4 weeks!
Neuromodulators block the release of a neurotransmitter that tells your muscles to contract. By interrupting this signal, the muscles relax and the skin over the muscles smooths out.
The neuromodulators don’t work instantly, you might notice changes in a few days but it takes 14 days to reach maximum effect.
By scheduling your appointment 4 weeks in advance, you have time to make adjustments at your two week follow up appointment. You can allow those adjustments to settle in and by the 4 week mark you will be smooth glowing for your event.

It’s important that you remain upright for the next 4-6 hours, so don’t go home and take a nap. You should also avoid any vigorous exercise, hot tub, sauna, alcohol, and NSAIDS (like ibuprofen). Also avoid rubbing or massaging the treatment area.
Neuromodulators
Reduce wrinkles and achieve a naturally refreshed look with neuromodulator injections. These safe, minimally invasive treatments temporarily relax the muscles that contribute to fine lines, giving you a smoother, younger-looking appearance. SkinWise Rx proudly offers both Dysport and Daxxify.
Target Concerns
Neuromodulators are highly effective for treating and preventing:
Moderate to severe frown lines (the "11s")
Crow's feet around the eyes
Horizontal forehead lines
Other dynamic facial wrinkles and creases
How Do Neuromodulators Work?
Neuromodulators work by gently blocking the nerve signals to the injected muscles. This reduces the repetitive muscle contractions that cause wrinkles to form in the skin. Not only does this smooth out current wrinkles, but it also helps prevent future lines from developing.

Injection: During the treatment, a small amount of the neuromodulator is injected precisely into the targeted muscle groups.
Comfort: You may experience some temporary, minor discomfort, but most patients tolerate the quick procedure incredibly well.

Timeline: You may begin to see noticeable improvement within just a few days, with optimal smoothing typically achieved within a month.
