Anti-Wrinkle Injections (Neuromodulators) in Burlington

If you are looking for a highly effective, non-surgical way to smooth dynamic wrinkles and prevent new lines from forming, Neuromodulator Injections are the gold standard. At Luna Med Spa, our Registered Nurse Injectors specialize in using authorized injectables to safely and precisely relax the muscles responsible for frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead wrinkles, providing a refreshed and natural appearance in our comfortable clinic setting.

The Science of Smooth Skin: How Neuromodulators Work

Neuromodulators are injectables derived from a purified protein. When injected into specific, targeted facial muscles, they temporarily block the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions. Since the muscle can no longer contract fully, the overlying skin smooths out, significantly reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles that develop from repeated facial expressions.

Treating Dynamic and Preventing Static Wrinkles

This treatment is most effective for dynamic wrinkles—those visible only during expression (e.g., when frowning or smiling). It also serves as a crucial preventative measure, softening lines before they become deep, permanent static wrinkles (lines visible even at rest). Consistent treatment is the key to long-term wrinkle prevention.

Expert, Personalized Treatment at Luna Med Spa

As a trusted medical clinic, we prioritize patient safety and natural-looking results. Our expert Registered Nurse Injectors conduct a thorough assessment of your unique muscle movement patterns and facial structure to determine the exact, conservative dosage and placement required for a subtle, refreshed look. We utilize multiple types of Health Canada-authorized injectable treatments (known commercially as neuromodulators) to customize your plan, ensuring we select the product best suited for your goals.

Common Treatment Areas

Glabellar Lines (The "11s"): Vertical lines between the eyebrows.
Forehead Lines: Horizontal lines across the forehead.
Crow's Feet: Lines radiating from the corners of the eyes.
Advanced Uses: Subtle brow lifting and therapeutic treatment for hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).

What to Expect: Treatment, Comfort, and Timing

The injection process is quick and efficient, typically lasting only 10–15 minutes, often referred to as a "lunchtime procedure." We use ultra-fine needles and prioritize a gentle technique to ensure your experience is as comfortable as possible.

When Will I See Results?

The smoothing effect is not instantaneous. You will typically begin to notice the muscle relaxation within 3–4 days, with the full, final result visible after 10–14 days. Results usually last between 3 to 4 months before the muscle activity gradually returns. A consistent treatment schedule is recommended to maintain the best results.
