What are Neuromodulators?

Neuromodulators, also called neurotoxins, like Jeaveau®, Botox®, Xeomin® Dysport® and Daxxify®, are FDA-approved to minimize the appearance of fine lines and moderate to severe facial wrinkles. When used for cosmetic purposes, your medical professional injects a neurotoxin into specific muscles or nerves, temporarily paralyzing the muscles that cause fine lines and wrinkles.

Botox®, Xeomin®, and other neurotoxin treatments work by intercepting specific nerve signals responsible for muscle contractions. As they induce muscle relaxation, they reduce fine lines and wrinkles—and this well-aging paralytic effect typically lasts 3-4 months. Following this period, the treated muscles regain their mobility, and the facial wrinkles they cause begin to reappear.
