Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Botulinum toxin Type A (BTA) is the world's most popular minimally invasive cosmetic treatment. This works to temporarily immobilize specific facial muscles to soften and prevent further development of fine lines and wrinkles and improve a variety of cosmetic issues.
WHAT IS IT?
A wrinkle relaxer made of botulinum toxin is injected into specific muscles to temporarily relax them. Many refer to wrinkle relaxers as Botox, which is a brand that is often used as an all-inclusive term for wrinkle relaxers. By reducing muscle activity, these injections minimize skin creasing and forming lines and wrinkles, particularly in areas around the eyes, forehead, and between the brows. With a consistent treatment schedule, even permanent lines can become less noticeable. In addition, by preventing the skin from creasing, we reduce the damage to your collagen and allow the skin to repair itself more effectively. At MIMO RX we carry 4 FDA-approved types: Dysport®, Jeuveau®, Xeomin®, and Botox® (by request only). Recommendations are made based on age, facial skin needs, and goals, as well as drawing from our experience to determine the best option for you. However, we also value your preferences and will consider them when selecting the most suitable brand for your treatment.
Administered by qualified healthcare professionals, wrinkle-relaxing treatments are generally considered safe. Mild and temporary side effects, such as slight bruising, redness, or swelling at the injection site, may occur.

To get the most out of your anti-wrinkle injections, we recommend combining them with medical-grade skincare, SPF protection, and enhancements in skin texture and tightening.
