At Dr. Garramone’s esteemed plastic surgery practice, we are dedicated to offering a comprehensive range of injectable treatments tailored to our valued patients' diverse needs. Among these treatments, neuromodulators play a pivotal role in addressing facial aging, and we are pleased to provide an overview of these transformative procedures.
Neuromodulators, commonly called neurotoxins, involve administering a safe dose of botulinum toxin Type A into specific facial muscles, resulting in temporary relaxation. This process effectively diminishes the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, leading to a rejuvenated and refreshed facial aesthetic. At our Ft. Myers-based practice, we offer a selection of neurotoxins, each with its distinct formulation and unique effects, to cater to the individualized needs of our discerning clientele.
BOTOX: A Timeless Classic
BOTOX, a renowned and time-honored neurotoxin, has been an FDA-approved treatment since 2002. It is specially formulated to address moderate to severe wrinkles between the eyebrows, on the forehead, and around the eyes (commonly known as crow's feet). With its targeted impact on a smaller muscle area, BOTOX is well-suited for those seeking precise treatment of specific facial regions. Patients typically begin to observe results within the first week, with full effects manifesting in approximately two weeks.
Dysport: Rapid Diffusion, Broad Impact
Approved by the FDA in 2009, Dysport offers a compelling alternative for addressing wrinkles between the eyebrows and on the forehead. Distinguished by its rapid diffusion and broader impact on facial muscles, Dysport is favored for effectively treating more significant areas of the forehead. Results are often noticeable within two to three days, with the full effects becoming evident around two weeks post-treatment. The rejuvenating effects of Dysport typically last for three to five months, with some reports suggesting potential for extended duration.
Jeuveau: Aesthetic Innovation
In 2019, Jeuveau garnered FDA approval for treating wrinkles between the eyebrows (commonly known as 11 lines) and on the forehead. Unlike BOTOX and Dysport, Jeuveau is specifically designed for aesthetic and cosmetic purposes, setting it apart as a specialized option for rejuvenating facial aesthetics. Patients typically experience visible results within two to three days, with the full effects materializing in approximately two weeks.
Daxxify: The Latest Advancement
Earning FDA approval in 2023, Daxxify represents the newest addition to our range of neurotoxin treatments. Daxxify sets itself apart by utilizing peptides instead of human or animal proteins in its formulation, resulting in a longer-lasting impact of up to six months. This extended duration translates to fewer follow-up maintenance appointments, making it an appealing choice for individuals seeking sustained results with reduced treatment frequency. For those new to neurotoxins or exploring treatment for different facial areas, a neurotoxin with a shorter duration may be preferable, especially for managing expectations and assessing results.
