Botox & Xeomin Wrinkle Relaxers Available Near Helena, MT
Create a more youthful appearance.
Facial lines can be caused by a variety of factors. It’s not solely related to cellular changes, collagen reduction, or damage from sun exposure and environmental factors. The repetitive contractions of facial muscles when frowning, squinting, or raising eyebrows also play a significant role, leading to the gradual development of furrows and folds in the skin, eventually forming facial lines.
Wrinkle relaxers, such as BOTOX® or Xeomin®, are injectable treatments that, when injected into specific areas, such as the forehead, frown lines, or crow’s feet, smooth out wrinkles and facial lines, creating a more youthful appearance. The effects typically last for several months, and the treatment is known for its quick procedure time and minimal downtime.
BOTOX®
BOTOX® works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions. It contains a purified form of botulinum toxin, which inhibits the release of a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine. By relaxing the targeted muscles, Botox helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles and lines caused by repetitive muscle movements, providing a smoother and more youthful appearance.
How soon will I see the results of BOTOX®?
The results of BOTOX® treatment may start becoming noticeable within 24 to 48 hours. However, individual responses can vary. The full effects of BOTOX® typically become more apparent within 1 to 2 weeks.
What do I need to do post BOTOX® treatment?
After receiving BOTOX® injections, avoid touching or massaging the treated area for at least 24 hours to prevent the spread of the product to unintended areas. Refrain from strenuous physical activities and exercise for the first 24 hours to minimize the risk of complications or product migration. Stay upright and avoid lying flat for a few hours after the procedure to allow the BOTOX® to settle into the targeted muscles. Avoid consuming alcohol for at least 24 hours post-treatment, as it may increase the risk of bruising.
How long do BOTOX® results last?
The duration of BOTOX® results can vary depending on factors such as metabolism, muscle activity, and the specific area being treated. The effects of Botox injections typically last around 3 to 4 months. However, this can vary from person to person. As the effects wear off gradually, muscle contractions and the appearance of wrinkles may gradually return.
