Neuromodulators are mixed into a liquid solution and injected in very small amounts into specific select facial muscles, weakening the target muscle, typically lasting for several months.
Product Recommendation for Neuromodulators: INhance Post Injection Serum with TriHex Technology®

How do neuromodulators work? The weakening effect of neuromodulator injection reduces the facial muscles’ ability to animate in that area and temporarily reduces or eliminates skin wrinkles or folds at the injection site.
The Main Benefits of a Neuromodulator Treatment:
Neuromodulator treatments such as Botox, Xeomin, Jeauveu and Dysport may take several days to have the full effect, however, once the effect of the injection kicks in, it typically can last 3+ months before the nerve impulses and muscle movement completely returns. At that point the cosmetic injectable treatments may be repeated as desired by the patient.
After receiving neuromodulator injections, incorporating specialized, complementary products to your skin care routine is key to enhancing the effects of such cosmetic procedures. Formulated with TriHex Technology®, INhance Post-Injection Serum is designed to work with injectables and dermal fillers to help accelerate recovery from post-treatment bruising, as well as improve the appearance of skin quality and texture by supporting the skin's natural production of elastin and collagen. INhance also pairs well with Restorative Skin Complex with TriHex Technology® to help with fine lines.
Whether you want a cosmetic treatment for fine lines between your brows, horizontal forehead lines or crow’s feet around the eyes, there are a variety of neuromodulator treatments to choose from:
"I love using ALASTIN Skin Nectar both prior to laser procedures and after laser treatments to optimize the results of the laser treatments. The benefit of using Skin Nectar prior to laser treatments is that it prepares the skin for the collagen and elastin remodeling that occurs after the laser procedures. I always apply it immediately after the procedure to help alleviate the initial burning or heat sensation that occurs. Then, I encourage my patients to use it for 2 weeks after the laser treatments in order to minimize the redness, decrease the downtime, and also enhance the results. I personally use the product and believe in the real science behind it."

“ALASTIN Regenerating Skin Nectar is one of the best-selling products in my office. It not only works to enhance post-treatment recovery (such as non-ablative laser treatments) but patients fall in love with it once they feel it and want to continue using it even after recovery. I recommend it also for rejuvenation, along with its sister product ALASTIN Restorative Skin Complex.”
