What Are Wrinkle Relaxers?
When you see your face in pictures or mirrors, are you bothered by the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the forehead, eyes, and mouth? Frequently called dynamic lines and wrinkles, these skin concerns occur due to repetitive facial expressions, such as squinting, smiling, and frowning. As people age, these lines eventually stay put, creating a tired or "worn down" look. Thanks to Wrinkle Relaxers Cosmetic, we can often temporarily stop the development of moderate to severe Crow's feet, frown lines, and horizontal forehead creases. Wrinkle Relaxers is made from a purified type A strain of botulinum toxin. It works to temporarily relax the facial muscles that create those movements, letting the skin rebound over time. At Iteld Plastic Surgery, our team is excited to perform Wrinkle Relaxers treatments as a nonsurgical solution to help women and men enjoy a smoother, renewed outcome. We invite you to call our office in Chicago, IL to set up a consultation with Dr. Lawrence Iteld for more information about the benefits of Wrinkle Relaxers.
Neuromuscular toxins, including BOTOX®, are the most common nonsurgical aesthetic treatments performed, accounting for nearly 6 million encounters annually in the United States. These injections temporarily weaken the muscles that cause wrinkles by blocking the nerve signals that cause muscles to contract. The toxin works directly where placed, allowing for tremendous control to alter facial shape in artistically pleasing ways.
BOTOX® and other neuromuscular toxins are a great way to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as to prevent new lines from forming. They work by temporarily relaxing facial muscles. Common injection sites include the forehead, the area between the eyebrows (the “11s”), the corners of the eyes (crows’ feet), and the sides of the chin.
How Does Wrinkle Relaxers Work?
During your initial consultation at Iteld Plastic Surgery, a member of our team will meet with you to perform a cosmetic assessment and determine which areas would benefit most from Wrinkle Relaxers. The injections only take a few minutes so we'll likely be able to administer them during this same first appointment. The formula will be injected into the specified areas of your brow or upper face using a fine needle. Wrinkle Relaxers takes approximately a few minutes to complete, and many patients experience only slight discomfort (such as a pinching or pinprick sensation). Following your session, you can leave our Chicago, IL office and carry on with your daily activities.
What Are The Benefits Of Wrinkle Relaxers?
Fine lines and wrinkles can distract from your natural features and make you look older than you really are. Wrinkle Relaxers is a great technique for helping you get a younger, polished aesthetic. Although the results are not forever, you will enjoy the benefits for many months prior to needing to have a second treatment. Patients may also receive additional advantages from Wrinkle Relaxers at Iteld Plastic Surgery, like:
- Simple upkeep: People who wish to keep their appearance semi-permanently can discover that follow-up treatment appointments are brief and doable for everyday schedules.
- Brief treatment sessions: Wrinkle Relaxers procedures usually take only 10 – 15 minutes to complete.
- Minor discomfort: Wrinkle Relaxers sessions use a very fine needle, making your procedures seem like a little pinch of the skin.
- Very little downtime or rehab: Due to its nonsurgical qualities, you can immediately return to your everyday schedule after treatment.
Wrinkle Relaxer Reviews
My first venture into the product voluma and I must say, as reluctant as I was to go beyond Botox and into filler , this product and the care from Kimmy and the staff surpassed my expectations. For any male looking to increase some volume in areas of the face , look no further , Kimmy will shave a few years off you, with the utmost care and conservative approach where it won't change you, just make you a refreshed, well rested version of you.
Kimmy is a phenomenal injector and is extremely knowledgeable about PRF/EZ Gel, energy based treatments, scarring, and her insight and education about facial anatomy, the aging process, and treating general cosmetic concerns for various ethnic skin types is extensive and surpasses any other injector I’ve encountered before. She is warm, patient, very empathetic, and I always feel fully heard and cared for during my appointments. She is so friendly, dedicated and passionate about what she does, and she truly shines in her role. Iteld Plastic Surgery (and her patients) are so lucky to have her! She’s a true gem! Keep up the good work!
