Neurotoxins
Neurotoxin treatments at Renovaré offer a proven, non-surgical way to achieve a smoother, more youthful look. These injectables relax targeted facial muscles to soften lines caused by repeated expressions, leaving skin looking refreshed without altering your natural features..
What Are Neurotoxins?
Neurotoxins are injectable treatments that temporarily block nerve signals to specific muscles, reducing the muscle activity that causes expression lines and wrinkles. At Renovaré, only FDA-approved products are used, and treatments are performed by skilled injectors who tailor each session to your facial anatomy and aesthetic goals. The process is quick, with minimal downtime, making it a popular choice for patients seeking effective anti-aging results without surgery.
How Neurotoxins Work
A fine needle delivers the neurotoxin precisely into targeted muscles. The treatment blocks the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that signals muscles to contract. By relaxing these muscles, the skin above them smooths out, reducing the appearance of existing lines and preventing new ones from forming. Results generally develop within a few days and can last three to four months before a maintenance session is needed.
Conditions Neurotoxins Can Treat
Neurotoxins address dynamic wrinkles — those caused by repeated facial expressions — as well as certain non-cosmetic concerns.
- Frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines)
- Forehead lines
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Bunny lines on the nose
- Downturned corners of the mouth
- Neck bands (platysmal bands)
- Gummy smile
- Excessive underarm sweating (hyperhidrosis)
- Headaches
By relaxing targeted muscles, neurotoxins not only smooth away lines but also help prevent them from deepening over time. The results are subtle yet noticeable, allowing patients to look rested and rejuvenated without looking “frozen.”
