Letybo
Letybo Neuromodulator for Wrinkle Reduction in Middleton, WI
Letybo® is a neuromodulator injectable used to reduce the appearance of dynamic facial wrinkles by temporarily relaxing targeted facial muscles. Like other neuromodulators, Letybo helps soften lines caused by repeated facial expressions, allowing the skin to appear smoother and more refreshed.
Letybo treatments are offered at AestheticA Skin Health Center in Middleton and are performed by experienced aesthetic providers.
How Letybo Works
Letybo works by limiting muscle movement in areas where repeated facial expressions create visible lines and creases. When these muscles are relaxed, the overlying skin appears smoother while natural facial expression is maintained.
Areas Commonly Treated with Letybo
Letybo is commonly used to treat:
Frown lines between the eyebrows
Forehead lines
Crow’s feet
Your provider will determine whether Letybo is appropriate based on your concerns and facial anatomy.
Letybo Results
Results typically begin to appear within several days of treatment, with continued improvement over the following weeks. Individual results and longevity may vary.
Letybo vs. Other Neuromodulators
Letybo, Botox®, and Dysport® are all neuromodulators used to soften dynamic wrinkles. Each product works in a similar way, and the choice of product depends on treatment area, desired outcome, and provider recommendation. A consultation allows your provider to recommend the most appropriate neuromodulator for your goals.
Your Letybo Consultation
Skin requires a tailored program of care to optimize its health and appearance. At your consultation, one of our Medical Aesthetics Specialists will gather information from you about your skin concerns, examine your skin and explain what they discover. They will help you prioritize and achieve your best skin by preparing a treatment plan that ensures any skin treatments you choose are provided in a manner that is as effective and as safe as possible. Our Medical Aesthetics Specialists have trained under Double-Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Richard Parfitt.

If you are a previous client of AestheticA, but have not been seen by our clinic within a year, a brief follow-up will be included in your appointment to discuss your previous treatment(s) or any new skin concerns you may have.

Treatment Guidelines
Pre Treatment
- To avoid bruising it is best not to take any medications that cause blood thinning, such as aspirin, ibuprofen, Advil, Motrin, or Vitamin E for 2 days prior and 2 days after treatment.
- Do not use Letybo if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, are allergic to any of its ingredients, or suffer from any neurological disorders. Please inform your clinician if you have any questions about this prior to the procedure.
- Sunburned skin is difficult to treat so avoid exposure to the sun.
- Avoid waxing, bleaching, tweezing, or the use of hair removal cream on the area to be treated for 3 days prior to treatment.
- Inform your clinician if you have a history of Perioral Herpes to receive advice on antiviral therapy prior to treatment.
- Always inform your clinician of all medications you may be taking as well as your medical history.
Post Treatment
- You may have bruises in the areas treated with any of the following neurotoxin: Botox, Dysport or Letybo. This is normal.
- It will take up to two weeks for you to experience the full effect of the Letybo treatment. Remain patient. It takes time for the muscles to lose strength and the lines to fade following treatments with BOTOX, Dysport or Letybo.
- It is best to try to exercise your treated muscles for 1-2 hours after treatment (e.g. practice frowning, raising your eyebrows, or squinting). This helps to work Letybo, BOTOX Cosmetic, or Dysport into your muscles. Although thought to help, it will NOT impact your treatment negatively if you forget to do this.
- Do NOT rub, massage or apply excessive pressure to the treated areas for 4 hours after your treatment. Do NOT practice Yoga or any type of strenuous exercise for 4 hours after treatment. Also, avoid facials or saunas for 4 hours after your treatment. This will minimize the risk of raising your blood pressure and therefore minimize the risk of temporary bruising. Feel free to shower and go about most other regular daily activities.
- Do NOT lie down for 4 hours after treatment. This is to avoid the risk of pressure on the treated areas (from your pillow) and to avoid the risk of having the area rubbed accidentally.
- Be assured that any tiny bumps or marks will go away within a few minutes to an hour. If you need to apply make-up within 4 hours after your treatment, only use a GENTLE touch to avoid rubbing the treated area.
Letybo is a temporary procedure and at first, you may find that your treatment results will last approximately 3 or 4 months. If you maintain your treatment appointments with the frequency recommended by your doctor, the duration of each treatment result may last longer than 4 months.
