What Are Wrinkle Relaxers?

Wrinkle relaxers are injectable treatments that target dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle movement. These products work by temporarily blocking the signals from nerves to muscles, preventing them from contracting. The result is a smoother, more youthful appearance. Popular wrinkle relaxers like Botox, Dysport, Jeuveau, and Xeomin all use similar active ingredients—botulinum toxin—but can slightly differ

All wrinkle relaxers can be used in the 3 main upper face areas: frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines. There are many specialized treatment areas as well including jawline, masseters, chin, lip, neck and underarms/palms for excessive sweating.

Similarities and Differences

Botox

Botox is the most well-known and widely used wrinkle relaxer. It has a proven track record for treating dynamic wrinkles and has been trusted by millions of patients worldwide.

Duration: Results last 3 to 4 months.
Onset: Visible effects begin within 3 to 7 days.
Maximum Effects: 2 weeks from the time of injection.
Benefits: Botox smooths fine lines, reduces the appearance of wrinkles, and prevents new ones from forming.
Cost: $15/unit (20% off for our Perfect Vault members)

Dysport

Dysport is a wrinkle relaxer similar to Botox but with a slightly different formulation. It is designed to spread more easily across larger treatment areas, making it ideal for certain patients and wrinkle anatomy.

Duration: Results last 3 to 4 months.
Onset: Dysport tends to show results quicker, often within 2 to 3 days.
Maximum Effect: 2 weeks from the time of injection.
Benefits: Provides fast, natural-looking results with less risk of a "frozen" appearance in some cases.
Dysport is dosed differently than Botox because it has a different potency. A higher number of units are required when compared to botox to achieve the same effect. Typically, 1 unit of Dysport is about 3 times as potent as 1 unit of Botox. It is priced accordingly.
Cost: $5/unit (20% for our Perfect Vault members)

Jeuveau

Jeuveau is a newer injectable wrinkle relaxer that targets the same facial wrinkles as Botox. It is sometimes referred to as "Newtox" and offers similar results.

Duration: Results typically last 3 to 4 months.
Onset: Similar to Botox, results appear within 3 to 7 days.
Maximum Effect: 2 weeks from the time of injection.
Benefits: No unique benefits, but may be preferred by some individuals.
Cost: $15/unit (20% off for our Perfect Vault members)

Xeomin

Xeomin is a unique wrinkle relaxer because it does not have the complexing proteins or additives that the other types of botulinum toxin have. The absence of these proteins in Xeomin makes it more "purified," which is why it is often recommended for patients who may develop a resistance or sensitivity to Botox or Dysport.

Duration: Results last 3 to 4 months.
Onset: Results appear in about 3 to 5 days.
Maximum Effect: 2 weeks from the time of injection.
Benefits: Ideal for patients with sensitivities or tolerance to other products.
Cost: $15/unit (20% off for our Perfect Vault members)

How Long Do Wrinkle Relaxers Last?

All of our wrinkle relaxer treatments—whether Botox, Dysport, Jeuveau, or Xeomin—provide results that typically last 3 to 4 months. Duration is dose depending-a higher dose can last longer. The duration of your results may also vary depending on factors such as your age, lifestyle, and the area treated. As your muscles gradually regain movement, you may notice the return of wrinkles, at which point a maintenance treatment can help regain your smooth, youthful appearance.

Is any single type of wrinkle relaxer really better than another?

No single wrinkle relaxer is universally "better" than another; it all depends on the individual’s needs, preferences, and how their body responds to the treatment. Here’s a breakdown of factors that could make one product more suitable than another:

1. Onset of Results

Dysport tends to show results faster, often within 2–3 days, making it ideal for those looking for quicker results.
Botox, Xeomin, and Jeuveau usually take around 3–7 days to show visible effect.
All types have their peak effects at 2 weeks.

2. Duration of Results

All four products (Botox, Dysport, Jeuveau, and Xeomin) typically last 3 to 4 months, though some individuals may find that one lasts slightly longer or shorter depending on their metabolism and the area treated.

3. Personal Response and Sensitivity

Some individuals may respond better to one wrinkle relaxer than another. For instance, Xeomin has no additives, so it may be a better choice for those who have developed a resistance to Botox or other botulinum toxin products.
Dysport may be a better choice for patients who want broader treatment areas since it diffuses more widely.
