Tired of your frown lines , forehead lines or crows feet? Neuromodulators such as Botox, Dysport, and Daxxify are the answers to reducing dynamic wrinkles (wrinkles caused by muscle movement).

What are Neuromodulators?

Less creasing of the skin allows new collagen to replenish, softening of lines, and allows others to see a more refreshed and rejuvenated you. The effects of neuromodulators typically last about three to four months for Botox and Dysport, and 6 months for Daxxify for wrinkles. They can also be used to reduce underarm or palm perspiration for 6 to 9 months, and reduce jaw-clenching masseter muscle volume for 6-8 months. Our physicians are published experts in the use of botulinum toxin to reduce facial lines, hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), and masseter reduction.

How do Botox, Dysport, and Daxxify Work?

Neuromodulators are muscle-relaxing injections of botulinum toxin that are used to treat frown lines, forehead lines, crow’s feet and more. Daxxify has an extra peptide which prolongs its effects for up to 6 months.  Our Board-Certified physicians choose the right amount of neuromodulator for you, which is then injected directly into the underlying muscle, causing it to relax and gradually smooth out the appearance of the overlying skin.

Additional Treatment Areas

Advanced treatment areas include the depressors of the corners of the mouth, “bunny lines” on the nose, neckline bands, and masseters (jaw muscles) enlargement for a more narrow, heart shaped face. “Trap-Tox” or “Barbie Botox” treats the trapezius muscle which helps relax and therefore slim the shoulder/upper back muscle, elongating the neck. It is important to choose an experienced physician for any neuromodulator treatment, as a vast understanding of muscle structure is needed for desirable outcomes.

Questions? We can help!

What are considered neuromodulator "areas" at CCSD?

The most common areas we treat are forehead, frown lines (11's) and crow's feet. We also treat multiple other areas for cosmetic, anti-aging and therapeutic purposes!

Results will vary from patient to patient. Most see results in 1-5 days for Dysport, 3-14 days for Botox, and 2-3 days for Daxxify.

Dysport and Botox tend to last 3-4 months and Daxxify can work up to 6 months, depending on the patient and area treated.

Neuro treatments are a quick, 10 minute appointment. Pain can be very minimal, however you may notice a pink bump at the injection site that resolves within hours. Patients can return to work the same day of treatment.
