Letybo® in Richmond – The Newest Wrinkle‑Smoothing Injection

Published on

A Fresh Approach to Facial Rejuvenation

Synergy Face + Body now offers Letybo®, the newest FDA-approved neuromodulator for smoothing moderate to severe frown lines.

Letybo® is already popular in over 50 countries, including South Korea, where it goes by the name Botulax. Now available in the U.S., Letybo® brings trusted results to clients in Richmond, Virginia and Raleigh, North Carolina.

What Is Letybo®?

Letybo® is an injectable used to temporarily improve the appearance of moderate to severe glabellar lines, which are the vertical frown lines that appear between the eyebrows. These lines form due to repeated contractions of the muscles involved with frowning, concentrating, or squinting.

Quick Facts:

Target Area
Mostly used for glabellar lines (the “11s” between the eyebrows), but may be used off-label by trained providers for other dynamic wrinkles depending on patient needs.
Active Ingredient
Botulinum toxin type A—a purified protein that acts as a neuromuscular blocker.
FDA Approval
Approved in 2023 for aesthetic use in adults in the United States, following widespread clinical use in over 50 countries under the name Botulax®.
Onset of Results
Most patients begin to see visible softening of lines within 3 to 7 days after injection. Full results typically develop by day 10.
Duration of Effect
Results generally last between 12 and 16 weeks, depending on individual metabolism, muscle activity, and dosage. After this period, repeat treatments are needed to maintain results.
Treatment Time
A typical session takes 10 to 15 minutes. No anesthesia is required, though a topical numbing cream can be applied for comfort.
Downtime & Recovery
Minimal to none. Patients can return to daily activities immediately. It’s advised to avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, or rubbing the treated area for at least 24 hours to prevent unwanted diffusion.
Side Effects
Most side effects are mild and temporary, including slight redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. Rare but possible effects include headache or drooping eyelids (ptosis), which generally resolve over time.

Letybo® vs. Botox® and Dysport®: What’s the Difference?

Feature Letybo® Botox® Dysport®
Onset of Results 3–7 days 3–5 days 2–4 days
Duration 3–4 months 3–4 months 3–4 months
Units Needed Similar to Botox® Baseline standard Typically more units
Expression Soft, natural look Consistent smoothing Strong for deep lines

While all three neuromodulators are effective, Letybo® is an excellent option for patients looking for reliable, smooth results with a softer, more natural expression. Our providers can help you choose the best product based on your facial structure and goals.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Letybo®?

You’re likely a good candidate if you:

  • Are over 18 and in generally good health
  • Have dynamic wrinkles (caused by repeated muscle movement)
  • Prefer a natural-looking, soft result that preserves expression
  • Are new to neuromodulators or open to trying an alternative to Botox® or Dysport®

However, Letybo® may not be recommended if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have a known allergy to botulinum toxin, or have certain neuromuscular conditions. During your consultation, our team will carefully review your medical history and aesthetic goals to determine if Letybo® is the best fit for you.

Why Choose Letybo®?

  • Natural-looking results: Letybo® delivers soft, smooth outcomes while preserving natural facial movement and expression.
  • Fast-acting: Many patients notice improvement within a few days, making it ideal for those wanting quick, visible change.
  • High precision: This formulation provides consistent, reliable results and meets rigorous standards for purity.
