In simple terms
Neuromodulators are injections that temporarily relax the muscles behind expression lines. By easing these targeted muscles, the forehead, the area between the brows and the corners of the eyes look smoother and more rested. The result stays natural: your expressions remain your own, simply softened.
What we use, and why
We use Health Canada–approved botulinum toxins type A. Used in medicine for decades, this molecule temporarily and selectively blocks the nerve signal that contracts the muscle, without affecting the surrounding tissue.
The product, dosage and injection points are chosen according to your anatomy and the strength of your muscles. This precision softens lines without freezing the face: the goal is never to alter your features, but to preserve natural movement while easing marks of tension.

Is it right for you?
Who it’s for
For those bothered by expression lines (forehead, brows, around the eyes) who want a natural, rested result — or who wish to prevent these lines from setting in.
Contraindications
Pregnancy and breastfeeding, certain neuromuscular conditions, known allergy to the components, active infection in the area. A medical assessment precedes every treatment.
What this treatment cannot do
It does not restore lost volume or deep folds at rest (the role of fillers), and it does not correct significant skin laxity, which calls for other treatments or surgery.
Realistic expectations
The effect appears within a few days and settles around two weeks. It usually lasts 3 to 4 months; regular maintenance keeps the result.
Preventive treatment
Used early and in moderation, neuromodulators can slow the formation of expression lines before they become permanently etched.
Medispa room
The treatment takes place in our high-end medispa space, in a private setting that meets medical standards. It is performed by a qualified member of our team, following strict hygiene and sterilization protocols.
What happens, step by step
Before
We assess your muscles and your goals, then map the injection points. No particular preparation is needed; avoiding alcohol and certain anti-inflammatories may be advised to limit bruising.
During
After cleansing the skin, the product is delivered in a few precise injections using a very fine needle. You feel a brief pinching sensation. The treatment takes 15 to 30 minutes.
After
Mild redness or small bumps may appear and fade quickly. You leave right away and resume your activities, following the guidelines for the first 24 hours.
What to expect, and when
First few days
The first effects appear after 3 to 5 days, as the targeted muscles relax.
First few weeks
The result settles around two weeks: expression lines are visibly softened, with no loss of naturalness.
Result longevity
The effect usually lasts 3 to 4 months. Regular sessions maintain the result and may, over time, space out treatments.
