Smooth Away Fine Lines
and Wrinkles
Neuromodulators are injectables that temporarily relax the facial muscles responsible for creating dynamic wrinkles that appear when you smile, frown, or squint. By gently blocking nerve signals to these muscles, neuromodulators smooth existing lines and help prevent new ones from forming. At DeRosa Center, your provider precisely targets the areas that matter most to restore a softer, more youthful look while maintaining your natural expressions.
Do I Need Neuromodulators?
You may consider neuromodulators if you’re beginning to notice fine lines or deeper wrinkles caused by facial expressions or if you simply want to maintain a refreshed, youthful look without surgery. These treatments can help smooth and prevent wrinkles before they become more prominent. You may be a good candidate for neuromodulators if:
- You notice frown lines between your brows that make you look tired or tense
- You see crow’s feet forming around your eyes when you smile
- You have forehead creases that remain visible even at rest
- You want to soften expression lines without changing your natural look
- You’re seeking a preventive treatment to maintain smoother, younger-looking skin
What Are the Neuromodulators Available?
BOTOX
BOTOX is one of the most trusted and widely used wrinkle-smoothing treatments available today. It works by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles responsible for expression lines, such as frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead creases. The results typically appear within a few days and last approximately three to four months.
Dysport
Dysport is another FDA-approved neuromodulator that delivers equally beautiful results. However, Dysport spreads slightly more than BOTOX, which can make it ideal for treating larger areas like the forehead while maintaining soft, balanced movement. Some individuals also note that the results of Dysport start appearing sooner, often within two to three days.

How Are Neuromodulators Performed?
During your appointment at DeRosa Center, your provider begins by carefully assessing your facial anatomy and expression patterns to determine the ideal injection sites. After cleansing the skin, a series of small, precise injections is placed into targeted areas using an ultra-fine needle. The treatment typically takes less than 15 minutes and requires no downtime. You may feel a quick pinch with each injection, but most patients find the procedure very tolerable.
Neuromodulators FAQs:
Is There Any Downtime After Treatment?
There’s no required downtime, and you can return to your normal activities immediately. You may notice slight redness or pinpoint swelling at the injection sites, but these fade within minutes to hours. To help your results settle properly, you’ll be asked to avoid strenuous exercise and rubbing the treated area for the first day.
How Soon Will I See Results After My Treatment?
You’ll typically begin to notice smoother skin and softer expressions within three to five days after treatment, with the full results appearing around two weeks later.
How Long Do the Results Last?
Most patients enjoy results that last three to four months, depending on the product used and your individual muscle activity. With consistent treatments at DeRosa Center, your results may last longer over time as the treated muscles learn to stay more relaxed.
Will I Still Be Able to Make Facial Expressions?
Absolutely. Neuromodulators can soften specific dynamic wrinkles without freezing your face. At DeRosa Center, your provider uses a conservative, artful approach to ensure your expressions remain natural and beautiful, just with fewer visible lines.
