Dr. Rusnak Wellness Wrinkle Relaxing Serum

For the lines that show when you smile, frown or squint. Wrinkle Relaxing Serum is a targeted peptide serum for expression lines: forehead, between the brows, crow's feet and the lines around the mouth. Peptides and hydrating agents help soften the look of tension in the skin and plump the surface, so expression lines look smoother and less etched. Formulated by Dr. Cecilia Rusnak PhD, LME, DAc. It is a topical cosmetic, not an injectable, and it does not affect muscles.

Frequently asked questions

Is this like Botox?
No. Botox is a prescription injectable that acts on muscle. Wrinkle Relaxing Serum is a cosmetic serum that works on the surface of the skin, softening the look of lines through hydration and peptides. It does not freeze or relax muscles.

Can I use it over the whole face?
You can, but it is designed for expression areas. For all-over peptide support, Qi Firm Peptide Renewal is the better value and the two layer well together.

How long until I see a difference?
Results vary. The plumping effect of hyaluronic acid shows within minutes; changes in how expression lines look build with consistent twice-daily use over several weeks to a few months.

Can I use it with retinol?
Yes. Apply Wrinkle Relaxing Serum first, let it absorb, then retinol or your night cream. If your skin is sensitive, alternate nights.
