What Are Wrinkle Relaxers?
Wrinkle relaxers (also known as neuromodulators) are an effective, nonsurgical aesthetic treatment offered at Midwest Medical Weight Loss & Aesthetics for Orland Park and Frankfort, IL patients who want to smooth their features and enjoy a more youthful look with little to no downtime. Over time, facial expressions like smiling, laughing, or frowning can leave lines that stay etched on your face, leading to Crow's feet, forehead wrinkles, chin dimpling, and "smoker's lines" around the mouth. Wrinkle relaxers work by temporarily relaxing your facial muscles to soften expression lines without altering your natural look. We proudly offer some of the most popular neuromodulator options on the market, including BOTOX®, Dysport®, and XEOMIN®, each formulated to create a smoother, more refreshed look. Find out how wrinkle relaxer injections could fit into your skin care routine by scheduling an appointment with our aesthetic specialists today.
How Are Wrinkle Relaxer Injections Performed?
Your appointment will start with a consultation to discuss the areas you'd like to improve and the results you're hoping to achieve. From there, we'll work with you to select the right wrinkle relaxer formula for your needs and map out your injections. Once your plan is ready, one of our experienced injectors will gently cleanse your face and mark the target areas. The injections will then be administered in small doses using a thin needle. The entire appointment usually takes less than 30 minutes, and most patients only notice a slight pinch as the injections are delivered. Afterward, you can get back to your normal routine right away.
What Are the Benefits of Wrinkle Relaxers?
Expression lines are a natural part of aging, but they don't have to be a permanent feature. Our experienced injectors at Midwest Medical Weight Loss & Aesthetics tailor every neuromodulator treatment to each patient's facial anatomy and goals, providing subtle refinement that can last for months. The benefits of wrinkle relaxer injections performed at our Orland Park and Frankfort, IL locations include:
- Softening forehead lines and wrinkles
- Smoothing frown lines between the eyebrows
- Reducing the appearance of Crow's feet
- Preventing expression lines from becoming more deep-set over time
- Requiring little to no downtime after treatment
- Providing results that look natural and understated

Frequently Asked Questions about Wrinkle Relaxers
How do wrinkle relaxers work?
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.
What areas can wrinkle relaxers treat?
Wrinkle relaxers are commonly used to treat forehead lines, frown lines between the eyebrows, and Crow's feet around the eyes. They may also be used for concerns such as bunny lines, lip lines, chin dimpling, neck bands, and other areas, depending on your individual needs. Our experienced skin care providers at Midwest Medical Weight Loss & Aesthetics will help you build a personalized treatment plan based on your goals.
How often should wrinkle relaxer treatments be scheduled?
Every patient's experience is different, but most people schedule maintenance treatments every 3 – 4 months to keep their results looking consistent. Our providers will recommend a treatment schedule based on the product used, your muscle activity, and your aesthetic goals.
What is the difference between BOTOX, Dysport, and XEOMIN?
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 FDA-approved and 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.
What happens during a wrinkle relaxer appointment?
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.
