Aging is inevitable. But you don’t have to look it!
As we get older, we tend to get forehead lines, crow’s feet and wrinkles, especially if we spent a lot of time in the sun when we were younger. (And who didn’t?)
Also, typical facial expressions like smiling and frowning that cause the facial muscles to contract also lead to these fine lines and wrinkles becoming more permanent over time.
Fortunately, wrinkle relaxing treatments are a safe and effective way to help you address these common signs of aging.
What Are Wrinkle Relaxers?
To understand how wrinkle relaxers work, we first need to understand how wrinkles form.
You know how repeatedly folding a piece of paper leads to creases?
Similarly, facial expressions like smiling, frowning, and furrowing your eyebrows cause lines and wrinkles to appear in those areas on your face over time.
Basically, wrinkle relaxers contain neurotoxins that reduce the ability of facial muscles to contract. When the muscles contract less, the skin is also more relaxed, which leads to the softening of fine lines and wrinkles in the area treated.
There are several brands of wrinkle relaxers, but they all typically contain botulinum toxin as an active ingredient/neurotoxin. Sometimes, people refer to them as injectables because of how they’re administered.
Wrinkle relaxers are also a very popular option for busy people who want to look and feel their best, but don’t have the time for more invasive procedures that require a lot of downtime.
6 Reasons To Consider Wrinkle Relaxers
So, why are wrinkle relaxers so popular? Mostly because they present the following amazing benefits:
- Safe and effective. Wrinkle relaxers have long been used to help many patients achieve beautiful results.
They’re also FDA approved for cosmetic use. (And given how strict the FDA can be when it comes to these things, you can be sure that they are safe and effective!)
- Lasts for 3 to 4 months on average. Wrinkle relaxers can deliver significant results that can last for three to four months.
The results aren’t permanent, but scheduling your treatments at regular intervals can help you maintain your results – and a youthful appearance – for much longer!
- Natural-looking results. Some people are scared to try wrinkle relaxers because they’re scared it’ll make them look frozen.
But guess what? Highly-experienced injectors can help you achieve a very natural (and very beautiful) look with the right dosage of wrinkle relaxers injected into all the right places!
- No downtime. After the treatment, you can go back to your daily routine straightaway!
You may have side effects like bruising and slight redness, but these are normal and should subside after a few days.
- Quick and painless. The injection itself only takes minutes, and most patients consider the experience virtually painless.
- Affordable. Want to do something about those fine lines and wrinkles, but can’t afford anything invasive?
Wrinkle relaxers are more affordable compared to more invasive treatments, and they don’t require any surgery or anesthesia too!
In a nutshell, wrinkle relaxers are one of the most effective treatments that can soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles to provide patients with smoother and naturally youthful-looking skin.
