What Are Wrinkle Relaxers?
A wrinkle relaxer is an injectable cosmetic treatment used to smooth the fine lines and wrinkles that develop around the face from years of repeated muscle movements. Wrinkle relaxers are great for improving signs of aging, such as forehead wrinkles, Crow's feet surrounding the eyes, and "11" lines between the eyebrows. These products are created from a special strain of botulinum toxin type A, which briefly blocks contractions in the facial muscles. In time, the presence of wrinkles is lessened as the skin has a chance to recuperate and refresh itself naturally. At Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery, we offer some of the most popular names in wrinkle relaxers, including BOTOX®, Dysport®, DAXXIFY®, and Jeuveau®, all formulated to help address a variety of aesthetic concerns. If you are looking for providers who specialize in achieving natural-looking enhancement with wrinkle relaxers, reach out to our offices in Chicago, IL and schedule your private consultation with our experienced team.
How Are Wrinkle Relaxer Treatments Performed?
During your initial consultation, our team will help you determine which wrinkle relaxer formula is ideal for your aesthetic goals. We offer wrinkle relaxer injections as an in-office treatment that can be performed during the same visit as your consultation. You will be asked to create different facial expressions using the upper face. This allows us to target the injections in the correct area. First, we wash the skin, mark the injection sites, and insert a thin syringe to deliver the injections. To limit tenderness and sensitivity, we use a cold compress immediately following the injections. Depending on the selected formula and number of injections, your procedure will likely take close to 10 – 15 minutes, and then you can go back to your regular routine.
What Are the Benefits of Wrinkle Relaxers?
Lines and wrinkles on your forehead and between your eyes can make you look older than you truly are. Wrinkle relaxer injections at Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery can dramatically refresh your appearance by temporarily "freezing" the facial muscles while maintaining your ability to express yourself. The benefits of this treatment include:
- Results look natural and can remain for up to 3 – 4 months
- No downtime required after your appointment
- Creates a more refreshed appearance
- Simple, nonsurgical option
- Temporarily prevents the development of wrinkles
- Addresses forehead wrinkles, Crow's feet, and frown lines around the eyes
