What Are Wrinkle Relaxers?
A wrinkle relaxer is a nonsurgical injectable treatment to address fine lines and wrinkles that appear due to frequent muscle contractions. It may work to diminish signs of aging, including forehead creases, crow's feet near the eyes, and "11" lines between the brows. Wrinkle relaxers use a purified strain of botulinum toxin type A, which briefly limits facial muscle contractions. This causes the appearance of wrinkles to diminish for several months. At SkinLaB, we offer both BOTOX® and Dysport® to help meet your personal needs. Our team is highly experienced in producing beautiful results with wrinkle relaxer treatments at our Cranberry Township, PA pratice.
How Do Wrinkle Relaxers Work?
During your detailed consultation at our Cranberry Township, PA practice, we will review which wrinkle relaxer treatment is ideal for you and your aesthetic goals. Should you decide to move forward, the treatment can be done the same day as your consultation. Depending on the number of injections performed, your treatment could take about 10 – 15 minutes, and then you may return to your normal routine with no downtime.
What Should I Expect After My Treatment?
After your wrinkle relaxer treatment, you can go about your regular routine; however, it's a good idea to avoid overexertion for a day. For the first 24 hours, you should abstain from pushing on or massaging your face. The treatment sites could become pink, slightly sore, or bruised, but your symptoms should fade in a few days. Results are typically noticeable within a few days, with optimal results at 10-14 days. Results last typically between 3-4 months.

Wrinkle Relaxers Reviews
I have been going to Mistica for years now and she and her team are the only people that I trust to administer Dysport/Botox. When looking for someone to administer Botox, it is really important to me that they have extensive training and experience. Mistica is a well respected medical professional in the Pittsburgh area (any beyond!), and has always made me feel extremely comfortable. She also takes an interest in her patient's lives, which I really appreciate. I am thrilled that SkinLab is now open and can't wait to come back!
Love SkinLaB and Mistica! Mistica did a great job with my Dysport! I had zero pain and it was the perfect amount. I also just got cheek filler, and under eye filler. I was pretty nervous about the pain, but she took every step possible to help it be pain-free, and I felt nothing! I love the final result. I wanted an overall natural look, but to just look refreshed. And she totally nailed it! The SkinLaB facility is absolutely beautiful and spotless. I love the modern decor, and it was so clean! The location is so ideal, located in Cranberry Township, in one of the busiest plazas. It is so easy to get to and great parking.
Mistica and her team are first class! Honest, professional, intelligent, personable, and fun. Best in the business for sure!
Beautiful facility and can't speak highly enough of Mistica who is thoughtful, tremendously skilled, knowledgeable, and has excellent bedside manner.
Mistica is FABULOUS! Professional and clearly loves what she does for a living! Thoroughly explained all treatments. She goes the extra mile for her patients.

Are Wrinkle Relaxers Good for Me?
Wrinkle relaxer injections work well for patients who are seeking to minimize the appearance of wrinkles and creases on their face without experiencing surgery. In some cases, wrinkle relaxers, such as BOTOX, are requested by younger individuals (such as those in their 20s) who hope to prevent signs of aging completely. Our skilled team will highlight the specifics of every selection and help you understand the one that works best for you.
How many wrinkle relaxer units or injections will I need?
The number of wrinkle relaxer injections needed will be different according to individual needs and the depth of your facial wrinkles and creases. Our team can talk with you about the necessary quantity of injections with a focus on your desired goals. We typically suggest doing this treatment every 3-4 months for maintenance.
Are winkle relaxer treatments painful?
As is the case with many injectable therapies, patients will notice a brief pinching sensation as the injection is given. You should not experience any discomfort in the treated areas afterward.
What's the difference between wrinkle relaxers and dermal fillers?
Both wrinkle relaxers and dermal fillers help create a youthful appearance, but they each function differently. Wrinkle relaxers, such as Botox and Dysport, prevent the muscles from contracting which smoothes any overlying wrinkles. Dermal fillers, however, boost volume to sunken facial areas and fill in deep lines. Our team can speak further regarding the benefits of dermal fillers and wrinkle relaxers during your appointment at our Cranberry Township, PA facility.
