Soften Facial Wrinkles

Derived from bacteria, botulinum toxin type A is a purified neuromodulator that relaxes the muscles causing wrinkles by blocking the nerves from signaling the muscles to contract. Without the nerve signal, the muscles cannot contract, and unwanted facial wrinkles diminish.

What is Botulinum Toxin?

Over time, our facial expressions etch lines into our faces – crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles, frown lines, lip lines, and many more. These dynamic wrinkles can give our complexion a more aged or stressed appearance even when we are relaxed and at ease. Commonly known by its trade names – BOTOX, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau, and Daxxify – botulinum toxin is an FDA-approved medical treatment to relax the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles. Its many uses include lifting and shaping the brow, enhancing facial symmetry, smoothing the skin, correcting a gummy smile, and decreasing excessive underarm sweating.

Types of Botulinum Toxins

BOTOX

Probably the most well-known injectable treatment made of botulinum toxin type A, BOTOX minimizes the appearance of fine lines and dynamic wrinkles in the skin, safely and efficiently restoring a youthful glow to your complexion. BOTOX injections treat crow’s feet, frown lines, smile lines, and other wrinkles, with results lasting from three to five months.

Dysport

Dysport smooths frown lines with five-point injections above and between the eyebrows to temporarily prevent your muscles from contracting. Without etched frown lines in the brow area, you can restore a more rested, joyful glow to the face. Most users experience an improvement two to three days after treatment that lasts up to five months.

Xeomin

Made from a pure, double-filtered formula of botulinum toxin, Xeomin has removed unnecessary proteins, so the main active ingredient contains just what’s necessary to soften lines. Even if other neuromodulators have become ineffective, Xeomin has no additives, so there is less risk of building a tolerance or desensitization to the product. Results can last as long as six months.

Jeuveau

FDA-approved to treat glabellar lines between the brow, Jeuveau is a newer member of the botulinum toxin family. An exceptional prejuvenation treatment, Jeuveau can prevent furrows in the brow area long before they begin, helping you stay ten steps ahead of aging. Patients start to see the results within a week, typically lasting between three to four months. 

Daxxify

Made from botulinum toxin type A and stabilized by a novel peptide, Daxxify contains a unique formulation that allows for longer-lasting results. Approved by the FDA as a brow-smoothing treatment, Daxxify softens dynamic wrinkles between the eyebrows, known as glabellar lines, for an average of six months, with the potential to last up to nine months for some individuals.

What is the Procedure Like?

Our injections of BOTOX in Beverly Hills takes less than 20 minutes, making them a convenient treatment to fit easily into the day. During your consultation with Dr. Sykes, you will discuss your aesthetic concerns, and he will iron out a treatment plan to soften the lines in your face.

He will artistically inject the targeted muscles. The botulinum toxin absorbs into the nerve terminals over four to six hours, gradually relaxing the muscles and reducing their ability to contract and form wrinkles. The maximum results can usually be seen a week or two after the treatment.
