Neuromodulators
Neuromodulators (Botox®, Xeomin®) are used in facial rejuvenation treatments to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles caused by muscle contraction. Neuromodulators rank number one in the field of cosmetic procedures worldwide, including in Canada.
Facial Treatment
What are neuromodulators?
Neuromodulators consist of a purified and diluted protein that is injected into the targeted muscles with the aim of reducing muscle contraction. This results in a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles while maintaining natural facial expressions. The result is a more youthful and relaxed appearance. Neuromodulator treatments are very safe and when properly administered in the right amounts and at the correct angles, give natural results.
