Rejuvenate Your Appearance Today
As we age, our skin naturally loses its elasticity, developing fine lines and wrinkles. While this is a completely normal part of the aging process, it can be frustrating and affect our confidence. That’s where anti-wrinkle injections come in. Book your consultation to get started.
Led by Dr. Steury, we prioritize your comfort and satisfaction above all else. Our team is dedicated to providing you with the highest quality cosmetic care, and we will work with you every step of the way to ensure your treatment plan meets your unique needs.
How Anti-wrinkle Injections Work
Also known as botulinum toxin injections or tox treatment, anti-wrinkle injections are a popular cosmetic treatment used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. They are a non-surgical, minimally invasive option that can help you look and feel your best.
The injections work by targeting the underlying muscle activity that causes wrinkles. The treatment involves injecting a purified protein into specific facial muscles. This protein temporarily relaxes the muscles, reducing their movement and preventing the formation of wrinkles.
Your Treatment Session
At Magnolia Dentistry, our experienced doctor will work with you to design a treatment plan that targets your specific areas of concern. The treatment process is quick and simple, typically taking only a few minutes to complete.
First, Dr. Steury will assess your skin and determine the best injection sites to target your wrinkles. Then, a small amount of the protein is injected directly into the targeted muscles using a fine needle. The treatment is generally well-tolerated, and there is no downtime required afterward.
The Benefits of Facial Rejuvenation
The benefits of anti-wrinkle injections are numerous. Not only do they reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, but they also prevent new wrinkles from forming. The treatment is also highly customizable, meaning our team can adjust the injection sites and dosage to achieve your desired results.
In addition to their cosmetic benefits, anti-wrinkle injections can also be used to treat a variety of medical conditions, such as migraines, excessive sweating, and muscle spasms.
