What Are Neurotoxins?
BOTOX® Cosmetic and Dysport® are a category of injectables called neurotoxins that are used to diminish fine lines such as crow’s feet, furrows between your brows, and forehead lines. Neurotoxins are injected to inhibit nerve transmission to specific facial muscles, allowing the muscle to relax and smooth out. It inhibits the muscle from contracting, which reduces visibility of those pesky wrinkles. Results will be seen as early as 3-5 days - full impact can be seen around 10-14 days. After 3-4 months, neurotoxins will need to be repeated as receptors are no longer blocked and muscles begin to regain activity.
