What is the Anti-Wrinkle Treatment with Neuromodulators?
It is a medical-aesthetic procedure that uses safe neuromodulators to relax, in a controlled manner, the muscles responsible for expression lines. Type A neuromodulators, which are fully compatible with the human body, are used to significantly reduce lines that appear with facial expressions. These wrinkles, called dynamic wrinkles, appear with facial gestures and movements due to the repeated contraction of the muscles.
At Capilo Innovación, we apply this technique precisely and safely, achieving natural, fresh, and harmonious results without altering facial expression.
Where does it apply?
It is generally used on the upper third of the face:
- Forehead
- Frown
- Chicken feet
In addition, it has other very effective applications:
- Treatment for gummy smile and bruxism (masseter muscle hypertrophy)
- Definition of mandibular contour
- Platysmal bands (neck)
- Excessive sweating in armpits, palms of the hands, and soles of the feet
Benefits of Anti-Wrinkle Treatment with Neuromodulators
- The results last approximately 3 to 6 months.
- It is an ideal complement for facial rejuvenation, achieving smoother and fresher skin.
- A safe, effective and preventative procedure, as it helps to delay the premature appearance of new expression lines.
- It does not deform the face, as it does not add volume nor does it accumulate in the body.
- The loss of effect is gradual: the muscle slowly recovers its ability to contract, without risk of sudden setback or worsening.
- With the appropriate technique, it is possible to preserve naturalness and facial expressiveness, since it only acts on the muscles in the treated area, avoiding total paralysis.
- It does not cause disability, allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately after the procedure.
When are the results visible and how often is the treatment recommended?
The effects begin to be noticeable between the third and fifth day, reaching the final result around day 15.
The effect lasts approximately 3 to 6 months, depending on each patient’s condition. For
better long-term results, it is recommended to have the treatment every 4 to 6 months, avoiding longer intervals between sessions. This allows for:
- Boost results.
- Reduce maintenance costs.
- Prolong the duration of the effect over time.
It is essential to first attend a medical evaluation appointment. Our medical staff at Capilo determines the areas to be treated, the number of units needed, and each patient’s suitability for the procedure, guaranteeing safety and natural-looking results.
