The Cause of Dynamic Wrinkles

Dynamic wrinkles are caused by your muscles pulling at the skin when you make facial expressions. Thanks to the presence of collagen, your skin is very elastic… like anything stretchy, it starts to lose its “snap” over time. Eventually, the usage of your facial muscles effectively breaks down collagen, and your skin loses its ability to spring back to its normal, smooth shape.

When this happens, your expression lines become “etched” into your skin. The good news? These wrinkles are both preventable and treatable with BOTOX! Since the cause of this aging is directly related to the usage of your facial muscles, we can address these lines and wrinkles by relaxing them, which also prevents new lines from forming in the future.

An Impressively Versatile Treatment

In addition to effectively treating wrinkles around the eyes and forehead, BOTOX can also create a lovely non-surgical brow lift, reduce “bunny lines” on your nose, and more. Within a week of your treatment, you’ll notice a gradual and natural improvement in the presence of moderate to severe wrinkles. Lines will continue to improve for up to a month, and your results should last between three and four months. Even better, since BOTOX relaxes the muscles that cause lines to form in the first place, getting regular treatments can effectively hit the “pause” button on the aging process.

Where BOTOX Can Help You

Only dynamic wrinkles (those caused by the movement of the facial muscles) respond to BOTOX injections, with wrinkles on the forehead and around the eyes being the most responsive. Our BOTOX is a great way to address:

  • Forehead lines
  • 11 lines between your eyebrows
  • Sagging, furrowed brow
  • Crow’s Feet
  • Bunny lines along the sides of your nose
  • “Smoker’s” lines
  • Platysmal bands (lines on the neck)
  • Excessive sweating under the arms
  • Jaw pain caused by teeth clenching and grinding

How BOTOX Works Its Magic

When very low doses of neuromodulators are administered directly into the overactive muscles that cause lines to form, they relax those muscles, which causes the lines to melt away. After a treatment with BOTOX you can frown, smile, or look surprised—without the furrows, creases, and wrinkles etching into your skin.

What Can I Expect from My Treatment?

Before your treatment, we’ll discuss your goals and areas of concern, so your practitioner can create an injection pattern that is tailored directly to your concerns. Some patients choose to numb the area with a cold pack prior to injecting. The entire procedure takes approximately 10 minutes. Discomfort is minimal and brief—most patients compare the sensation to a bug bite. There’s no downtime and most patients return to work or their normal activities. 

We recommend applying a cold compress to the treatment area to help reduce any soreness or residual swelling. Some patients experience minor redness or bruising, but these are easily concealed with makeup. Within days of receiving your BOTOX, you’ll notice improvement to the treatment area. The most common side effects are mild bruising at the injection site. Temporary drooping of the eyelids, headaches, and flu-like symptoms are rare side effects of the treatment. These side effects are never permanent and will reverse in a few weeks.

"Mallory Schafer RN is very precise, professional, compassionate and conservative in her work. You will look beautiful and rested after a session with Mallory. I would highly recommend her. Her application of Botox was the most precise and artistic I've ever had."

FAQ

Will BOTOX prevent new lines and wrinkles from forming?

Is this procedure safe?

Are the injections painful?

Will my lines look worse if I don’t continue my treatments?

Is one neuromodulator brand better?

How much do BOTOX treatments cost?

Will BOTOX prevent new lines and wrinkles from forming?

Yes! One of the most remarkable things about BOTOX is that not only does it reduce the appearance of existing lines, but it also prevents the formation of new ones…effectively “stopping the clock” on part of the aging process.

Is this procedure safe?

BOTOX has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of conditions from severe muscles spasms to migraine headaches. Neuromodulators have been used for more than 40 years with no long-term side effects.

Are the injections painful?

Your Botox in Denver is performed with a very fine needle, and most people compare it to a small “pinch” or bug bite.

Will my lines look worse if I don’t continue my treatments?

No. If you choose to stop treatment, your lines will gradually revert to their pre-treatment appearance.

Is one neuromodulator brand better?

No, Dr. Waples compares different neuromodulator brands as Coke and Pepsi. Here at RESTOR, we carry Dysport, Xeomin, and BOTOX neurotoxins. Our skilled injectors will help you decide which brand is best for you at the time of your visit.

How much do BOTOX treatments cost?

The cost of BOTOX includes not only the cost of the product but also the skill and expertise of the RESTOR Registered Nurse who is your injector. BOTOX treatments at RESTOR are priced by zone - so the price for each area injected will always be the same regardless of how much or little product is required to reach your goals. At RESTOR, we offer membership plans that allow our patients to enjoy discounts on treatments (including BOTOX) based on their membership level.

Your Recovery and Results

You should not engage in strenuous exercise for the first 24 hours after your treatment. Avoid anything that applies direct pressure to the injected area, such as tight hats, ski or swim goggles, or massage tables for 24 hours. Avoid blood thinners such as ibuprofen, aspirin, or red wine for 24 hours, as these can make bruising more likely. We recommend getting your BOTOX quarterly and will work with you to set up a treatment schedule that works alongside your existing routine.
