Smooth, Natural Results — Without Surgery
Fine lines and wrinkles are a regular part of aging, but that doesn’t mean you have to live with them.
If you’ve been considering a neuromodulator treatment and want a safe, medically guided approach that looks natural, you’re in the right place.
At Central Alberta Dermatology, every neuromodulator treatment is performed with a medical approach focused on safety, subtlety, and natural movement.
Book your consultation to discover how neuromodulators can help smooth lines and restore your confidence — without surgery or downtime.
Popular areas: Forehead, frown lines, crow’s feet, jawline, lip flip, chin dimpling.
Why patients love it: Fast, virtually painless, zero downtime.
We also use neuromodulators to treat increased sweating, migraines, and TMJ pain.
What Are Neuromodulators?
Neuromodulators are injectable treatments that relax the tiny muscles responsible for expression lines.
When these muscles temporarily stop contracting, the overlying skin appears smoother and more refreshed.
Common treatment areas include:
- Frown lines (between the brows)
- Forehead lines
- Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
At Central Alberta Dermatology, these treatments are administered by board-certified dermatologist or by a medical esthetician who specialize in facial anatomy and aesthetic balance, ensuring your results look refreshed, not frozen.
How Neuromodulators Work
Neuromodulators contain a purified protein that temporarily blocks nerve signals to specific facial muscles.
This relaxation allows your skin to smooth out naturally, while still maintaining facial expression and movement.
The effects typically appear within 3–5 days, reach their peak around two weeks, and last for three to four months.
With consistent treatment, fine lines often soften over time — even between sessions.

What to expect?
Before Treatment
You’ll start with a consultation to discuss your skin goals and review your medical background.
Our dermatologist, Dr. Thomas, will examine your facial movements and mark precise injection points.
During Treatment
A fine needle delivers small amounts of neuromodulator into the targeted muscles.
Most patients find the treatment quick and well-tolerated — often described as a light pinch.
After Treatment
You can return to your day immediately after your appointment.
Minor redness or swelling may occur but typically resolves within hours.
Avoid strenuous activity or lying flat for four hours post-treatment.
Results begin appearing within a few days and reach full effect in about two weeks.
