Neurotoxins

Neurotoxins work by being injected into specific facial muscles, where they prevent the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for signaling muscle contractions. This mechanism results in the targeted muscles relaxing, which reduces the visibility of wrinkles and fine lines. The procedure is typically quick, often completed in just a few minutes, and involves minimal discomfort for the patient. After receiving treatment, individuals can generally return to their normal daily activities without significant downtime, making it a convenient option for busy lifestyles. Results from neurotoxin treatments usually become noticeable within a few days and can last anywhere from three to six months, depending on the specific product used and individual characteristics such as skin type and muscle activity. With consistent treatments over time, patients can effectively maintain a smoother, more youthful appearance, enhancing their overall aesthetic without the need for invasive surgical procedures.
