What Are Wrinkle Relaxers?
A wrinkle relaxer is a noninvasive injectable treatment utilized to treat lines and creases that show up as a result of regular muscle movement. It may help diminish signs of aging, such as forehead lines, Crow's feet near the eyes, and "11" lines between the brows. Wrinkle relaxers utilize a purified form of botulinum toxin type A that temporarily blocks movement in the facial muscles. Over time, the presence of wrinkles is lessened while the skin has a chance to recuperate and rejuvenate naturally. At NuMe Aesthetics, we offer multiple brands of wrinkle relaxers, such as BOTOX® Cosmetic, Dysport®, and XEOMIN®, to help address your individual concerns. Our team is extensively skilled in producing natural-looking results with wrinkle relaxer injections at our Seattle, WA practice.
What Is A Wrinkle Relaxer Treatment Like?
During a thorough examination at our Seattle, WA practice, our team will go over which wrinkle relaxer selection is best for you and your cosmetic goals. We carry out wrinkle relaxer treatments as an in-office treatment that can be carried out during the same visit as your consultation. You might be asked to make various facial expressions using the top part of your face. This allows us to deliver the treatment at the appropriate site. First, we prepare the skin, mark the treatment sites, and use a fine needle to deliver your injections. To minimize tenderness and swelling, we apply a cold compress immediately following the treatment. Depending on the formula type and number of injections, your treatment could last close to 10 – 15 minutes, after which you may go back to your usual routine.
Types of Wrinkle Relaxers
- BOTOX Cosmetic: BOTOX temporarily diminishes the appearance of moderate to severe forehead creases, Crow's feet, and frown lines. It is a purified type A strain of botulinum toxin and functions to temporarily "freeze" the facial muscles that assist with those contractions, allowing the skin to rebound on its own. The BOTOX formula will be injected into the specified areas of your forehead or face using a fine needle. BOTOX takes around ten minutes to complete, and many clients experience only slight discomfort (like a pinprick or pinching feeling).
- Dysport: This injectable wrinkle treatment smooths dynamic lines and creases throughout the face, such as glabellar lines between the eyes. Much like BOTOX, Dysport uses a filtered form of type A botulinum toxin to temporarily relax or block signals to particular muscles in your face. As soon as these muscle groups are treated, the frequent movements that result in dynamic wrinkles will be stopped, and the overlying skin will be tightened. This allows you to smile, frown, and make many different facial expressions without causing dynamic wrinkles. It also creates rejuvenated outcomes that won't make you look "overdone."
- XEOMIN: Much like BOTOX, this injectable wrinkle relaxer treatment relaxes the facial muscles with a purified strain of botulinum toxin type A so your dynamic wrinkles appear smoother and softer. It can help if you want to improve the appearance of dynamic wrinkles on the face, including frown lines between the eyebrows, horizontal lines on the forehead, Crow's feet in the outer corners of the eyes, and smile and laugh lines.
Who is a Candidate for Wrinkle Relaxers?
Wrinkle relaxer injections work well for anyone who wants to soften the appearance of wrinkles without undergoing cosmetic surgery. Sometimes younger individuals in their 20s seek out BOTOX® to prevent signs of aging from even occurring. Our expert team at NuMe Aesthetics will review your unique facial features and help determine which products will work best for your case. If you have deep-set creases or folds, a dermal filler may be recommended to complement your injections. Ideal candidates are in generally good health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations for their results.
What Are the Advantages of Wrinkle Relaxers?
Furrows and creases on your brow and between your eyes can cause you to look older than you really are. Wrinkle relaxers are beneficial to help diminish the appearance of these issues by briefly limiting the capacity to make facial movements. A wrinkle relaxer treatment at NuMe Aesthetics provides additional advantages for Seattle, WA individuals, namely:
- Temporarily preventing future wrinkles
- Creating a newly rested appearance
- No recovery time is involved after your appointment
- Simple, nonsurgical option
- Outcomes look natural and can persist for as long as 3 – 4 months
- Addressing forehead wrinkles, Crow's feet, and frown lines around the eyes
NuMe Aesthetics Reviews
Dr. Kevin is outstanding! He delivers results and is very patient hearing my concerns. He is incredibly professional explaining the process and the treatment plan. Vicky is also amazing! I highly recommend NuMe Aesthetics!
