BOTOX®, Dysport® & XEOMIN® in Orland Park and Frankfort, IL

Wrinkle relaxers use purified forms of botulinum toxin type A to temporarily reduce the movement of specific facial muscles that create expression lines. As those muscles relax, the overlying skin becomes smoother, helping soften the appearance of wrinkles while still allowing for natural facial expressions.

BOTOX®, Dysport®, and XEOMIN® can help soften expression lines, including forehead wrinkles, frown lines between the eyebrows, and crow’s feet. Depending on the product and your individual needs, wrinkle relaxers may also be used for bunny lines, lip lines, chin dimpling, and neck bands. Your provider will evaluate your concerns and recommend a personalized treatment plan.

Wrinkle relaxer results typically last around 3–4 months, although individual results vary. Maintenance treatments are often scheduled every 3–4 months, depending on the product, treatment area, and individual response. Your provider Midwest Medical Weight Loss & Aesthetics can recommend a personalized schedule based on your goals.

BOTOX, Dysport, and XEOMIN all work by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles. While they contain different formulations and may vary slightly in how quickly results appear or how they spread within treated tissues, each is highly effective.

• BOTOX Cosmetic is the most widely recognized wrinkle relaxer and is commonly used to treat forehead lines, frown lines, and Crow's feet. It offers predictable, natural-looking results and remains the most popular choice for many patients.
• Dysport spreads a little more easily after injection, making it a good option for treating larger areas like the forehead. Some patients also notice their results begin to appear slightly sooner than with BOTOX, although individual experiences vary.
• XEOMIN contains only the active botulinum toxin without the accessory proteins found in BOTOX and Dysport. Because of this "naked" formulation, it may be recommended for patients who have developed resistance to other wrinkle relaxers or who prefer a product with fewer additional ingredients.

We will recommend the product that's most appropriate for your treatment goals.

After discussing your goals, one of our providers will evaluate your facial movements and identify the muscles being treated. Once you're ready, we'll perform a series of small injections using a very fine needle. The procedure typically takes less than 30 minutes, and most people return to their normal routine shortly afterward.

Wrinkle relaxers temporarily reduce muscle activity to soften expression lines caused by facial movement. Dermal fillers work differently by adding volume or addressing certain facial contours and folds. Your provider can help determine which treatment is appropriate for your concerns.

You may notice improvements within a few days, but the timeline varies by product and individual. Full results can take approximately two weeks or longer, depending on the treatment. Your provider will explain when to expect results and when to evaluate your outcome.
