At our Mishawaka clinic, Botox Cosmetic injections are especially effective at temporarily improving the look of stubborn forehead furrows, wrinkles between the eyes, and “crow’s feet” areas around the upper third of the face. These wrinkle smoothing treatments have helped clients in Elkhart, South Bend, and areas across Indiana.
Botox Cosmetic also works well when used in conjunction with dermal fillers, such as Restylane, Perlane, JUVÉDERM XC and Radiesse, all of which help smooth lines and folds by adding volume beneath the skin’s surface.
Xeomin
Xeomin and Botox Cosmetic are injections that temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe frown lines without changing the look of your face.
- Improves gummy smile
- Soften furrow lines around eyes and forehead
- Lifts turned down corners of the mouth
- Softens lines between eyebrows
- Softens line across forehead
- Softens bunny lines on nose
Xeomin and Botox Cosmetic are made of purified protein that is safe and FDA approved. Injections of appropriate doses, of Xeomin, and Botox Cosmetic weaken muscles (which contract with expression creating wrinkles and creases) to decrease wrinkles and reduce and eliminate lines.
Expressions are still possible! Results take up to 10 days to occur and last 4 months on average. The key is to be treated every 4 months so wrinkles occur less because of decreased muscle movement. In the long run, this will cost less and provide the best results.
