Dynamic wrinkles, like frown lines and crow’s feet, are a natural part of aging but can be frustrating to manage. Neurotoxins offer an effective way to soften these lines with subtle yet visible results. At Pure Envy MedSpa in Orlando, we take a holistic, results-driven approach to neurotoxins. Our goal is to provide treatments that deliver noticeable improvements while maintaining a natural look. With every session, we want to help you experience the benefits of targeted care that fits seamlessly into your routine.
Neurotoxins are purified proteins used in cosmetic treatments to temporarily reduce the activity of specific muscles. These proteins, derived from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, are carefully formulated to block nerve signals that trigger muscle contractions. By affecting the underlying muscle movement responsible for dynamic wrinkles, neurotoxins can create a smoother surface on the skin without affecting surrounding areas. This treatment is commonly used for forehead lines, crow’s feet, and frown lines between the eyebrows.
The mechanism behind neurotoxins involves temporarily interrupting the communication between nerves and muscles. When injected, the neurotoxin binds to nerve endings at the injection site, preventing the release of acetylcholine, a chemical responsible for signaling muscle contractions. Without this signal, the treated muscles remain in a relaxed state, which prevents the skin from folding and forming deep lines. The effects are localized, meaning only the injected muscles are affected, allowing other facial muscles to function normally for a natural look.
Neurotoxins are commonly used to treat the following:
Additionally, Neurotoxins are also used for eyebrow elevations, and is often used in conjunction with other facial contouring modalities such as Kybella, Juvederm, and other injectables.
A Nefertiti lift is a cosmetic treatment that uses neurotoxins to redefine the jawline and neck. By injecting neurotoxins along the jaw and into the platysma muscle, this treatment relaxes the downward pull of these muscles, creating a more lifted and smoother appearance in the lower face and neck. This non-surgical approach can help soften jowls and sharpen the jawline.
A lip flip is a subtle, non-surgical treatment that enhances the appearance of the upper lip using neurotoxins. We inject the neurotoxin into specific points around the lip. The muscles relax, causing the upper lip to gently roll outward. This technique gives the illusion of fuller lips without adding volume.
For those seeking a way to reduce dynamic wrinkles without surgery, neuromodulators are an ideal option. This treatment targets fine lines and wrinkles caused by repetitive facial expressions without invasive procedures. With a series of simple injections, you can achieve smoother skin and a more refreshed appearance.
A neuromodulator session is fast and convenient, often taking a few minutes to complete. You can easily fit a treatment into a lunch break or busy day without disrupting your schedule. The simplicity and speed of the process make it a great option for those with a packed lifestyle who still want effective results.
After a neuromodulator treatment, patients can typically return to their daily activities immediately. While some slight redness or swelling may occur at the injection sites, these effects usually subside quickly. This means you can go about your day without taking time off for recovery.
The temporary nature of neuromodulators gives patients more flexibility and control over their appearance. Results generally last around three to four months, allowing you to adjust and refine your treatments. This short-term effect also makes it easier to experiment with your look, knowing that adjustments can be made over time.
Beyond treating existing lines, neuromodulators can be used as a preventive measure against future wrinkles. By relaxing the muscles responsible for deepening lines, this treatment helps reduce the formation of new wrinkles, especially in areas prone to dynamic facial movements.
Neuromodulators have the ability to provide subtle, natural-looking improvements. When administered by a skilled professional with an eye for natural beauty, the results soften wrinkles without making the face appear frozen or overdone. This balance allows for a refreshed appearance that still looks like you—just a more rejuvenated version.
Get an instant youthful appearance with neurotoxin injections using treatments from top manufacturers such as Botox & Dysport!
Botox® is an FDA approved treatment that temporarily improves the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines between the brows, forehead wrinkles, and crows feet. Botox® works by partially paralyzing the muscles responsible for creating these lines. In time, this causes the wrinkles to fade thus providing a more youthful appearance.
Botox® is a naturally-occurring protein made by the bacteria Clostridium Botulinum. As Botox® is a relatively large molecule, it cannot be absorbed through the skin like many creams and other beauty products and must be injected.
