What Are Injectable Neurotoxins?

An ideal option for treating dynamic wrinkles, neurotoxins can restore a more youthful appearance. The procedure is highly effective, dramatically lessening visible signs of aging and often taking years off a patient’s face. Anti-wrinkle injections temporarily minimize and eliminate facial lines and creases by obstructing the nerve impulses to the muscles responsible for them.

Lesser-Known Uses for Neurotoxin in the Body:

  • Trapezius Muscles: Used to promote lengthening and create a slimming effect in the neck and shoulders, contributing to a more graceful silhouette.
  • Calves: Injected to reduce the size and bulk of the calf muscles, resulting in a slimmer and more contoured lower leg appearance.
  • Underarms, Hands, and Feet: Applied to these areas to effectively eliminate excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), enhancing comfort and confidence.
  • Neck Area: Used to smooth crepey or wrinkled skin on the neck, improving skin texture and offering a rejuvenated look.

Treatments take about 15 minutes from start to finish and most clients don’t have issues with pain, as the needles we use are extremely tiny. The recovery period after treatment is very minimal, making this an ideal lunch time or right before work treatment.

Treatment Areas

Injectable neurotoxins can relax wrinkles wherever muscle activity is involved, including:

  • Frown lines (i.e., the “eleven” lines between your brow)
  • Wrinkles around the delicate eye area
  • Lines around the corners of your mouth
  • Forehead creases

The best thing about neurotoxin treatments at Elite Aesthetics is that they are totally customizable. We will inject in such a way that you can have more or less movement depending on your preference. Because we are so attuned to fine detail, our skilled professionals will provide you with an in depth consultation of past history and desired results, and then recommend the most ideal type of neurotoxin for you. We also recommend the maintenance schedule you can expect in order to facilitate long term results. You can expect neurotoxin injections to generally last anywhere from three to six months. We want what you want in terms of result! Specializing in facial harmony, Elite Aesthetics guides you toward improvements you’ll appreciate each and every day.

Who is a good candidate for treatment? 

Both Men and women. The ideal time to start neurotoxin injections is just before you start to notice fine lines on the skin at rest, around the eyes, forehead, and between the brows. It’s hard to predict exactly when this will be, as it’s different for everyone due to skin thickness, muscle strength, and other factors.

Who wouldn’t want a rejuvenated appearance? Elite Aesthetics offers effective results and swift recovery time, allowing you to go on about your day. Mariesa and her team draw from an expensive background in neurotoxin, natural collagen injectables, and dermal fillers. Our practice is designed around the enhancement of natural beauty and a refreshed, more vibrant appearance through non-invasive procedures. For facial aesthetic treatments, convenient scheduling, and the care and comfort that inspires confidence, call or text us at 212-647-1930.
