Key Takeaways


Options: Source Medical Aesthetics offers Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin, all FDA-approved neuromodulators that relax targeted facial muscles to reduce dynamic wrinkles.


Timeline: Full effect typically settles in about two weeks, with results lasting approximately three months.


Selection: Dr. Krever and her team tailor product selection to each patient's anatomy and expression patterns during consultation.

Botox

Do you furrow your brows unconsciously, when focusing or when stressed? In the same way that we may discover we are holding tension in our shoulders and neck at the end of a long day, we often contract and overuse muscles in our face without even realizing it.


Botox is an injectable neurotoxin that targets the facial muscles whose contractions cause facial lines. Botox may be administered as frequently as every 3 months depending on your specific needs.


At Source Medical Aesthetics  Botox is administered with precise injections, carefully relaxing specific muscles and reducing lines and restoring lift without compromising expression.

Dysport

We offer a multitude of treatment options to accommodate every type of patient and facial concern. Dysport has been used widely in Europe for 20+ years and received FDA approval for use in the US in 2009. While it works similarly to Botox, Dysport tends to spread a bit more after injection, which can make it a great choice for treating larger areas like the forehead, and many patients find it kicks in a little faster. Talk to Dr. Krever to find out which option is the best fit for you.

Xeomin

Xeomin is a popular muscle-relaxing, line-reducing treatment known for its uniquely purified formulation. It contains only the active ingredient, with the accessory proteins found in other products removed, resulting in a highly refined "naked" formula. This purity may help reduce the chance of developing resistance over time, while still delivering the smooth, refreshed, natural-looking results you'd expect. It's a perfect treatment for those new to injected wrinkle-relaxers or anyone looking for an effortless, fresh appearance.

Which Neuromodulator Is Right for You?


Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin all temporarily relax targeted facial muscles to soften dynamic wrinkles, but they differ in formulation, dosing, and how they may be used. Rather than choosing a product based on brand alone, your provider at Source Medical Aesthetics will recommend the appropriate neuromodulator based on your facial anatomy, treatment area, muscle movement, previous injectable experience, and aesthetic goals.

FAQS

Neuromodulators are injectable medications, such as botulinum toxin types, that temporarily relax targeted facial muscles. By reducing muscle activity, they soften dynamic wrinkles like:

- frown lines between the eyebrows

- crow's feet and around the eyes

- horizontal forehead lines

The result is a smoother, more refreshed appearance while preserving natural facial expressions when administered by an expert injector.

You'll typically notice the first signs within a few days, with most people seeing clearer improvement between days 5 and 14. Full effect usually settles in about two weeks. Changes continue to harmonize over the first week as the injected product takes full effect. 

The duration of effect is commonly around three to four months, though it can vary by individual injection area, product use, and your metabolism. Some patients notice longer-lasting results with consistent maintenance visits.
