Smooth Away the Years

Neurotoxins like Botox, Dysport, and Letybo offer one of the most effective ways to reduce wrinkles and refresh your appearance. Quick treatments, minimal downtime, and results that help you look as vibrant as you feel.

What are Neurotoxins?

Neurotoxins are FDA-approved injectable treatments that temporarily relax the muscles responsible for creating wrinkles and fine lines. By softening repetitive facial movements, they smooth existing lines and prevent new ones from forming. Popular options like Botox, Dysport, and Letybo work quickly—often showing results within days—and provide natural-looking rejuvenation that lasts 3-4 months. Whether you're addressing forehead lines, crow's feet, or frown lines, neurotoxins deliver proven, predictable results with minimal discomfort and no downtime.

It is best to schedule Botox and Dysport at least two to four weeks before an event to allow time for treatment to take full effect and for any swelling or mild bruising to subside. There is minimal downtime with a Botox or Dysport procedure. Patients may experience very mild swelling or bruising near the injection sites. The procedure itself is quick, with a Botox or Dysport treatment taking 10-15 minutes to complete. To minimize bruising, avoid blood-thinning medication. One week prior to Botox or Dysport treatment, avoid aspirin, ibuprofen (generic, Advil, Aleve, or Motrin), Vitamin E, and fish oil or omega-3s. Also, avoid alcohol 48 hours prior to treatment. Drink plenty of fluids on the day of treatment.

In most cases, Dysport and Botox patients return to their normal routines the same day after their treatment. The muscles relax within a few days of the Botox or Dysport injection, causing wrinkles to either lessen or disappear completely. The muscles remain in a relaxed state for three to five months.Further Botox or Dysport treatment is necessary to erase returning wrinkles. After several treatments, the length of time that Botox is effective can increase, sometimes lasting up to eight months.

Aftercare tips

  • Avoid facials, rubbing, or massaging the injected area for 24 hours
  • Do not lie down for four hours after the procedure. Avoid lying on the front or stomach
  • Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours after the procedure. Light exercise can be continued four hours after the procedure
  • Keep the face and injected area clean for several hours after the procedure

FAQ'S

Botox, Dysport, and Letybo are all FDA-approved and have excellent safety profiles when administered by trained professionals. At Radiance at Fluhme, all treatments are performed under the supervision of board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Lori Cherup, ensuring the highest standards of safety and care.

All three are FDA-approved neurotoxins that work similarly to relax muscles and reduce wrinkles. Dysport tends to spread slightly more, making it ideal for larger areas like the forehead. Botox has the longest track record and is the most established brand. Letybo is a newer option offering comparable results at a competitive price point. Our team will recommend the best option for your specific needs during your consultation.

There's no specific age requirement. Some patients start in their mid-20s for preventative purposes, while others wait until lines become more visible in their 30s, 40s, or beyond. The right time is when you notice dynamic wrinkles (lines that appear with facial expressions) that bother you. We'll help you determine if treatment is right for you during your consultation.

Side effects are typically minimal and temporary. You may experience slight redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites, which usually resolves within a few hours to days. Rarely, patients report mild headaches. Serious complications are extremely rare when treatments are performed by experienced injectors.

Most neurotoxin treatments take just 10-15 minutes, making them perfect for a lunch break or quick appointment. There's no preparation required, and you can return to your normal activities immediately afterward.

No downtime is required. Most patients return to work and regular activities immediately after treatment. We recommend avoiding strenuous exercise for 24 hours and not lying down for 4 hours after treatment to ensure optimal results.

You'll begin to notice improvement within 3-7 days, with full results visible around 2 weeks post-treatment. For special events, we recommend scheduling your appointment at least 2 weeks in advance.

Results typically last 3-4 months, though duration varies based on individual metabolism, treatment area, and muscle strength. Many patients schedule maintenance appointments every 3-4 months to maintain their refreshed appearance. With consistent treatment, some find results last slightly longer over time.
