Five reasons why patients choose neurotoxin injections for the treatment of aging facial skin
There are several treatment options available for patients in the Southlake, Texas area who want to address aging concerns in their facial skin. One of the most popular and effective treatments is neurotoxin injections, also known as botulinum toxin injections. At The L.A.B. Med Spa, our providers can educate patients on neurotoxin injections and their many advantages, especially when compared to alternative treatments such as plastic surgery.
What are neurotoxins and how do they work at turning back the hands of time?
Popular injections such as Botox are considered neurotoxins or neuromodulators. They are best used cosmetically for the treatment of dynamic wrinkles which are caused by muscle tension. This can smooth away imperfections on aging skin for many months before reinjection is needed. This is because the injections reduce muscle contractions responsible for the formation of these particular wrinkles, including those on the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes–commonly known as “crow’s feet.”
Five reasons why patients choose neurotoxin injections for the treatment of aging facial skin
Here are five reasons why our patients at The L.A.B. Med Spa choose this type of treatment:
- Non-invasive procedure. Unlike surgical elective procedures such as facelifts, neurotoxins are minimally invasive as they only require fast and easy injections into the facial skin.
- Fast and convenient treatment. Neurotoxin injections can be completed in a matter of minutes, making it a great choice for busy individuals who might not have time in their schedules for downtime and recovery associated with plastic surgery.
- Minimal downtime. Patients will get right back to their daily activities immediately after their procedure, with minimal discomfort or bruising.
- Effective and long-lasting results. Neurotoxins provide visible improvement in the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines for several months after treatment.
- Safe and FDA-approved. Neurotoxins have been extensively studied and are considered a safe option for cosmetic treatments by the FDA. In fact, Botox has been approved for decades for both medical and cosmetic uses.
- Versatility. In addition to addressing aging concerns, neurotoxin injections can also be utilized for certain medical purposes such as treating migraines, excessive sweating, or involuntary muscle spasms.
