Erase the Signs of Aging
Even if you avoid direct sun exposure and regularly care for your skin, wrinkles and fine lines are a natural part of our skin’s life cycle and are bound to show up eventually. For years, the only option for treating sagging and wrinkled skin was going under the knife for a facelift.
Today, we provide Botox, Xeomin, and Dysport in Sewickley to offer our clients a tasteful, nonsurgical way to restore youth and minimize the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, creases, and folds that have appeared from years of smiling, squinting, frowning, or yawning.

Our Wrinkle Relaxer Process
Step 1
Arrive on Time
We prefer that you arrive on time for your appointment so you can sit back and relax during your wrinkle relaxer appointment. You are able to fill out most required forms online, so you should not have to arrive early for paperwork.
Step 2
Relax & Enjoy
Trust that you are in the hands of an experienced member of our esthetician team, and just take this time to enjoy the relaxer process. Wrinkle relaxers are not painful, and the only possible discomfort is the injection itself, so you can take the time to either chat with your provider, or sit back, relax, and listen to our calming music.
Step 3
Next Steps
For Dysport in Sewickley, we’ll give you any aftercare instructions you may need, and we’ll reschedule another appointment if your care team determines you need multiple sessions. You won’t see results immediately, but you’ll be able to see the results in the coming 10–14 days!
How to Prep for Wrinkle Relaxers
3 Days Before
Avoid aspirin (e.g. Bayer, Excedrin) and other blood-thinning medications (e.g. vitamin E, fish oil) for at least 3 days before injections. Avoid ibuprofen (e.g. Advil, Motrin) for 3 days before injections. Note: if you’re concerned about pain or bruising, you can take Tylenol before your appointment.
24 Hours Before
Avoid consuming alcohol before your injections.
Zinc Supplements
Consider a zinc supplement in the weeks leading up to your Botox injections. Studies have shown that higher levels of zinc in the body are related to higher efficacy of Botox and other injectables.
How to Get the Most From Wrinkle Relaxers
No Touching/Massaging
No touching or massaging the injection site to avoid moving the material to a spot it wasn’t intended to be.
Stay Upright
Keep your head upright for at least 4 hours to help reduce swelling and speed up the recovery process.
Sunlight/Sunscreen
Avoid direct sunlight and use sunscreen when outside, as UV rays can disperse the injectable in your skin, shortening the effect.
Avoid for 1 Week
Avoid scrubs, toners, and abrasive cleansers for at least a week to ensure you do not disrupt the precisely-applied Botox.
Sleeping
Sleep with your face up and slightly elevated if you are experiencing swelling.
Physical Activity
Avoid strenuous activity or aerobics for 24 hours after your injections.
Treat Your Skin
You don’t have to worry about treating your skin by mistreating your wallet! With either our “No Filter Needed” or “My Favorite Things” memberships, you’ll be able to receive the same quality care and products from your favorite skincare team at premium prices.
