Neuromodulators (Wrinkle Relaxers)
Neuromodulators, commonly referred to as wrinkle relaxers or neurotoxins, are FDA-approved, non-surgical injectables derived from botulinum toxin type A, used to temporarily smooth dynamic facial wrinkles by blocking nerve signals that cause muscle contractions. Popular brands like Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin treat areas such as frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead creases for a rejuvenated, youthful look, with results typically appearing in 5–14 days and lasting several months.
Dysport (abobotulinumtoxinA), an FDA-approved injectable neurotoxin, is used to temporarily smooth facial wrinkles, moderate-to-severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines), forehead, crow's feet and alleviate muscle stiffness. It achieves this by relaxing the muscles, with noticeable results typically appearing within 2-3 days and lasting up to 5 months. Dysport is often considered slightly more cost-effective per unit than Botox.
Botox (onabotulinumtoxinA), is a neurotoxin produced by Clostridium botulinum that temporarily relaxes muscles by blocking acetylcholine release, used for both cosmetic (wrinkles) and therapeutic (migraines, muscle spasms, bladder dysfunction) purposes. It is used to smooth dynamic wrinkles, such as forehead lines, frown lines, and crow's feet. Results typically last 3–12 months, with effects appearing within 1–7 days. Common side effects include bruising and swelling.
Juveau, often referred to as “Newtox,” is an FDA-approved injectable neuromodulator used to temporarily smooth moderate to severe facial wrinkles. Derived from botulinum toxin type A, Jeuveau was specifically designed as an FDA-approved injectable treatment that temporarily enhances the appearance of glabellar lines, also known as frown lines. Frown lines are also commonly referred to as “11’s” due to their resemblance to the number 11, with two vertical folds resembling the digits.
Xeomin (incobotulinumtoxinA), is a prescription injectable medication used to temporarily relax muscles, thereby treating wrinkles and certain medical conditions. It is commonly known as “naked Botox” because it is a purified form of botulinum toxin type A that lacks the “accessory” or complexing proteins found in other products like Botox or Dysport. Xeomin has received FDA approval for both cosmetic and therapeutic applications.
