Antiwrinkle Treatments
Botox® / Dysport / Nuceiva
Botox® and Dysport and Nuceiva, popular injectable treatments offered at Nurse Cathy Douglas in Toronto, Ontario, present a non-surgical solution to combat wrinkles and fine lines, delivering results that rejuvenate the facial appearance.
Functioning by obstructing nerve signals to the muscles, these treatments effectively relax the targeted muscles, thereby diminishing the appearance of wrinkles on the skin’s surface. The mechanism involves the Botulinum Toxin Injections, which temporarily paralyzes the muscles, preventing them from contracting and causing wrinkles to appear smoother. Common treatment areas include foreheads, crow’s feet, and between the eyebrows (frown lines). Botox Injections and Dysport and Nuceiva can address concerns like eyebrow lifting and reducing neck bands.
Ideal candidates for Botox and Dysport and Nuceiva in Toronto , Ontario are individuals wishing to address visible signs of aging without undergoing surgery. These treatments are suitable for healthy adults bothered by wrinkles and fine lines and exhibit realistic expectations about the outcomes. Typically, results from Botox® or Dysport and Nuceiva injections manifest within a few days to a week post-treatment, reaching their full effect within two weeks. The longevity of results varies but generally lasts around three to four months before gradually dissipating. Although side effects of Toronto Botox are minimal, including temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites, it’s advisable to avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements before treatment to minimize bruising risk. Post-treatment care involves refraining from rubbing or massaging the treated areas and abstaining from strenuous exercise for the remainder of the day or postural changes such as lying down for 3 hours following procedure.
