The sight of newly developed wrinkles on our face can be upsetting. Botox is a fast and effective way to not only reduce wrinkles that have already formed but to also prevent future lines from developing.
Botox utilizes the botulinum toxin, a naturally occurring substance serving both aesthetic and medical functions. Cosmetically, Botulinum injections block nerve impulses within targeted facial muscles to limit their movement and, ultimately, their effect on wrinkle creation.
Weathering of the face develops as a result of the natural aging process. Sun exposure, smiling, frowning and squinting can all add to this wrinkling effect. Botox is safe and reliable and has been proven over the years to be effective at blocking nerve actions in targeted muscles, which helps explain its meteoric rise in popularity.
