Botox Injectable Remove Wrinkles Botulinum Toxin 100 unit Allergan Botox Facial Areas for Treatments

Botox is the first injectable used to achieve younger-looking skin. In its natural form, it’s a neurotoxin produced by bacteria called Clostridium botulinum. Botox is an effective treatment for many medical conditions, such as cervical dystonia, overactive bladder, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, lazy eye, chronic migraines, and excessive sweating. However, it’s best known for reducing the appearance of wrinkles.

When used correctly by a trained medical professional, it effectively paralyzes the muscles that cause facial lines and wrinkles and achieves a smoother, younger-looking appearance. It does this by blocking signals from the neurotransmitter, acetylcholine, which tells the muscles to contract.

With the signal blocked, the muscles can’t contract, and instead, they relax, causing the lines and wrinkles to soften. Botox is best for treating dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive facial expressions over long periods of time. They are common ‌in several areas of the face.

Most common dynamic wrinkles:

• Crow’s feet
• Glabellar lines/Frown lines
• Forehead lines
• Bunny lines

While Botox is effective at treating these areas, the effects don’t last forever. The results will fade after 3 to 12 months. But don’t worry—you can maintain your results by repeating Botox treatments every 3 to 6 months.

Reduce Facial Wrinkles
 

Botox injections are the most popular treatment for wrinkles, the first signs of aging. There are several treatment areas that target the lines and wrinkles that make you look older.

• Crow’s feet
Crow’s feet, also called smile lines, are the creases that stem from the outer corners of your eyes, and they’re often the first lines that you notice remain on your face even after the smile fades. Botox treatments can smooth out these lines and give you a fresh look, so you can smile without the lines.

• Glabellar lines
Glabellar lines, also called frown lines, are the lines on the bridge of your nose, between your eyes. They’re caused by repeated frowning or scowling. Botox can’t get rid of what caused you to frown, but it can get rid of those lines.

• Forehead lines
Those deep forehead lines can be so expressive. Botox injections can make them appear shallower and less visible, so you can still express yourself without your forehead expressing your age.

• Bunny lines
Bunny lines are the creases that appear when you wrinkle your nose, and they remain there when you stop. Botox treatments can reduce the appearance of deep bunny lines.