I had a wonderful dermal plane facial with Taylor a few weeks ago and can’t wait to return for another service. The location was easy to find with lots of parking, and the minute the door opens you’re relaxed by the light and bright interior. The service room was cozy cute and sparkling clean. I really enjoyed chatting with Taylor while she worked her magic on my stubborn post partum pores. I left feeling like a new woman and my skin sparkled for weeks. I would 100% recommend this service to anyone looking to make a high impact to their skin with no pain or downtime. Dermal planing is just amazing and so is Taylor!
If you’re in need of a great brow service you have to see Taylor! Taylor is easy to talk to, does phenomenal work, and listens to her clients and helps them meet their goals. The space is almost as beautiful as Taylor herself. Highly recommend a visit with her❤️
Jasmine was absolutely wonderful to work with and is great at what she does! This was my first time getting Botox- she walked me through the options, recommendations, expectations and made it so easy and exciting! Absolutely will be going back and highly highly recommend!
The service here is exceptional. The staff greets you warmly and takes the time to understand your needs. Their expertise shines through. They're not just skilled professionals; they're passionate about enhancing your natural beauty. Speaking of which, the quality of work at NuMe is top-notch. I recently had a treatment, and the results were beyond my expectations. My skin felt rejuvenated, and the effects lasted for weeks. It's evident that they use premium products and techniques that deliver real results. Overall, my experience at NuMe Aesthetics was delightful. It's a place where attention to detail matters, and they excel in every aspect. I would highly recommend this to anyone seeking a moment of beauty and relaxation in the midst of urban life.

What Should I Expect After Wrinkle Relaxer Treatment?
After your wrinkle relaxer treatment, you can return to your daily schedule; still, you will need to avoid strenuous activities for at least 24 hours. For the first few days, you will need to abstain from handling your face, as this could accidentally circulate the formula to other areas. The treatment areas could become red, swollen, or tender, but your symptoms should disappear in a matter of days. Depending on the formula we used, your new appearance could take several days to be seen. Most patients enjoy results lasting as long as four months, but the actual length of your results will differ slightly based on the make-up and amount of relaxer used. Before you leave, our staff will provide comprehensive aftercare tips and discuss when to arrange further appointments.
Wrinkle Relaxer FAQ
How many wrinkle relaxer units/injections will be required?
The number of wrinkle relaxer doses needed can differ according to your concerns and the depth of your facial wrinkles and lines. Our cosmetic injectors can recommend the appropriate quantity of injections, focusing on your desired beauty outcomes and whether you want to treat Crow's feet, the brow, or between the eyes. To get the most out of your newly restored look, your provider might suggest getting treatments every 3 – 4 months apart at NuMe Aesthetics.
Are wrinkle relaxer treatments painful?
As with most injectable therapies, patients will experience a light pinprick sensation as the treatment is given. This feeling only lasts several seconds, so many patients say that this brief discomfort is quite bearable. Our team will help ensure you remain relaxed throughout your treatment. If needed, we can offer an anesthetic ointment to make your injections more pleasant.
What's the difference between dermal fillers and wrinkle relaxers?
Wrinkle relaxers and dermal fillers help create a youthful appearance but function differently. Wrinkle relaxers, such as BOTOX, temporarily paralyze the muscles in your face to help diminish fine lines and wrinkles. Dermal fillers, on the other hand, add fullness to recessed parts of the face and fill out deep-set creases. Our team will be able to talk more about the benefits of dermal fillers and wrinkle relaxers at an appointment at our Seattle, WA practice.
