Neuromodulators in Houston, TX

Neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport, and Jeuveau are popular cosmetic treatments that work by temporarily paralyzing the muscles in the face. These neuromodulators are made from a purified form of botulinum toxin, a neurotoxin that blocks the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that is responsible for muscle contraction. By blocking the release of acetylcholine, these neuromodulators effectively paralyze the muscles in the face, which leads to a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

Botox, Dysport, and Jeuveau are all FDA-approved and are considered to be safe and effective treatments for wrinkles and fine lines. They are commonly used to treat wrinkles and lines around the forehead, eyes, and eyebrows. The effects of these neuromodulators typically last for several months, after which the treatment will need to be repeated.

Botox, Dysport, and Jeuveau are all effective neuromodulators that can provide excellent results for the treatment of wrinkles and fine lines. These treatments are safe, easy, and can be performed on an outpatient basis. They can be used to achieve a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance and are a great way to improve self-confidence and self-esteem.

Benefits

The Treatment

FAQ
Botox is a purified protein. Botox is the only FDA-approved prescription medicine that temporarily improves the appearance of moderate-to-severe forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet at the corner of the eyes. Botox is for use in adults.

Injecting Botox is one of the most common nonsurgical procedures performed. Botox is commonly used for wrinkle reduction and prevention, facial slimming, hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating in the underarms and palms), and softening the appearance of platysmal neck bands (vertical banding that becomes more visible as we age). 

In addition to its very popular cosmetic uses, Botox is used medically to treat:

  • Migraines – severe throbbing headaches often associated with nausea or light sensitivity
  • Blepharospasm – involuntary closing of the eyelids
  • Strabismus – lack of eye alignment, cross-eyed or wall-eyed
  • Overactive Bladder – urinary leakage, urgency, and frequency
  • Spasticity – continuous contraction of muscles, often associated with other syndromes and conditions such as multiple sclerosis (MS). 
  • Bruxism – grinding/clenching of the masseter muscles

The day you receive Botox treatment, you usually will not see any visible results. The initial onset of Botox results takes a few days. “Full effect” develops in about two weeks.

On average, the results from Botox treatment last about three months. The length of effectiveness depends on your body’s metabolism, treatment location, and the amount of Botox used.

We customize each Botox treatment to the needs and desired outcomes of each patient. It is impossible, and not fair to the patient, for a provider to say “how much” someone will need without seeing them in person and discussing their cosmetic goals.

No aesthetic nurse, doctor, or patient knows how much Botox is needed until a thorough aesthetic treatment plan is discussed. We do not expect you to know what you need. That’s our job!

The puzzle of what cosmetic treatments and how much product you need is best solved together. During your consultation, we will work together to devise a treatment plan to best suit your aesthetic goals.