If you want the best care service for Botox or Radiesse go see Kimi at Iteld. She is the best you can get ! You don't need to look anywhere else. Go to Iteld for any of your beauty needs. You won't regret it ;)

Let me begin by stating that this review will be lengthy, but it is well worth reading for those seeking an exceptional experience from start to finish. I have undergone breast augmentation twice in the past, with the first procedure yielding suboptimal results and the second being a repair surgery. Both experiences were painful. After many years, one implant ruptured, and I was referred to Dr. Iteld by my eye surgeon, who had previously performed successful cosmetic eyelid surgical procedures following Mohs surgery on my eye.It had been a challenging year. From my initial consultation to post-operative care, my experience with Dr. Iteld and his team has been nothing short of exceptional. Linda was extremely patient and took the time to ensure I selected the correct implant size for my body. Carole thoroughly explained the necessary post-operative care for optimal results. Dr. Iteld demonstrated exceptional bedside manner, a great sense of humor, and professionalism while addressing my concerns and questions with confidence. He assured me that he could repair the damage and that I would be pleased with the results, which would be relatively painless. His predictions were accurate. The results exceeded my expectations, with my breasts now being symmetrical, perfectly sized, and looking and feeling natural. I couldn't be more pleased. During my first follow-up appointment, I was offered a choice between Botox or filler, with no pressure. Ashley explained the offer and assisted with scheduling an appointment. I opted for Botox. After consulting with my eye surgeon regarding certain areas to avoid due to nerve issues, I spoke with Kimmy, who calmed my fears and demonstrated compassion, comfort, and expertise. She took the time to understand my skin care routine and provided guidance on proper product application and the importance of sunscreen. I was so impressed with Kimmy that I returned for filler, which I had previously been hesitant to try due to concerns about appearing unnatural. Kimmy listened attentively to my desires and thoroughly explained the procedure. The results are incredible and remarkably natural. I cannot praise the entire Iteld staff enough. They are consummate professionals, compassionate, and meticulous. From the outset, I felt cared for by everyone, and my confidence in my appearance has never been higher. Thank you to the entire Iteld staff.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Botox®, Dysport®, and Daxxify® Treat the Same Areas?
Yes. Botox®, Dysport®, and Daxxify® are all wrinkle relaxers used to treat forehead lines, frown lines, crow's feet, and other expression-related wrinkles.
The best choice depends on your anatomy, goals, treatment history, and preferences. We'll help determine which option is right for you.
How Long Do Wrinkle Relaxers Last?
Most wrinkle relaxers last approximately three to four months, although some products, such as Daxxify®, may last longer in certain patients.
Results vary based on the product used, treatment area, and individual muscle activity
Can You "Undo" Muscle Relaxer Injections?
Unlike some fillers, wrinkle relaxers cannot be dissolved once injected.
If adjustments are needed, we'll evaluate your results and discuss options. Fortunately, the effects are temporary and gradually wear off over time.
Can Wrinkle Relaxers Treat Smile Lines or Marionette Lines?
Wrinkle relaxers are not usually the primary treatment for smile lines (nasolabial folds) or marionette lines because these concerns are often related to volume loss and skin laxity rather than muscle movement alone.
However, they may help reduce downward tension around the mouth and are sometimes combined with fillers or other rejuvenation treatments for more comprehensive results.
Why Are Fillers Sometimes Recommended Instead of Wrinkle Relaxers?
Wrinkle relaxers reduce muscle activity that causes expression lines, while fillers restore lost volume and structural support.
Because smile lines (nasolabial folds) and marionette lines are often caused by volume loss rather than muscle movement, fillers frequently provide more effective correction in those areas.
Will I Still Look Natural After Wrinkle Relaxer Treatment?
Yes. The goal is to soften lines while maintaining natural facial movement and expression.
At Iteld Plastic Surgery, treatments are customized carefully to help you look refreshed and rested, not frozen or overtreated.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Wrinkle Relaxer Treatments?
Wrinkle relaxers are a popular nonsurgical option for reducing dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated facial expressions. Most healthy adults who are bothered by forehead lines, frown lines, crow's feet, or similar concerns are good candidates.
During your consultation, we'll evaluate your anatomy, concerns, and goals to determine the best treatment approach.
When Should I Start Wrinkle Relaxer Treatments?
There is no specific age to begin treatment. Some patients start when they first notice expression lines lingering at rest, while others wait until lines become more noticeable.
The best timing depends on your anatomy, concerns, and aesthetic goals.
