Alisha advocates for treatments that are clinically proven to be safe, backed by science, and visibly improve the skin’s overall appearance. Neuromodulators, such as botulinum toxin type A, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving the skin a smoother and more youthful look. Combining neuromodulators with other in-office treatments and medical grade skincare will exponentially yield the best results for clients.
Neuromodulators, such as Botox and Dysport, are suitable for those who are experiencing moderate to severe dynamic wrinkles around the eyes, on the forehead, and between the brows (common areas treated). This treatment is also indicated for those who want to take a “preventative” approach to deep wrinkle formation. Neuromodulators are safe for all skin types and skin tones (Fitzpatrick 1-6). The treatments are quick with no downtime needed!
Neuromodulators temporarily relax muscles by blocking nerve signals that cause muscle contraction, thus decreasing the appearance of wrinkles. The effects are temporary because nerve endings regenerate and muscles become active again, requiring repeated treatments to maintain results. While the upper face is the most requested area to treat, we treat smoker lines, bunny lines, brow lift, chin dimpling, downturned mouth lines, nose lift, flaring nostrils, neck bands, strong jaw muscles (TMJ), and even sweaty underarms (aka hyperhidrosis)!
