Comprehensive Injectable Services
Botox® and Dysport®: Wrinkle Relaxers
What Are Neuromodulators?
Botox and Dysport are injectable treatments that temporarily relax facial muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles the lines that appear with facial expressions.
Treatment Areas:
- Forehead lines
- Frown lines (between eyebrows/”elevens”)
- Crow’s feet (around eyes)
- Bunny lines (on nose)
- Lip lines (smoker’s lines)
- Chin dimpling
- Neck bands (platysmal bands)
How They Work: These neuromodulators temporarily block nerve signals to targeted muscles, preventing them from contracting and creating wrinkles.
Treatment Experience:
- Quick procedure (10-15 minutes)
- Minimal discomfort (tiny needle injections)
- No downtime—return to normal activities immediately
- Results visible in 3-7 days
- Effects last 3-4 months on average
Beyond Wrinkles: Botox also treats:
- Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis)
- Migraines
- TMJ/teeth grinding
- Gummy smile
- Facial asymmetry
Expected Results: Smoother, more relaxed appearance while maintaining natural facial expressions. Regular treatments can actually prevent wrinkles from deepening over time.

Facial Balancing: The Comprehensive Approach
What Is Facial Balancing?
Rather than treating isolated concerns, facial balancing takes a holistic approach to facial aesthetics. We evaluate your entire face to create harmonious, proportionate, natural-looking results.
Our Assessment Considers:
- Facial proportions and symmetry
- Volume loss patterns
- Skin quality and texture
- Bone structure
- Aging patterns
- Your unique features and goals
Why Facial Balancing Works Better:
Traditional approach: “I want my lips done”
Facial balancing approach: “Let’s evaluate your whole face to determine the best way to achieve beautiful, balanced lips that complement your other features”
By addressing multiple areas strategically, we create more natural, harmonious results than treating areas in isolation.
What Facial Balancing May Include:
- Neuromodulators for dynamic wrinkles
- Multiple filler placements for volume and contour
- Combination of products for optimal results
- Skin rejuvenation treatments
- Skincare recommendations
Understanding the Aging Process
How Faces Age
Effective treatment requires understanding facial aging:
Volume Loss:
- Fat pads descend and deflate
- Bone resorption changes facial structure
- Skin loses elasticity
Muscle Activity:
- Repeated expressions create static wrinkles
- Muscles strengthen and deepen lines
- Hyperactive muscles create imbalances
Skin Changes:
- Collagen and elastin decrease
- Sun damage accumulates
- Texture becomes rougher
- Pigmentation becomes uneven
The Result: Hollowing, sagging, lines, wrinkles, and an overall tired or aged appearance.
Strategic Treatment Planning
At Remedy, we address aging comprehensively:
Restore: Replace lost volume with fillers
Relax: Soften dynamic wrinkles with neuromodulators Rejuvenate: Improve skin quality with lasers and skincare Maintain: Preserve results with ongoing treatments

How long do treatments take?
Botox: 10-15 minutes. Fillers: 30-60 minutes. Comprehensive facial balancing: 60-90 minutes.

When can I see results?
Fillers: Immediately, with final results at 2 weeks. Botox: 3-7 days, peak at 2 weeks.
Will I look frozen or fake?
Not with our approach! We specialize in natural results that preserve facial movement and expression.
