Botox + Wrinkle Relaxers
Refresh Your Expression—Not Your Identity
Fine lines and wrinkles are a natural part of aging, but they do not define how vibrant or confident you feel. At Unseen Medical Aesthetics, wrinkle relaxers are never about freezing your face or creating an artificial look. They are about softening expression lines, restoring facial harmony, and helping you look like the most rested, refreshed version of yourself.
Led by Dr. Jessica Lebental, DNP, FNP-BC, every treatment begins with a comprehensive facial assessment that considers your anatomy, muscle movement, skin quality, and aesthetic goals. Rather than chasing trends or over-treating isolated areas, we create personalized treatment plans designed to preserve natural expression while delivering elegant, understated results.
Serving patients throughout Westchester County, including Dobbs Ferry, Irvington, Ardsley, Hastings-on-Hudson, Scarsdale, White Plains, and surrounding communities, our boutique practice combines medical expertise, precision, and artistry to achieve refined results.

Wrinkle relaxers are advanced injectable treatments designed to soften dynamic wrinkles, the lines created by repeated facial movements such as smiling, frowning, squinting, and raising the eyebrows.
At Unseen Medical Aesthetics, wrinkle relaxers are used as a tool for facial refinement, not facial transformation. By carefully relaxing targeted muscles, we can soften the appearance of expression lines while maintaining your natural movement, personality, and individuality.
The goal is not to make you look different. The goal is to help you look refreshed, balanced, and naturally rejuvenated.
Wrinkle relaxers work by temporarily reducing communication between nerves and specific muscles, decreasing repetitive contractions that contribute to wrinkles over time. With precise placement and thoughtful dosing, treatment can help soften:
Forehead lines
Frown lines between the brows (“11s”)
Crow’s feet around the eyes
Bunny lines around the nose
Lip lines
Chin dimpling
Downturned mouth corners
Neck bands
Beyond wrinkle reduction, expert use of neuromodulators can also help refine facial balance through subtle techniques such as a brow lift, lip flip, or masseter treatment when appropriate.

Botox®, Dysport®, Daxxify®, Xeomin®, and Letybo®
Today’s aesthetic medicine offers several FDA-approved and clinically studied wrinkle relaxer options. While these treatments share a similar mechanism of action, temporarily reducing muscle contractions that contribute to expression lines, each formulation has unique characteristics.
At Unseen Medical Aesthetics, the choice of wrinkle relaxer is never based on a single “best” product. The best treatment is the one that is best suited to your facial anatomy, muscle dynamics, treatment goals, and desired outcome.

At Unseen Medical Aesthetics, your wrinkle relaxer experience begins long before the first injection. We believe the best results come from a thoughtful consultation, a personalized treatment plan, and a clear understanding of your goals.
Step 1: Personalized Consultation and Facial Assessment
Every treatment begins with a comprehensive evaluation with Dr. Jessica Lebental, DNP, FNP-BC.
During your consultation, we will discuss:
Your aesthetic goals and areas of concern
Your previous experience with injectables, if applicable
Your facial movement patterns and muscle activity
Your skin quality and overall facial balance
Your desired level of correction, from subtle refinement to more noticeable softening
Dr. Lebental evaluates your face dynamically, observing how your muscles move during expressions such as smiling, frowning, and raising your brows. This allows for a customized approach that enhances your features while maintaining natural expression.
Step 2: Customized Treatment Planning
There is no universal formula for wrinkle relaxers. The number of units, injection points, and product selection are tailored to your individual anatomy.
Your treatment plan may address areas including:
Forehead lines
Frown lines between the brows
Crow’s feet
Bunny lines
Lip lines
Chin dimpling
Downturned mouth corners
Neck bands
For some patients, a subtle preventative approach may be appropriate. For others, treatment may focus on softening established expression lines. Our goal is always to create balanced, natural-looking results.
Step 3: Precise Injection Treatment
Wrinkle relaxer treatments are performed using advanced injection techniques designed for comfort, accuracy, and safety.
Most appointments take approximately 20–30 minutes depending on the areas being treated. The injections involve a series of tiny placements into specific muscles using a fine needle.
Many patients describe the sensation as a quick pinch, and treatment typically requires little to no downtime.
Step 4: Aftercare and Recovery
One of the benefits of wrinkle relaxer treatments is that patients can typically return to their normal activities immediately afterward.
After your appointment, you may experience:
Mild redness at injection sites
Small raised areas that resolve quickly
Occasional bruising or tenderness
To support optimal results, patients are generally advised to:
Avoid rubbing or massaging treated areas immediately after treatment
Follow personalized aftercare instructions
Remain upright for the recommended period after treatment
Avoid strenuous activity immediately after treatment if advised
Dr. Lebental will provide specific aftercare recommendations based on your treatment plan.

Who Is a Good Candidate?
Wrinkle relaxers may be an excellent option for adults who want to soften expression lines, refresh their appearance, and maintain a natural-looking result without surgery.
Ideal candidates are typically individuals who:
Notice lines forming with facial expressions such as smiling, frowning, or raising the brows
Want to soften forehead lines, frown lines, or crow’s feet
Prefer a refreshed appearance while maintaining their natural expressions
Are looking for a preventative approach to facial aging
Understand that results are subtle, gradual, and personalized
Wrinkle relaxers can be appropriate for a wide range of ages and aesthetic goals. Some patients begin treatment when early expression lines appear, while others start later to soften more established wrinkles.
During your consultation, Dr. Jessica Lebental will assess your facial anatomy, muscle movement, skin quality, and aesthetic goals to determine whether wrinkle relaxers are the right treatment for you.

Who May Not Be an Ideal Candidate?
Wrinkle relaxers may not be appropriate for everyone. Your safety is always the priority.
A consultation is important if you:
Are pregnant or breastfeeding
Have certain neuromuscular conditions
Have an active skin infection or irritation in the planned treatment area
Have had previous reactions to botulinum toxin products
Have specific medical considerations that require additional evaluation
Dr. Lebental will review your medical history and discuss the safest approach for your individual situation.

Wrinkle relaxers do not work instantly. Results develop gradually as the treated muscles begin to relax.

Wrinkle Relaxers vs. Dermal Fillers
One of the most common questions patients ask is: “Do I need Botox or filler? While both are injectable aesthetic treatments, they address different aspects of facial aging.
Wrinkle Relaxers: Treating Muscle Movement
Wrinkle relaxers work by temporarily reducing the activity of specific muscles that create dynamic wrinkles.
They are commonly used for:
Forehead lines
Frown lines between the brows
Crow’s feet
Other expression-related wrinkles
Dermal Fillers: Restoring Volume and Structure
Dermal fillers work differently. They are designed to restore volume, enhance contours, and support areas that have experienced age-related changes.
Fillers may be used to address:
Loss of facial volume
Cheek support
Lip enhancement
Facial balancing
Chin and jawline refinement
Structural changes associated with aging
Your face tells your story. Your treatment should enhance it, not rewrite it.
