Frequently asked questions about the use of neuromodulators for wrinkles and fine lines

Neuromodulators are typically used on the forehead, around the eyes (crow’s feet), and between the eyebrows (frown lines). However, they can also treat wrinkles on other parts of the face, such as the chin and jawline.

Neuromodulators block signals from the nerves to the muscles, preventing them from contracting. This results in smoother skin and significantly reduces the appearance of wrinkles. The effects usually last 3-4 months before another treatment is needed.

Neuromodulators have been FDA-approved for cosmetic use since the early 2000s and have a long history of safety when given by trained professionals such as our California Skin and Laser Center team. Patients must always choose a reputable and experienced provider for any cosmetic treatment, including injectable services such as neuromodulators for wrinkles and fine lines.

Several advantages of neuromodulators set it apart from other injectable treatments and cosmetic plastic surgeries, including:

• Cost. Neuromodulators are a cost-effective way for patients on a budget to turn back the hands of time.
• Minimal downtime. Because the procedure takes only a few minutes, patients can return to their daily activities immediately after treatment.
• No surgery. Unlike many cosmetic surgeries, neuromodulators are entirely non-invasive and do not require any surgical incisions or anesthesia.
• Natural-looking results. When neuromodulators are administered by a trained professional such as Dr. Gerald N. Bock, patients can rest easy knowing their finished results will look as natural as possible.
• Lasting results. While neuromodulator injection therapy does not provide permanent changes, they can improve one’s appearance for several months before additional services are required.

Dr. Bock is a doctor who can provide services to patients in and around the area.
