Neuromodulators
At Medical & Beauty Care Clinic serving Oakbrook neuromodulators have revolutionized the field of aesthetic medicine. These remarkable treatments offer a non-invasive solution for those seeking to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and achieve a more youthful, refreshed look.
Neuromodulators target the underlying cause of facial lines and wrinkles: the repetitive muscle contractions that occur over time. When we smile, frown, or squint, our facial muscles contract, causing the skin above them to crease. Over the years, these repeated contractions form lines and wrinkles, making us look older than we feel.
What Are Neuromodulators?
tYPES OF NEUROModULATORS
Botox®
Botox is a neuromodulator type of treatment utilized to diminish the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the face. This prescription medication is derived from a toxin, the Botulinum toxin, administered through Botox injections to relax the facial muscles that create these lines and wrinkles. While Botox is known for its cosmetic use, it also has various medical applications, such as treating migraines, excessive sweating, and even muscle spasms.
Dysport®
Jeuveau®
Jeuveau, often referred to as "Newtox," is a neuromodulator used to reduce the appearance of frown lines between the eyebrows. Similar to Botox and Dysport, Jeuveau is made from Botulinum toxin and works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals to the muscles that cause wrinkles. This results in a smoother, more youthful appearance. The effects of Jeuveau typically last for several months, making it a popular choice for those seeking cosmetic improvements.
Daxxifi®
Daxxify is a newer neuromodulator designed to treat moderate to severe frown lines. It works by blocking the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions, thereby smoothing out wrinkles and lines. Daxxify is notable for its long-lasting effects, which can extend up to six months or longer in some cases. This extended duration makes Daxxify an attractive option for patients looking for longer-lasting results from their cosmetic treatments.
Dysport is a prescription medication that temporarily improves the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows. Dysport injections block the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions in the treated area, which can smooth out the wrinkles and creases in the skin. The Dysport treatment typically involves a series of injections into the muscles that create unwanted lines and wrinkles, and the effects can last for several months. Additionally, Dysport has been approved for other medical indications, such as treating muscle spasms and excessive sweating.
Xeomin®
Xeomin is a neuromodulator similar to Botox and Dysport, used to treat frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines. What sets Xeomin apart is its formulation, which is free from accessory proteins. This "naked" form of Botulinum toxin may reduce the risk of the body developing resistance to the treatment. Xeomin is also used for various medical conditions, including muscle spasms and excessive sweating, and its effects can last for several months
