Wrinkle relaxers
Neurotoxins such as Botox® relax the muscles that cause expression lines on the forehead, between the brows, and around the eyes.

Smoother skin with a plan made for you
Lines tend to appear gradually: first as faint creases when you smile or frown, then as lines that stay even when your face is relaxed. They’re a normal part of aging, but you don’t have to accept them if they bother you.
At KDR Aesthetics + Wellness, we look at what’s behind your lines, whether that’s muscle movement, thinning skin, volume loss, or sun damage, and match each cause with the right treatment.
Many patients see the best results from a combination of approaches, planned over time.
Schedule a consultationWhat are fine lines and wrinkles?
Fine lines are shallow creases in the skin’s surface, often around the eyes, mouth, and forehead. Wrinkles are deeper folds that form as the skin loses collagen, elastin, and hydration. Some lines appear only with movement, known as dynamic wrinkles, while others remain at rest, known as static wrinkles. Understanding which type you have helps determine the most effective treatment.
What causes fine lines and wrinkles?
Lines develop from a mix of natural aging and everyday habits, including:
- Gradual loss of collagen and elastin
- Sun exposure
- Repeated facial expressions
- Smoking
- Dehydration and poor sleep
Some factors can’t be changed, but protecting your skin and treating early can slow how quickly lines deepen.
Signs of fine lines and wrinkles
Lines show up differently for everyone, depending on genetics, skin type, and lifestyle.
Common signs include:
- Creases around the eyes
- Lines across the forehead
- Vertical lines between the brows
- Smile lines around the mouth
- Crepey or thinning skin
If lines are starting to linger after your expression relaxes, it may be a good time to consider treatment.

- Have thinning or crepey skin and would like to improve firmness and texture gradually.
- Prefer natural-looking results from treatments with little downtime.
Frequently asked questions
What’s the best treatment for wrinkles?
It depends on the type of line. Expression lines respond well to wrinkle relaxers, while deeper or static lines may need fillers, collagen stimulators, or resurfacing.
When will I see results?
Wrinkle relaxers start working within days, fillers show results right away, and collagen-building treatments improve gradually over several weeks to months.
Can I combine treatments?
Yes. Combining treatments often gives the most complete result, because each targets a different cause of aging.
How can I prevent new lines?
Daily sunscreen, good skincare, staying hydrated, avoiding smoking, and early preventive treatment all help slow the formation of new lines.
