NEUROMODULATORS
LOOK NATURAL, REVITALIZED, AND YOUTHFUL
Neuromodulators
Neuromodulators such as Botox, Dysport, Xeomin and Jeuveau, have been FDA approved in small doses to relax muscle movement that causes wrinkles. When injected under the skin, they have been found to safely relax muscles in areas of forehead, in-between eyes, (11’s) crowfeet around eyes and in some other safe off labels uses in the face and body. Neuromodulators are a great way to soften your appearance and keep you feeling youthful.
Experience Matters
When considering Neuromodulator injections, it is essential to choose a highly trained medical practitioner to ensure optimal results.
Our goal at Jen Medical Aesthetics is to make our patients of all ages look youthful and rested but completely natural.

This procedure is great for wrinkles that are forming (for our younger clients) or have already formed from repeated muscle contractions like frowning and smiling. The procedure is fast, safe, and effective and results last for up to 3-4 months with no downtime or surgery, and little to no discomfort.

Frequently Asked Questions
Skin creases when the underlying muscles contract. Wrinkles that form, for example, when you frown but go away when you stop frowning are called dynamic wrinkles. When we are younger the skin still creases but our youthful, more elastic skin flattens out completely when the muscle relaxes. As we age the skin loses its elasticity and repeated creasing of the skin causes permanent lines or static wrinkles.
Botulinum toxin is a powerful neurotoxin that inhibits acetylcholine release at the neuromuscular junction. Small amounts of botulinum toxin injected into specific overactive muscles cause localized muscle relaxation, smoothing the overlying skin and reducing wrinkles.

For cosmetic purposes, Botox and other neuromuscular blockers have FDA clearance for only a few select areas and only in the upper face. At Genevieve Beaty & Wellness has extensive experience with safe “off label” use and we offer effective treatments for the upper and lower face as well as the neck, underarms, feet, and palms for control of excess sweating.
The cost varies with each patient. Our provider charges per treatment area and some patients want multiple areas treated. Some patients have stronger muscles needing more of the medication injected in each area. Everyone has different needs.
After about 3-6 months the facial muscles once weakened resume motion and the wrinkles caused by these muscles are again forming or worsening. It is best to receive regular treatments every 3-4 months before the full effect has worn off, so the wrinkles do not form again. To get the most benefit from treatments they are best done three or four times per year.
We use the tiniest needles to minimize discomfort. Ice is applied to the sites just before the injection and vibration is used during the injections to create a nearly painless treatment.
The injections take about 15 minutes to perform in our office. Initially, the injection sites appear similar to mosquito bites but are hardly noticeable after 20 minutes. You may go right back to work or play, and no one will know you had anything done. We recommend you not rub the areas injected and limit vigorous exercise for about 4 hours after the injections. On occasion, you may have a small bruise lasting about a week, but the bruise is easily covered with makeup.
Dysport works a bit faster than Botox by several days. You may start seeing results in 1-2 days with Dysport and about 3-4 days with Botox. The full effect of both medications takes two weeks. Every patient is different, some needing more medication than others. On occasion, it may require a complimentary touch-up (when needed) adding some more medication to give the desired result. We always wait two weeks before additional injections to allow enough time for the medication to take full effect.
