What are neurotoxins?

Injectable neurotoxins are purified proteins that act like messengers to relax muscles. When strategically injected into specific areas of the face, they temporarily block nerve signals that tell muscles to contract. This reduces muscle activity, particularly those that cause wrinkles and frown lines when you express emotions. The result is a smoother and more relaxed appearance, often lasting several months.

While primarily used for existing wrinkles, neurotoxins can also be used preventatively to minimize the formation of new wrinkles by reducing muscle movement in areas prone to creasing.

At Michael J. Orseck MD, we offer a range of injectable neurotoxins, including Botox® and Jeuveau®, to help you achieve smoother, younger-looking skin.

Who Is A Good Candidate For Neurotoxin Injections?

Injectable neurotoxins are a popular choice for individuals seeking a non-surgical way to address visible signs of facial aging. If you have noticeable frown lines, crow’s feet around the eyes, or forehead lines, neurotoxins can effectively relax those muscles and smooth out the appearance of these wrinkles. Early signs of wrinkles can also be addressed with neurotoxins. By targeting developing lines, they can help prevent them from worsening over time.

While neurotoxins offer impressive results, they are not permanent. Understanding the temporary nature of the treatment and the need for maintenance sessions is key.

Frequently Asked Questions About Neurotoxins

Jeuveau and Botox are FDA-approved for wrinkle reduction and have a good safety profile when administered by a qualified healthcare professional. However, as with any medical procedure, potential side effects include bruising, swelling, and temporary headaches.

The results of Jeuveau and Botox typically last 3-4 months. Periodic maintenance injections may be needed to maintain the desired effect.

The injection process is typically quick and relatively painless. A small amount of Jeuveau or Botox is injected into targeted areas of the face. Minor discomfort may occur during the injection, but most people tolerate it well.

The time to see results can vary depending on the specific product and your skin concerns. However, you can generally expect to see noticeable improvement within a few weeks of consistent use.

As with any skincare product, potential side effects like dryness, irritation, or redness may occur. It’s important to follow usage instructions carefully and consult your dermatologist if you experience any concerns.

Latisse is a topical solution applied to the upper eyelid margin using sterile applicators (similar to eyeliner). It’s crucial to follow the doctor’s instructions carefully and avoid contact with the lower eyelid or the eye itself.

Results are gradual. You might see some initial changes within 4-8 weeks, but it typically takes 12-16 weeks of consistent use to see the full effect.

Once you stop using Latisse, your eyelashes will gradually return to their previous state within a few weeks or months. Consistent use is necessary to maintain the desired results.
