Pre- & Post- Procedure Skincare

Neuromodulators

Neuromodulators such as Botox®, XEOMIN®, Dysport®, and Nuceiva® temporarily reduce targeted muscle activity, helping soften the appearance of dynamic fine lines and wrinkles while leaving the surrounding skin intact.

While neuromodulators address muscle-related expression lines, the quality of the surrounding skin—including hydration, texture, radiance, and the appearance of fine lines—continues to influence the overall result.

A targeted skincare routine can help support smoother, hydrated, healthier-looking skin across the entire face, including areas beyond injection sites.

Always follow the aftercare instructions provided by your treatment professional.

What are Neuromodulator Injectables?

Neuromodulators temporarily reduce nerve-to-muscle signaling, decreasing muscle contractions that contribute to dynamic expression lines. Their effects are temporary and localized to the treated muscles.

  • Perioral and chin lines 
  • Vertical neck bands 
  • Downturned or heavy-looking expression

Understanding the Neuromodulator Treatment Timeline

Neuromodulator results develop gradually rather than immediately. Supporting the skin throughout this period can help maintain hydration, comfort, and overall skin quality.

  • First 24 Hours: Settle

    Allow treated areas to settle and follow your provider’s aftercare instructions.

    Skincare priority: Gentle hydration and barrier support.
  • Days 2–7: Onset

    Muscle activity gradually decreases, and expression lines begin to soften.

    Skincare priority: Hydration and support for smooth, healthy-looking skin.
  • Week 2+: Full Effect & Maintenance

    Results become established, while facial movement gradually returns over the following months.

    Skincare priority: Ongoing support for hydration, texture, radiance, and the appearance of fine lines across the face.

A Multifunctional Approach to Facial Rejuvenation

Neuromodulators primarily address muscle-related expression lines. Targeted skincare can complement treatment by addressing broader visible signs of skin aging beyond the treated muscles

novoLUX™ nano . peptide . glow, formulated with Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 (AH-8), provides targeted peptide skincare to support smoother, hydrated, radiant, and healthier-looking skin across the face—including areas beyond neuromodulator injection sites. 

Powered by LNP-3™ nano-delivery technology, novoLUX is engineered to facilitate the penetration and dermal delivery of AH-8 through intact skin while maintaining a lightweight, non-greasy feel. 

This approach extends rejuvenation beyond the treated muscles by combining neuromodulator treatment with targeted skincare designed to support the overall appearance and quality of the skin.

Questions, answered

The science, made clear.

Explore common questions about our technology, formulations and approach to topical skincare.

Can nano · peptide · glow be used as a daily moisturizer between neuromodulator injections such as Botox?

novoLUX™ nano · peptide · glow is an ideal daily moisturizer to complement your in-office treatments. While Botox targets muscle activity, nano · peptide · glow focuses on the skin itself, helping support smoother, firmer and more radiant skin. 

Its peptide complex, including Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, helps soften the appearance of expression lines while supporting skin firmness, elasticity, and texture. It can be especially useful for areas that are typically not treated with injections, helping maintain an overall smooth appearance between Botox sessions. 

As always, follow your injector's specific aftercare guidance and generally avoid areas directly around injection sites in the first few days post-treatment. 

When can I use skincare after neuromodulator injections?

Follow the instructions provided by your injector. They can advise when to resume or apply skincare based on the location of your injections and your individual treatment plan.

Why use skincare if neuromodulators already soften wrinkles? 

Neuromodulators primarily target dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated muscle contraction, but they do not address all of the visible signs of skin aging. Fine lines can also be influenced by dehydration, reduced collagen and elastin, loss of elasticity, changes in skin texture, and changes in skin firmness following significant weight loss

Skincare works alongside neuromodulators by addressing these skin-level factors and supporting the skin’s natural repair and renewal processes. With consistent use, novoLUX™ peptide · glow is designed to support hydration, collagen and elastin appearance, skin texture, firmness, and elasticity—helping improve the appearance of fine lines and maintain a smoother, healthier, more radiant complexion between treatments and over time. 

Why use skincare if neuromodulators already soften wrinkles?


Neuromodulators primarily target dynamic expression lines caused by muscle contraction, offering a short-term solution that typically requires regular maintenance treatments to preserve results. Skincare supports the skin over the long term by addressing hydration, texture, radiance, and fine lines, while helping maintain a healthier-looking complexion between treatments and over time. novoLUX™ peptide · glow is designed as a long-term skincare solution, helping support the skin’s natural renewal processes and improve the appearance of firmness, texture, hydration, and radiance with consistent use.
