Repeated facial gestures can cause long-term wrinkles on our face— think about frown lines, in particular, or lines above the eyebrow. Fortunately, the latest advances in cosmetic technology can strategically target and mitigate wrinkles and fine lines, resulting in a smoother, younger-looking appearance.

What Are BOTOX® & Wrinkle Relaxers?
BOTOX Cosmetic is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures performed today and is considered a safe and effective way to treat wrinkles and other signs of aging skin. Originally developed to treat patients with certain muscular disorders, it is now mostly used to treat the visual signs of aging by reducing or removing wrinkles. Proven to be the best non-surgical form of facial rejuvenation, BOTOX can relieve horizontal forehead furrows, vertical lines between the eyebrows, and “crow’s feet” around the eyes.
It’s worth noting that BOTOX Cosmetic is not in the same class of treatments as dermal fillers or many other wrinkle treatments. While dermal fillers reduce the signs of aging by filling in the volume in the face created by lax skin, BOTOX Cosmetic targets wrinkles directly by paralyzing the muscles that create them through contractions. The wrinkles disappear because the muscles are no longer contracting, resulting in a look that appears incredibly natural and youthful.
