Anti-Wrinkle Injections (Botox & Nuceiva)

About the Treatment

Anti-wrinkle injections, also known as neuromodulators are a non-surgical cosmetic treatment used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It works by temporarily relaxing facial muscles, which helps smooth out dynamic wrinkles caused by expressions such as smiling, frowning, or squinting. Commonly treated areas include forehead lines, crow’s feet around the eyes, and frown lines between the eyebrows. The procedure is quick, with minimal discomfort and no downtime, making it a convenient option for those seeking a refreshed, youthful appearance.

THE BENEFITS:

  • Reduces Wrinkles and Fine Lines:
    Anti-Wrinkle Injections smooths out dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive facial expressions, such as crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines between the eyebrows.
  • Non-Surgical and Minimally Invasive:
    The procedure involves quick, virtually painless injections without the need for surgery, making it a popular choice for those seeking anti-aging solutions without invasive procedures.
  • Quick Results with No Downtime:
    Results typically appear within a few days, and there’s no recovery time required, allowing you to return to your daily activities.
  • Prevents Future Wrinkles:
    By temporarily relaxing facial muscles, Anti-Wrinkle Injections can prevent the deepening or formation of new wrinkles over time.
  • Subtle and Natural-Looking Results:
    When administered correctly, Anti-Wrinkle Injections provides a refreshed appearance without looking “frozen” or overdone.
  • Customizable:
    Anti-Wrinkle Injections can be tailored to target specific areas of concern based on individual needs and facial anatomy.
  • Lifts and Enhances Facial Features:
    It can also be used to create a subtle brow lift, enhance the appearance of lips, and smooth out chin dimples for a more youthful look.

How it Works?

Anti-Wrinkle Injections are derived from botulinum toxin type A, a purified protein that blocks nerve signals to muscles. When injected into targeted areas, it prevents the release of a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine, which is responsible for muscle contractions. Without these signals, the muscles temporarily relax.

    To reduce horizontal lines across the forehead.
  • Glabellar Lines (Frown Lines):
    Between the eyebrows, commonly known as “11” lines.

Reviews From Our Happy Clients

“The Oxygen facial itself was nothing short of amazing. Denisha was thorough, ensuring every step of the process was carefully explained, and she tailored the treatment to my specific skin needs..”

I recently had the pleasure of receiving an Oxygen facial, and I cannot express enough how impressed I was with the outstanding customer service and professionalism throughout the entire experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by Christina with warmth and attentiveness, which made me feel incredibly welcome.

 

Overall, the experience was exceptional. The combination of top-notch service, professionalism, and an incredible facial treatment has left me with glowing skin and a lasting impression. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a truly rejuvenating experience.

“Finally I did an oxygenio facial with Rabiie. It was great for my skin after a couple months in the summer and left me looking fresh and rejuvenated..”

I just did my first Russian manicure with Anastasiya and all I can say is WOW. I’ve been doing shellac manicures for years now and it has almost become a burden to schedule it every 2 weeks because the shellac always peels and looks grown out after about a week. My manicure with Anastasiya was impeccable. She spent her time making sure my cuticles were impeccable and then took her time doing the shellac. I’ve never had a more perfect manicure. It’s been a few weeks now and it still looks great! It takes a little bit longer (1.5 hours) but totally worth the time and money if I only have to go every month or so.

 

All in all, a great couple of hours spent pampering myself at this spa. The space is gorgeous and makes it easy to relax (something I rarely get as a mom of 3).

 

Highly recommend!

“Definitely now my go-to recommendation for nails! Had a pedicure with Binoda and she was absolutely amazing.”

On the pricier side for a pedicure (expected for Liberty Village of course), but worth every penny as someone who works 10+ hours on their feet everyday and hasn’t gotten anywhere close to this type of treatment at your typical nail salon.

 

Customer service is also amazing, a woman came in during my treatment and I happened to overhear the conversation. She was very rude and confrontational right from the start, the employee at the desk handled the entire interaction a heck of a lot better than I would’ve if I were her.
10/10 overall!

“If you’ve never tried it, it’s worth every penny and you won’t understand the difference until you try it. ”

CURES Beaute is by far the best nail place I’ve been to in Toronto!! Being originally from New York City and having tried a lot of nail places in my lifetime, I would say I’m pretty picky. Anastasia is the absolutely best and gave me my first life-changing Russian manicure, and I now go back regularly for one

 

She has a level of detail and precision like no other technician I’ve been to, her care is top notch, she’s kind, and I leave with the most impeccable nails!! The way she cuts your cuticles prevents that annoying thing that happens with a gel manicure where you start to have a space between the cuticle and nail color as your nails grow. If Anastasia isn’t available, Emilie is also very good and sweet! Customer service from both is 10/10!

- Erin Switzer

“The level of care and detail she put into my manicure was out of this world, she also shaped and painted my nails beautifully.”

Wow – Not to be dramatic but I got my nails done by Disha, and she gave me hands down the BEST manicure of my entire life. Not kidding.

 

She really listened to what I was asking for, and, gave great advice as well. If that’s not enough she was also so kind and lovely as well. CURES overall was a great experience – super cleanly, super professional. Top level experience for an appropriate price. Never thought I’d “have a nail place”, but I will only be going to CURES moving forward, and asking for Disha every time!
