Neuromodulator injections refer to a type of cosmetic treatment involving the use of neurotoxins, such as botulinum toxin type A. The most common brand names associated with this treatment are Botox, Jeuvau, Dysport, and Xeomin. These injections are used to temporarily reduce or eliminate facial lines and wrinkles by targeting the muscles responsible for creating them.
When injected into specific muscles, neuromodulators block the nerve signals that cause those muscles to contract. As a result, the muscles relax, which can smooth out wrinkles and lines on the skin’s surface. Neuromodulators are commonly used to address frown lines, crow’s feet, forehead lines, and other facial wrinkles.
It’s essential to receive these injections from a qualified healthcare professional like providers at Aesthetic Collective because improper administration can lead to undesired results. While these injections are primarily used for cosmetic purposes, they also have medical applications, such as treating migraines, muscle spasms, and certain medical conditions related to muscle contractions.
