Neuromodulators Injection

( Botox ®, Dysport ®, Xeomin ®, etc.)

Neuromodulators also known as neurotoxins (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin) are the most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment, with more than 6 million Botox treatments administered each year. Botox injections are noted primarily for the ability to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles. They’re also used to treat conditions such as neck spasms (cervical dystonia), excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), an overactive bladder and lazy eye. Botox injections may also help prevent chronic migraines.

Medical Purpose of Neuromodulators:

  • Cervical dystonia
  • Lazy eyes
  • Muscle contractures
  • Hyperhidrosis
  • Chronic migraine
  • Hemifacial spasm
  • Bladder dysfunction
  • Eye twitching

How DOES it work?

Botox injections use a toxin called onabotulinumtoxinA to temporarily prevent a muscle from moving. This toxin is produced by the microbe that causes botulism, a type of food poisoning. Neuromodulators begin to take effect 3 to 4 days after injection by gradually relaxing the targeted muscles. The full effect is visible within two weeks, at which point muscle movement in the area is temporarily inhibited. These results typically last 3 to 6 months, depending on the treatment area.

Where We Use Neuromodulators in Cosmetic Treatments?

The most common use of these injections is to temporarily relax the facial muscles that cause wrinkles in the forehead and around the eyes. Examples include:
  • Canthal lines (crow’s feet)
  • Glabellar lines (frown lines between the eyebrows)
  • Forehead lines
  • Neck lines and wrinkles
  • Nose lifting (Depressor Septi Nasi muscle and Nasalis muscle)
  • Mouth corners lifting (DAO muscle)
  • Gummy smile
  • Lower face slimming (masseter)
  • Jawline definition
  • Lip Flip
  • Barcode lines (around the mouth)
Is Botox injection safe?
Although botulinum toxin is life-threatening, small doses — such as those used in the application of Botox — are considered safe. ... Still, the overall risk is minimal, and Botox is considered safe overall. You should always go to a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon for Botox injections.
Can Botox ruin your face?
Botox doesn't actually erase wrinkles Its active ingredient “freezes” facial muscles to keep you from contracting them in ways that deepen lines and wrinkles. “Any line that is present at rest, whether it is an etched in frown line, or a deep wrinkle, is not going to disappear with Botox.
Who should not get Botox?
People who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a neurological disease should not use Botox. Since Botox doesn't work for all wrinkles, you should consult with a doctor first.

BENEFITS AND PRECAUTIONS

Botox is most effective on wrinkles that haven’t quite set — “dynamic” wrinkles that appear while you’re moving your face, such as when you frown. “If you don’t move the muscle too much, you won’t form the wrinkle,” says Columbia University dermatologist Monica Halem, MD. She considers Botox preventive.

If you’re breastfeeding, pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, the FDA recommends that you talk to your doctor before starting Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin.

Uses
