Neuromodulators
Are you starting to hear comments like "Why do you look so mad?" and "Did you sleep well last night?" Dr. Atkins is here to help with neuromodulators aka "Botox" that keep fine lines and wrinkles at bay while preventing future ones from forming. These crease-reducing wonders limit the active movement available in day to day facial expressions. The reduction of fine lines and wrinkles in certain areas like the forehead, glabellar, and crow's feet can be seen anywhere between two and seven days. In limiting movement and providing lift in the upper region of the face, patients often hear that it makes them look less tired and overall happier! A small amount of neuromodulator is injected into the underlying muscle. This causes the relaxation of the muscle for up to an average of 4 months. There are several different types of neuromodulators that differ in there molecular structure such as Botox, Dysport, Jeuveau, and Xeomin. Every patient has different neural receptors, which is why we offer different products that work differently for every patient. During your in-depth consultation, your provider will decide which product is best for you. Dr. Atkins has been injecting for almost 20 years and knows neuromodulators like the back of her hand. The Art of Botox is based on the injector and with our physician only injector you are sure to have a great experience.

What are the side effects and downtime?

What should I expect?
Botox Cosmetic is the most researched drug on the market. Dr. Debra Atkins uses a tiny needle to place the liquid, that contains Botox® or another neuromodulator, just below the skin to target the appropriate muscle for achieve the best results. The needle is so small most people do not complain of discomfort. If, however, you are the sensitive type, we do offer topical numbing agents.
