Injectables work by either relaxing the muscles that cause wrinkles or by filling in lines and wrinkles. Injectables, like Botox, can help to smooth out forehead lines, crow’s feet, and other types of wrinkles. They typically last for four to six months before you need to have another treatment.
Here’s a look at some of the most popular types of injectables:
Botox
Botox is a popular injectable that is used to smooth out wrinkles. It is perhaps the most well-known type of injectable. It is made from botulinum toxin, which is a neurotoxin that temporarily paralyzes muscles. It works by temporarily paralyzing the muscles in your face, which gives your skin a smoother appearance.
Dysport
Dysport is another injectable that is used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles. It is similar to Botox in that it is made from botulinum toxin and works by temporarily paralyzing muscles. However, Dysport may be more effective at treating crow’s feet. It can also take effect more quickly than Botox.
Xeomin
Xeomin is most effectively used to treat crow’s feet. It is made from botulinum toxin type A, which is a purified protein that temporarily relaxes muscle activity. Xeomin is injected into the muscles around the side of the eyes to treat crow’s feet lines. It works by blocking nerve impulses to the injected muscles. This reduces muscle activity that can cause moderate to severe lines to form around the eyes.
Jeuveau
Jeuveau works best on patients who want to improve the appearance of their forehead wrinkles. It is a newer and highly effective injectable. It is also made with botulinum toxin type A. This results in a reduction of movement-related wrinkles. It is primarily used to treat crow’s feet, bunny lines, and neck bands.
