Achieve a Healthy-looking Skin With our Clinical-grade Neurotoxin Options

Your skin changes with age. When collagen and elastin fibers begin to break down, wrinkles develop, and your skin no longer looks smooth and plump as it once did. But what if we told you there is a way you can turn back the clock? the L.A.B. med spa in Southlake, Texas, offers different types of FDA-approved neurotoxins to stop wrinkles, fine lines and folds in their tracks. These injectables reduce your muscle activity level to minimize the formation of wrinkles. 

Common neurotoxins for skin care 

Your skin takes a lot of beating — some of which you can control and others beyond your control. Things like sun exposure can make your skin less elastic. Gravity can cause your skin to sag. Bad habits, such as smoking, can cause wrinkles to form. Additionally, aging can cause your skin to lose its radiance over time. Undoubtedly, your skin is subjected to various forms of stress from multiple sources.

Many products claim to make wrinkles go away. Most don’t work, and others can be harmful. Always talk to a qualified provider if worried about wrinkles. In our Southlake, Texas, practice, our team uses medical-grade neurotoxins to freshen your skin. 

Here’s what to know about different neurotoxins.

• Botox: OnabotulinumtoxinA, commonly known as Botox, has existed since 2002. The FDA approved this injectable to reduce moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines. Botox takes three to five days, sometimes up to two weeks, for the results to be visible. The effects last for three to four months before you need another boost.
• Dysport: Like Botox, Dysport (AbobotulinumtoxinA) has therapeutic abilities to reduce muscle spasticity. Since its FDA approval in 2009, doctors have used this injectable to reduce frown lines between eyebrows. And since Dysport has a high diffusion rate, it’s ideal for treating larger areas — think foreheads. The results last three to four months, although Dysport says the effects can last up to five months.
• Xeomin: IncobotulinumtoxinA (Xeomin) is injected into the muscles to treat abnormal spasms in the eyelids (blepharospasm) and involuntary contraction of the neck muscles. Additionally, the FDA has approved Xeomin to treat upper limb spasticity and chronic drooling in children and adults.
• Jeuveau: PrabotulinumtoxinA or Jeuveau was approved by the FDA in 2019 to treat moderate to severe glabellar lines — vertical lines that appear between your eyebrows.
• Daxxify: This neuromodulator is the newest kid on the block, approved by the FDA in 2022 to soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Similar to Botox and other neuromodulators, Daxxify is derived from a neurotoxin produced by botulinum toxin. However, unlike Botox, Jeuveau, and Dysport, Daxxify uses peptides instead of proteins or additives to stabilize it, allowing it to bind more quickly and persist longer than other neurotoxins. As a result, Daxxify has a longer-lasting effect of 5-6 months, compared to the typical 3-4 month duration of other neurotoxins.

Always consult a certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon, no matter the wrinkle-reducer injectable you think is the best.
