Wrinkle Reduction
How do neurotoxins work?
The Rejuvenate aesthetic specialists offer innovative neurotoxins like Botox®, Dysport® and Xeomin® for wrinkle reduction, skin-tightening, and more.
Botox is derived from a toxin created by a bacterium called Clostridium botulinum. When injected into specific muscles in minor, diluted amounts, it weakens the muscles and blocks the signals from your nerves to the muscles. If your muscles can’t contract, your wrinkles soften and relax, smoothing and reducing their appearance.
Neurotoxins is a quick in-office treatment that only takes a few minutes and doesn’t require anesthesia. Your Rejuvenate specialist injects neurotoxins with a fine needle. There might be some mild and tolerable discomfort, but most people don’t report any. In many cases, your specialist can treat more than one area at the same time.
What can I expect after my neurotoxin treatment?
Many people don’t have any side effects following neurotoxins, but you might experience a mild headache that subsides shortly after or mild bruising that resolves within a couple of days. It’s essential you don’t irritate or rub the area for at least 12 hours after your treatment.
It can take anywhere from 3-7 days for you to notice the best results. Results can last up to six months or longer. Gradually, your muscle functioning comes back, and your wrinkles might return to some degree. Additional treatments can help you maintain your desired look.
While wrinkles can return, they’re never as visible as they were before. Neurotoxins can provide lasting and, in some cases, permanent wrinkle reduction.

What is Ultherapy®?
Ultherapy® is the only non-invasive procedure FDA cleared to lift skin on the neck, under the chin and on the eyebrow. Now also, FDA cleared to improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles on the decolletage, Ultherapy® can help to achieve a fresher look from the brow to your chest.
Ultherapy® is a skin-tightening treatment that uses ultrasound technology. The ultrasound waves can combat wrinkles, fine lines, scarring, and loose, sagging skin.
As you age, your skin can loosen and sag, and collagen and elastin production typically declines. Collagen and elastin are proteins primarily responsible for maintaining elasticity and tighter, younger-looking skin.
Your Rejuvenate specialist can perform this non-invasive treatment in the office using an ultrasound device to view the deep connective tissue and muscles below your skin. Due to the re-collagenation of the tissue, results usually come within 4-6 months of treatment date.
Who is a good candidate for skin tightening?
Most adults are good candidates for Ultherapy®, but the best candidates have lost some degree of skin elasticity and have clear, realistic goals and expectations about the outcomes.
