Neurotoxin Specialist in Sacramento CA

Neurotoxins—including well-known brands like Botox, Xeomin, and Jeuveau—are expertly administered by our experienced medical team to temporarily reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and fine lines.

Neurotoxins are carefully injected into targeted facial muscles to block the nerve signals responsible for muscle contraction. By preventing the release of acetylcholine—a chemical messenger that causes muscles to contract—these treatments relax specific facial muscles. This relaxation softens dynamic wrinkles, such as those formed by repeated expressions like frowning, squinting, or raising your eyebrows.

Results typically become noticeable within a few days, reaching maximum effect in about two weeks. Most clients enjoy smoother, rejuvenated skin for three to four months before a touch-up is recommended to maintain optimal results.

Safety and Expertise

Your safety and satisfaction are our top priorities. When administered by our qualified healthcare professionals, neurotoxin injections are both safe and effective. During your comprehensive consultation, we will discuss your expectations, review your medical history, and answer any questions you may have about the procedure, potential side effects, or contraindications.

Beyond Wrinkle Reduction

In addition to cosmetic enhancements, neurotoxins can be used to treat conditions such as excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) and chronic migraines. If you are interested in learning whether neurotoxin therapy is right for you.

Wrinkles, especially dynamic wrinkles, develop over time due to repeated facial expressions like frowning, squinting, or smiling. These movements cause the underlying facial muscles to contract, eventually forming visible lines and creases in the skin. At Arden Creek Laser and Aesthetics, our skilled providers precisely inject neurotoxins into targeted facial muscles. This process temporarily blocks the nerve signals that trigger muscle contractions, allowing the muscles—and your skin—to relax.

Smoother skin and a significant reduction in the appearance of wrinkles, particularly in common trouble spots like the forehead, glabellar lines (the “11s” between your brows), and crow’s feet around the eyes. The effects typically last three to six months, after which you can choose to repeat the treatment to maintain your refreshed appearance. At Arden Creek Laser and Aesthetics, every procedure is tailored to your unique needs and performed under the highest standards of safety and care.

Before your treatment, our skilled provider will review your medical history, and we will carefully assess the areas you want treated to develop a tailored plan that best suits your needs.

The Procedure

Your skin will be cleansed, and if desired, we can apply a topical anesthetic or use ice to ensure your comfort—though most clients experience only minimal, brief discomfort. Using a fine needle, our provider will expertly inject small amounts of neurotoxin into targeted muscles beneath the skin. The number and placement of injections are customized for you, whether you’re seeking to smooth wrinkles or address another medical or cosmetic concern.

The entire procedure usually takes just 10 to 30 minutes.

Aftercare and Results

After your injections, you may notice mild redness, swelling, or slight bruising, but these effects typically resolve within a few hours to a couple of days. Most of our patients are able to return to their normal activities right away. For best results, we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, massaging the treated area, or lying flat for several hours after your visit.

You’ll begin to see the benefits of your neurotoxin treatment within a few days. Our team will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions and help schedule any necessary follow-up appointments to ensure you’re thrilled with your results.

Neurotoxins are a cornerstone of modern cosmetic medicine, and our experienced team utilizes them to address a range of facial concerns and help our patients achieve a refreshed, naturally youthful look.

The primary benefit of neurotoxin injections is the smoothing of dynamic wrinkles—those formed by repeated facial movements such as frowning, squinting, and smiling. With precise application, we can soften forehead lines, glabellar lines (the “11” lines between the eyebrows), and crow’s feet around the eyes, creating a smoother and more relaxed appearance while preserving your natural expressiveness.

Beyond wrinkle reduction, our skilled injectors use neurotoxins to subtly lift and contour the face. For example, neurotoxins can gently elevate the eyebrows for a more open and rejuvenated look, minimize the appearance of horizontal neck bands (platysmal bands), and soften a “gummy smile.” We also offer treatments for chin dimpling and jawline refinement by relaxing the masseter muscles—a solution that can enhance facial symmetry and even provide relief for patients with bruxism (teeth grinding).

At Arden Creek Laser and Aesthetics, every neurotoxin treatment is customized to your unique features and goals.
