Neuromodulators work by relaxing the muscles that cause wrinkles, giving your face a more relaxed and refreshed appearance. Best of all, regular use of this simple treatment will soften expression lines and help “stop the clock”. Treatment is so quick and easy that you can often have it done over lunch. This treatment has become the most popular physician-administered cosmetic treatment in North America with an estimated 3 million treatments performed annually. Botox cosmetic treatments have been shown to be effective in the treatment of a variety of complaints, including:
○ Frown lines ○ Forehead lines ○ Crow’s feet ○ Bunny lines ○ Brow lift ○ Gummy smile ○ Lip reshaping ○ Chin dimpling
Use Botox Therapeutic for relief of:
○ Hyperhydrosis (excess sweating) ○ Headache/Migraines ○ TMJ/Teeth clenching ○ Tight neck bands
This treatment takes 3 to 10 days until the effects start to show, and results last 3 to 4 months. Over time, with upkeep of treatments, muscles start to atrophy (like any muscle that is not working!) and you will likely need less product with greater time span between treatments, e.g. 6 monthly.
After Care Instructions:
Do not massage the treated area
Do not exercise excessively for the first 24 hours
Avoid lying down for 4 hours after the treatment
Bruising is common and Arnica Montana tablets may be taken for this

With fillers, you can discover the secret of self-expression, giving you more freedom to look the way you want. Dermal fillers allow you to reduce lines and wrinkles, restore volume and enhance the fullness of your lips to create the appearance you desire. Quick and immediate, fillers let you define yourself on your own terms. Dr. Leeuwner uses a range of fillers to create and natural yet fuller and more youthful appearance.
The secret of fillers is hyaluronic acid, a natural substance already present in the human body. It plays a very important role in giving firmness to the skin, shaping the eyes and lubricating joints. It has the ability to attract and bind to water molecules to help maintain volume. It’s fully biocompatible and its crystal-clear gel is injected into the skin to create a more distinctive personal appearance. Dr. Leeuwner will choose the right product combination to create the look you want for the following areas
○ Ease forehead lines ○ Smooth away lines in the eye area ○ Eyebrow lift ○ Tear troughs
○ Cheek lift ○ Minimize vertical smile lines ○ Lip sculpting ○Reshaping chin & jaw line
And more!
