What does Botox wrinkle treatment involve?
In many patients, these lines can be softened or even removed by reducing the degree of muscle contraction. This is achieved using very small doses of botulinum toxin (e.g. Botox). Where Botox is injected, it relaxes the underlying muscle, diminishing the wrinkling effect and results in a more refreshed, smoother look. The use of Botox may help prevent deep wrinkles in the long-term by “re-educating” muscles not to make unwanted wrinkle-inducing movements.
