Have you ever wondered how to eliminate stubborn wrinkles and fine lines without going under the knife? At the Plastic Surgery Center of Hampton Roads, we offer personalized neuromodulators in Newport News and Williamsburg like BOTOX® and Dysport® to help you smooth away facial wrinkles without incisions, surgeries, or downtime!
Inject Away Facial
Wrinkles & Creases
Neuromodulators, such as Botox and Dysport, are non-surgical cosmetic treatments that reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. They temporarily relax specific facial muscles, preventing them from contracting and forming wrinkles. At the Plastic Surgery Center of Hampton Roads, we offer expertly administered neuromodulators to help you achieve a smoother, more youthful look without invasive surgery.
Neuromodulators Treat:
- Forehead lines
- Frown lines (between the eyebrows)
- Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
- Bunny lines (nose wrinkles)
- Neck bands
- Other facial wrinkles and creases
The Types of Neuromodulators Include:
Botox
Botox is a brand name for onabotulinumtoxinA, a neuromodulator used in cosmetic and medical treatments. It works by blocking nerve signals in targeted muscles, leading to the softening of dynamic wrinkles, such as forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet. Botox is a household name because it was the first neurotoxin to receive approval for dynamic wrinkles.
Dysport
Dysport is another neuromodulator like Botox, containing abobotulinumtoxinA. It functions similarly by blocking nerve signals to muscles, leading to wrinkle relaxation. Dysport produces results similar to Botox but may diffuse more easily, making it particularly suitable for large areas like the forehead. In some cases, the results also appear a little earlier.
How Neuromodulators Work
Neuromodulators block the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contractions. When injected into specific facial muscles, they inhibit acetylcholine’s action, preventing the muscles from contracting excessively. This temporary muscle relaxation results in smoother skin as wrinkles and fine lines soften or disappear. The results of your neuromodulators in Newport News and Williamsburg typically last several months, after which muscle function gradually returns to normal.

Neuromodulator Treatments in Hampton Roads
When you come in for a neuromodulator treatment, you’ll have a consultation with one of our skilled professionals to discuss your specific concerns and desired outcomes. Once we’ve determined a neuromodulator is the right choice for you, we’ll proceed with the treatment.
During the procedure, you’ll be comfortably seated in one of our treatment rooms. We’ll cleanse the targeted area, typically the forehead, between the eyebrows, or around the eyes, to ensure it’s free of makeup or oils. Then, using a very fine needle, we’ll make a series of small injections into the muscles responsible for the wrinkles you want to address. While you may feel a slight pin prick or stinging sensation, most patients find discomfort to be minimal.
The entire process usually takes 10-15 minutes, and you can go about your day almost immediately after the treatment. Some patients experience mild redness or swelling at the injection sites, but these typically subside within a few hours to a day. The neuromodulator will gradually take effect over a few days to a week, resulting in smoother skin. The final results last 3 to 6 months, following which the treatment can be repeated.
