TREATING LINES & WRINKLES
Lines and wrinkles on the face are a natural part of the aging process, primarily caused by a combination of intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Intrinsic aging is influenced by genetic predispositions and the natural decline of collagen and elastin production in the skin over time. This leads to decreased skin elasticity and firmness. Extrinsic factors, such as prolonged sun exposure, smoking, and environmental pollutants, accelerate the aging process. UV radiation, in particular, damages collagen fibers and promotes the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. Additionally, repetitive facial expressions and muscle movements can contribute to the development of dynamic wrinkles.
Lines and wrinkle treatment encompasses a range of non-surgical procedures to address the signs of aging on the skin. Neurotoxins like Botox temporarily relax facial muscles, reducing the appearance of dynamic wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers, like Juvéderm and Restylane, restore lost volume and soften facial creases. And Sculptra stimulates natural collagen production to reverse the signs of aging. Our cosmetic providers carefully examine your facial skin to curate a personalized treatment plan for unwanted wrinkles.
How Wrinkle Treatments Work
B.TOX.BAR. takes a highly personalized approach to treating fine lines and wrinkles. Instead of offering cookie-cutter treatments, we offer different types of cosmetic injectables for different types of wrinkles. Each type of injectable has a unique mechanism of action.
Neurotoxins
Neurotoxins, like Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin, interrupt communication between nerves and muscles. They contain botulinum toxin type A, which blocks the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contraction. By preventing acetylcholine release, neurotoxins temporarily paralyze the targeted muscle, inhibiting its ability to contract and form wrinkles. This results in smoother skin as the treated muscles relax. Neurotoxins are suitable for dynamic wrinkles like forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet around the eyes.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers operate by replenishing lost volume and plumping up the skin. Hyaluronic acid-based fillers like Juvéderm and Restylane work by attracting water molecules to the treatment area, thus hydrating and adding volume to the skin. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring gel that makes skin look soft and youthful. But as you grow older, your body’s ability to produce HA reduces. Dermal fillers restore HA levels to soften wrinkles and facial creases.

Sculptra
Sculptra, a unique cosmetic injectable made of poly-L-lactic acid, stimulates natural collagen production. When injected into the skin, Sculptra microparticles trigger a natural biological response. This response prompts the body to produce new collagen, improving skin elasticity and thickness. As collagen levels increase, the skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more youthful. Unlike immediate results seen with other treatments, Sculptra’s effects develop gradually, making it a longer-lasting solution for wrinkles and fine lines.
