Botox/Xeomin/Letybo: Cosmetic and Medical Treatments

Neuromodulators, such as Botox, are treatments designed to temporarily improve wrinkles and fine lines by relaxing the muscles beneath the skin. Administered via injections, these agents block muscle signals, resulting in a smoother, more refreshed skin surface. Common areas treated include forehead lines, crow’s feet around the eyes, and frown lines between the eyebrows. The non-surgical service and sessions are relatively quick, making it a convenient option for those seeking to reduce signs of aging.
Botox and the neuromodulator medications (Xeomin, Letybo) are suitable for adults who want to reduce the signs of aging and achieve a more youthful appearance. Results are typically visible within a few days, with optimal effects apparent after about two weeks. The benefits of a single treatment can last from three to four months, after which repeated treatments are recommended to maintain the results. We offer expert consultations for those interested in exploring the benefits of Botox and the family of neuromodulators. Contact us today to schedule your appointment.

Benefits of Neuromodulators

FAQ

Neuromodulators are injectable treatments that contain botulinum toxin, such as Botox, Xeomin and Letybo which relaxes muscles by blocking nerve signals. This reduction in muscle activity smooths out the skin and decreases wrinkles

Neuromodulators are commonly applied to treat wrinkles on the forehead, crow’s feet around the eyes, and frown lines between the eyebrows. They can also be used on other areas of the face and neck to create a smoother appearance.

A typical neuromodulator session lasts about 10 to 15 minutes, depending on how many areas are being treated. The quick procedure does not require any downtime, so patients can return to work immediately afterward.

Results from neuromodulator treatments like Botox/Xeomin/Letybo usually begin to appear within 5-7 days, with full effects visible after about two weeks.

First-time patients have a shorter treatment time of 7-10 weeks.  With repeated treatments, the average treatment longevity is 3-4 months in most treatment areas.

Side effects from neuromodulators are generally mild and can include temporary bruising, swelling at the injection site, or a slight headache. These symptoms typically resolve quickly. Side effects that are more severe are rare, but they can be discussed during your consultation.
