Relaxants

What are relaxants? Relaxants like Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin are an injectable wrinkle relaxant that makes facial lines appear softer or all together fade away. It also keeps muscles that have gotten more powerful from years use to contract less and cause less permanent creases in skin.

While Botox is one of the most heard of products for wrinkle relief, there are other options to consider:
Dysport®, Xeomin® and now Jeuveau®.

Relaxants are not just for women, but men too! The number of men choosing treatments like Botox^® is rising. In the past three years, men have received over one million botulinum toxin treatments. When surveyed, the majority of men say they want to look good and they’re bothered by the changes they see in the mirror. 80% would choose to treat their crow’s feet first, while 74% would prioritize their forehead lines, and 60% would most like to treat their frown lines.
