Low Sun, High Strain<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

In the winter, the sun sits lower in the sky, casting glare that is often harder to tolerate than the overhead summer sun. Additionally,\u00a0cold wind\u00a0causes muscles to tense and squint involuntarily. This constant, forceful contraction of the\u00a0<\/span>corrugator<\/span><\/i>\u00a0and\u00a0<\/span>orbicularis oculi<\/span><\/i>\u00a0muscles etches dynamic wrinkles deeper into your skin.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The Power of Prevention<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Neuromodulators (like Botox or\u00a0Xeomin) work by temporarily relaxing the muscles responsible for these repetitive movements. By treating these areas now, you “winter-proof” your skin, stopping the muscle strain that would otherwise contribute to permanent etching\u2014turning dynamic lines into static (permanent) ones.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Frown Lines (The “11s”)<\/span><\/b><\/p>

This is the most common and effective winter treatment area. Relaxing the muscles between the brows prevents the severe furrowing caused by squinting, ensuring you look calm, rested, and approachable, regardless of the weather.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Crow’s Feet<\/span><\/b><\/p>

The tiny lines around the eyes are often\u00a0exacerbated\u00a0by both squinting and dry winter air. A small, carefully placed treatment can smooth these lines, giving your eyes a bright, open appearance without compromising your smile.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Forehead Lines<\/span><\/b><\/p>

Treating the forehead prevents the compensating muscle strain that often occurs when you try to open your eyes wider while squinting.\u00a0Maintaining\u00a0smooth forehead skin helps to preserve your overall youthful appearance throughout the darker months.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Longevity of Results<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Results from neuromodulators typically last 3\u20134 months. Scheduling your treatment early in the winter ensures you are protected throughout the harshest months and look your best for the holiday season and beyond.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
