Wrinkle Smoothers

we offer a variety of wrinkle smoothers (BOTOX®, dysport, jeuveua and xeomin) to temporarily correct fine lines and wrinkles.

WHEN TO start?

During your visit Dr. Melanie Petro may recommend a wrinkle smoother for the treatment of fine lines and wrinkles.

possible treatment applications include:

  • frown lines

  • forehead lines

  • crow’s feet

  • upper lip (lip flip)

  • bunny lines

  • chin

  • corners of the mouth

  • masseters

  • axilla (armpits)

  • Hands/feet

HOW DO wrinkle smoothers WORK?

wrinkle smoothers works by blocking the chemical signal that activates small facial muscles, causing them relax and stop contracting for several months. Wrinkles then flatten out and become less visible.

During a treatment (usually 15 minutes or less), facial plastic surgeon Dr. Melanie Petro will identify the areas for wrinkle correction and then administer injections. Topical anesthetic can be used, but it’s typically not needed. For best results, Dr. Petro may recommend that you combine your wrinkle smoother treatment with an injectable wrinkle filler.

SEEING THE RESULTS: WHAT HAPPENS AFTER the TREATMENT?

your results will be noticeable after 4 to 8 days. During the hours that follow your treatment, Dr. Petro may advise you to remain upright, avoid alcohol, and avoid exposure to the sun. Inform the doctor if you experience any unexpected symptoms or if any existing symptom becomes more severe.

Possible side effects include redness, bruising, stinging, nausea, fatigue, flu-like symptoms, headache and drooping eyelid.
