At 5th Avenue Plastic Surgery in Delray Beach, we specialize in advanced non-surgical treatments to rejuvenate your appearance. Our range of neuromodulators—including Botox, Jeuveau, Dysport, Daxxify, Xeomin, and dermal fillers like Juvederm, Restylane, Radiesse, Sculptra, and Renuva—offers personalized solutions for smoother, younger-looking skin. Let’s explore these options to help you decide which treatment aligns with your aesthetic goals.

Understanding Neuromodulators and Dermal Fillers

Neuromodulators like Botox, Jeauveau, Dysport, and Xeomin temporarily relax facial muscles to reduce dynamic wrinkles (e.g., crow’s feet, frown lines). While dermal fillers including Juvéderm, Restylane, Radiesse, Sculptra, and Renuva add volume to areas affected by static wrinkles or loss of collagen. Each treatment is customizable, ensuring natural-looking results tailored to your unique facial structure.

Comparing Our Injectable Treatments

Neuromodulators

Botox®: Trusted Standard for Wrinkle Relaxation
Botox remains the most recognized neuromodulator for treating moderate to severe dynamic wrinkles, such as forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet.

  • Onset: Results typically start appearing within 3–5 days, with full effect by 2 weeks.
  • Duration: Effects usually last around 3–4 months, with some patients experiencing results for up to 6 months.
  • Formulation: Contains stabilizing proteins, which help maintain its efficacy. In rare cases, these proteins may contribute to the development of antibody resistance over time.
  • Highlights: Considered the gold standard for precision treatment and targeted wrinkle smoothing

Jeuveau: Modern Approach to Wrinkle Reduction

Jeuveau is a newer neuromodulator designed exclusively for aesthetic use. It offers similar results to other wrinkle-relaxing treatments, with a focus on smoothing frown lines and other dynamic wrinkles. Many patients choose it for its sleek formulation and consistent results.

Dysport®: Fast-Acting and Ideal for Larger Areas
Dysport offers a slightly faster onset and broader diffusion compared to Botox, making it ideal for treating larger areas like the forehead.

  • Onset: Results can begin within 2–3 days, with full effect by 7–14 days.
  • Duration: Effects generally last about 3–4 months.
  • Formulation: Contains stabilizing proteins similar to Botox, with a molecular size that allows for a softer, more blended look across wider areas.
  • Highlights: A great option for achieving smooth, natural-looking results in expansive treatment zones

Xeomin: Pure and Protein-Free

Xeomin stands out as the only “naked” neurotoxin, free of complexing proteins. This reduces the risk of allergic reactions or resistance, making it ideal for long-term use. Results appear within 7 days and last 3–4 months.

Juvederm: Volume Restoration

While not a neuromodulator, Juvederm complements these treatments by restoring volume in areas like the cheeks, lips, and nasolabial folds. Its hyaluronic acid formula provides immediate results with minimal downtime.

Restylane: Versatile Volume and Definition

Restylane offers a range of formulations designed to address different facial areas, from under-eye hollows to lip enhancement. Its hyaluronic acid base provides smooth, natural-looking volume and structure. Most patients enjoy results lasting 6–12 months.

Radiesse: Collagen-Stimulating Filler

Radiesse not only restores volume but also stimulates your body’s natural collagen production over time. It’s especially effective for deeper folds and contouring the jawline or hands. Results are immediate and can last a year or more.

Sculptra: Gradual, Long-Lasting Rejuvenation

Sculptra works differently than traditional fillers by encouraging collagen growth over time. It’s ideal for patients seeking subtle, progressive enhancement that lasts up to two years. A series of treatments delivers natural-looking volume restoration and improved skin texture.

Renuva: Natural Fat Replacement

Renuva is an injectable treatment designed to replace age-related volume loss with your body’s own fat-like tissue. It gradually encourages the growth of natural fat cells in targeted areas, offering a soft, organic look and feel. Over time, Renuva integrates seamlessly for long-lasting fullness.

Specialized and Lesser-Known Neurotoxin Treatments

Jelly Roll Neurotoxin Treatment (Under-Eye Puffiness)

A newer yet highly effective use of neuromodulators is the “jelly roll” treatment. Here, small amounts of Botox (or similar neurotoxins) are injected into the orbicularis oculi muscle just beneath the lower eyelid. This technique softens the under-eye “jelly roll”—the puffy area that appears when smiling or squinting—by relaxing the muscle responsible for this bulge. The result is a smoother, more refreshed under-eye area with minimal downtime and subtle, natural-looking improvement. This treatment is especially popular among patients seeking to reduce under-eye puffiness without surgery, and results typically last 3–4 months.

Chin Neurotoxin Treatment (Chin Dimpling and Tension)

Another effective but less widely known use of neuromodulators is for chin reshaping. Neurotoxin injections (such as Botox or Dysport) are strategically placed in the mentalis muscle of the chin to smooth excessive dimpling—commonly known as “pebble chin”—and relax tension that can cause puckering or an uneven appearance. This approach results in a softer, more balanced chin contour and can also enhance overall facial harmony. Treatment is quick, requires no downtime, and results last about 3–4 months.

Customizing Your Treatment

At 5th Avenue Plastic Surgery, our experts assess your skin type, muscle movement, and aesthetic goals to recommend the best options for you. After your consultation, we will recommend the ideal combination of injectable treatments — whether you’re looking to smooth fine lines, soften deep-set wrinkles, or restore lost volume.
We offer a full range of neuromodulators and dermal fillers, allowing us to tailor each treatment plan to achieve natural-looking, balanced results that reflect your individual beauty.

Recovery and Results

All neuromodulators require minimal downtime. We recommend avoiding rubbing or applying pressure to the treated areas for at least 24 hours. Results will gradually appear over several days, depending on the specific product used.
Dermal fillers may cause mild swelling, tenderness, or bruising, which typically subsides within about one week. Our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions to help ensure the best possible outcome and a smooth recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose between Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, and Jeuveau?
The right choice depends on factors such as your medical history, the treatment area, your goals, and personal preferences. Some patients prioritize a faster onset, while others prefer a more purified product. During your consultation, we’ll discuss these factors in detail to recommend the best option for you.

How long do results last?
Neuromodulators generally provide results that last around 3–4 months, depending on the product and individual metabolism. Dermal fillers like Juvederm typically last between 6–12 months, depending on the specific formulation and treatment area.

Is there a “best” option for Boca Raton patients?
There is no single “best” injectable treatment for everyone. We customize each non-surgical treatment plan to meet your specific needs and goals, delivering refreshed, natural-looking results that enhance — not change — your unique features.
