Life is busy, and it often shows up on your face first. Between work, family, stress, and everything in between, it’s easy to start looking more tired or tense than you actually feel. At Althea Medical Spa, neuromodulator treatments are designed to help you look refreshed and at ease, while still looking like yourself. Care is provided by a doctorate-prepared Nurse Practitioner who understands both how faces move and how real life works. Our approach is gentle and thoughtful, focused on subtle changes that help you feel confident in the way you show up every day.
What Are Neuromodulators?
Neuromodulators, often called wrinkle relaxers, are injectable treatments that temporarily relax targeted facial muscles responsible for expression lines. By reducing repetitive muscle movement, these treatments soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and support smoother-looking skin over time. Neuromodulators work gradually, allowing the face to appear more relaxed while maintaining natural movement. This is a well-established approach to aesthetic care that prioritizes balance, precision, and individualized planning.
Our Neuromodulator Options
Botox®
Botox® is the most familiar and widely used wrinkle relaxer. It is often chosen by clients who want a proven option with consistent, predictable results. It works well for softening lines created by facial movement, such as forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet. Many clients appreciate Botox® because the results feel natural and follow a timeline that is well understood.
Daxxify®
Daxxify® is a newer wrinkle relaxer designed for clients who may experience longer-lasting results between treatments. While it works in a similar way to other neuromodulators, its formulation allows some patients to maintain smoother-looking skin for an extended period of time. It can be a good option for those who prefer fewer appointments while still prioritizing subtle, natural-looking outcomes.
Jeuveau®
Jeuveau® is often selected by clients looking for a modern alternative focused on aesthetic use. It is commonly used to treat expression lines such as frown lines and crow’s feet. It offers controlled muscle relaxation, making it a good choice for clients who want visible softening while keeping facial movement balanced and expressive.
