Neurotoxins
There are several ways to remove fine lines and wrinkles caused by animation of our muscles. Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin are currently the 3 neuromodulators approved by the FDA for cosmetic use. There are more to come. We use small doses of this purified protein to relax the muscle activity. This happens within 3 days to 2 weeks, but sometimes those lines are etched in the skin and it may take longer. A toxin treatment is little effort high reward. I say that because the discomfort is minimal and the results are impressive. Expect to have this treatment performed 3-4 times a year. The clinical trials show that the average person metabolizes these products within 3-4 months when treated with the FDA recommended dose. If your product wears off sooner, you may just need a higher dose and/or your metabolism is higher. This is common for runners, hot yoga, cardio kick boxers, etc.....pretty much the exact opposite description of me! : )