It’s not a facial transformation—far from it. Dysport® treatment temporarily improves the look of your moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows in a way that suits your style. And no one will know—unless you tell them. Check out our gallery below and see for yourself.
Don’t let the frown lines between your eyebrows define you. For adults who want a natural look, Dysport® is a natural-looking, fast-acting, long-lasting prescription injection proven to help smooth moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows—without changing the look or movement of the rest of your face.
Before your first neuromodulator treatment, there won’t be much preparation since it is a straightforward treatment. However, we may have you adjust your current medications or supplements to help keep post-treatment bruising to a minimum. On the day of your treatment, keep your skin clean and free from products to make the process more streamlined. When you are here, we will talk about your goals and have you make facial expressions to see where your dynamic lines appear. From there, we can plan our injections more precisely and give you a more personalized treatment.
During your neuromodulator treatment, tiny injections will be made in specific facial muscles to help relax the dynamic movements that cause wrinkles. You will feel a pinch with each injection, and some locations of the face can be more tender than others. However, the process is well-tolerated by most patients and we can use strategies to make it less uncomfortable.
After your neuromodulator treatment, try not to rub or massage the injected area since this can cause unwanted spreading of the medication. Avoiding high temperatures such as hot tubs or saunas and keeping your exercise light for at least 24 hours can also help keep the results right where you want them. Minor swelling or redness may occur but should subside quickly.
Neuromodulator treatments aren’t just for women—men are increasingly turning to these injections to reduce the appearance of frown lines, forehead wrinkles, and crow’s feet. The approach for men is often slightly different, as the goal is usually to soften lines while maintaining a strong, masculine look. Whether you’re looking for subtle improvements or more dramatic changes, neuromodulators can help you achieve results that fit your lifestyle.
The term “neurotoxin” can be intimidating for some. However, these products have no systemic effects. Neurotoxins like Botox and Dysport are highly purified, used in very small doses, and specifically formulated for use in medical and cosmetic treatments. These substances have been extensively studied and approved by regulatory bodies like the FDA for various treatments. The effects of these purified proteins are localized and wear off after several months.
When administered correctly by an injector who understands facial anatomy, proper dosages, and patient individualities, neuromodulators will not freeze your facial expressions. The goal is to provide a balanced solution that treats wrinkles while still allowing sufficient natural movement in untreated areas. You’ll still be able to smile, frown, and express yourself, but the dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive muscle movements will be softened.
While neurotoxins are often associated with reducing existing wrinkles, many younger patients use them preventively to slow the formation of lines. Dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines and crow’s feet, start forming in the 20s and 30s. Preventative treatments can relax these muscles before deep lines set in, helping maintain smoother skin for longer.
While neurotoxins are well-known for treating wrinkles, they can also address several other concerns. They are frequently used to treat medical issues like excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), migraines, and TMJ (temporomandibular joint) pain. They are also used in treatments like the Nefertiti lift to contour the jawline, the lip flip to enhance lip shape, or a brow lift.
Results from neuromodulators don’t appear instantly but gradually develop over several days. Patients typically begin to see results within 48 hours, with the full outcome of the treatment taking effect 7-10 days following treatment. The exact timing may vary depending on individual factors, such as muscle strength and the specific areas treated.
Neuromodulators are a great option for individuals looking to soften dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive muscle movements, such as frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead wrinkles. Patients who are in good general health, not pregnant or breastfeeding, and have realistic expectations are typically ideal candidates. However, those with certain neurological conditions or muscle disorders may not be suitable for treatment. It’s important to discuss your medical history and cosmetic goals during a consultation to determine if neuromodulators are the right solution for you.
Each treatment session can take approximately 15-30 minutes to complete. The total time for treatment may differ patient to patient depending on the number of units required, the areas being treated, and any other treatments being performed.
Neurotoxin injections are performed using a fine needle. While everyone has a different pain tolerance, most patients report having virtually zero discomfort.
While the duration of results vary patient to patient, neurotoxin treatment results typically last 3-4 months on average. To maintain smoother, youthful skin follow-up treatment sessions are always scheduled in advance.
