Good Candidates for Wrinkle Smoother Injections
BOTOX and Nuceiva are well-known for its success with smoothing out forehead wrinkles and lines around the eyes. It is also effective for women and men in their 20s and early 30s who are seeing early signs of aging and want to look fresh, happier, and more revitalized. Because BOTOX and Nuceiva work by temporarily relaxing the muscles that create dynamic wrinkles, such as crow’s feet, treatment as a young adult can delay the formation of those lines.
Will BOTOX and Nuceiva Make Me Look Younger?
BOTOX and Nuceiva are great options for those who want to restore a calmer, more rested appearance to the eye area. It safely and effectively smoothes away the lines that are caused when we repeatedly make facial expressions, called “dynamic” wrinkles. We often use neuromodulators for:
- Softening crow’s feet at the outer corners of the eyes
- Diminishing vertical frown lines between the eyebrows
- Relaxing horizontal forehead furrows sometimes called worry lines
- Subtle brow lift
- Slimmer face/ Defined Jawline
- Neck rejuvenation
- Gummy smile treatment
- Smooth out wrinkles on the chin, also known as chinulite
How Do BOTOX and Nuceiva Work?
BOTOX Cosmetic has been approved for cosmetic use in Canada since 2001. When injected into tiny facial muscles, it softens wrinkles by temporarily preventing the muscles from contracting. This process is called cosmetic denervation. Without the repeated muscle contractions, the overlying skin is able to gradually smooth out.
What to Expect
BOTOX and Nuceiva treatments require no anaesthesia because there is very little discomfort involved. We know our patients’ time is valuable; our BOTOX and Nuceiva patients appreciate that their appointments are efficient without being rushed. Here’s what you can expect when you schedule a wrinkle-smoothing appointment at Cosmedica:
- Injections take about 10 to 15 minutes.
- BOTOX and Nuceiva work gradually, taking up to 14 days to see results.
- Patients often schedule 3 to 4 appointments during the year to maintain the results.
Research suggests that consistent use of wrinkle-smoothing injections can cause the effects to last longer. BOTOX and Nuceiva treat wrinkles and other expression lines; it is not meant to tighten the skin that begins to lose its elasticity as we age. If your goal is to tighten your skin and get a lift you may want to consider our Ulthera Skin Tightening Device or Facial Fillers .
Did you know BOTOX can be injected for Hyperhidrosis, aka, Excessive Sweating?
What is hyperhidrosis? Hyperhidrosis is an abnormal excessive sweating disorder. This at times can disrupt your life and be extremely embarrassing. You may sweat so much to soak up your shirt and being dripping from your hands or feet. Many people experience this, bare with the suffering, and modify their lifestyle to ‘hide’ their issue. Stop worrying and stressing – we’ve got your back!
At Cosmedica we have a safe, easy solution which relaxes the sweat glands and leaves you dry and fresh all day long. This treatment is approved by Health Canada and has been around for decades helping patients of all ages from young teens to late adult years. It involves a series of very tiny injections in the area with excessive sweating. Total treatment time is about 15 minutes and results from one treatment last up to a year.
Call us at 905-631-6288 to schedule your hyperhidrosis excessive sweating treatment! Perfect for brides, men in suits, teenagers or anyone who is sweaty and wants to feel confident and fresh!

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do wrinkle smoothing injections cost?
Like other clinics, we price by the unit here at Cosmedica. Our wrinkle smoother prices are on a pricing scale, meaning that the more units you obtain during a treatment the lower cost will be per unit. A customized treatment plan will be created for you, during your consultation, according to your needs and budget.
Will my face look expressionless or frozen after treatment?
We pride ourselves in delivering natural and safe outcomes. At Cosmedica, we perform wrinkle smoothing treatments to erase the lines and creases that give others the wrong impression while allowing the expressions that are a natural part of your personality to shine through. We take a conservative approach, and our practitioners have a wealth of experience producing beautiful, natural-looking results.
What’s the difference between BOTOX, Nuceiva, and dermal fillers?
BOTOX and Nuceiva and dermal fillers are all safe, simple injectable treatments that effectively soften wrinkles; however, they work in different ways. Dermal fillers can replace lost volume under the skin to smooth out wrinkles from below immediately. As their name implies, these products essentially fill in wrinkles. BOTOX and Nuceiva treat wrinkles by stopping contractions of the muscles that create them, enabling the overlying skin to gradually smooth out.
Can BOTOX, Nuceiva and dermal fillers be used together?
Yes. It is safe to use BOTOX or Nuceiva in combination with injectable fillers. Because these wrinkle treatments work in different ways, it is often beneficial to have them performed together to address multiple signs of aging at once. Fillers can restore lost volume to sunken or sagging cheeks and fill in folds around the mouth. BOTOX or Nuceiva can smooth out lines on the forehead and wrinkles around the eyes. Together, these complementary treatments may give you an even fresher, more rested appearance than when used on their own.
Will I need to take time out for recovery after my wrinkle smoothing treatment?
One of the many advantages of BOTOX or Nuceiva treatments is that you can return to work and other daily activities right afterward. For the first few hours after treatment, we recommend that you refrain from strenuous exercise, avoid putting pressure on treated areas, and keep your head elevated.
How long do wrinkle smoothing treatments last?
The improvements from BOTOX and Nuceiva treatments last about 3 to 4 months, dependent on treatment area. Previous lines and wrinkles will gradually return naturally. You can maintain your refreshed look by visiting Cosmedica for regular maintenance treatments.
Can BOTOX and Nuceiva be combined with other procedures?
Yes, at Cosmedica we can create a customized treatment plan designed to address your specific skin concerns. For example, Dr. Weiglein may recommend laser skin resurfacing alongside injections of BOTOX and dermal fillers. A customized chemical or laser peel can also complement your BOTOX treatment.
Do many men get BOTOX and Nuceiva?
BOTOX has become one of the most popular cosmetic procedures among men. Its popularity has even spawned a name: “Brotox.” Men are increasingly coming to Cosmedica for BOTOX and Nuceiva, fillers, or other nonsurgical treatments. Social media has helped normalize it, as sharing photos of yourself on prof{“type”:”block”,”srcIndex”:1,”srcClientId”:”15566775-79e4-4687-9095-769842a8cdc0″,”srcRootClientId”:””}essional and social sites has become commonplace. More and more men are choosing to get aesthetic treatments than in the past.
