What does Botox\u00ae<\/strong> do?<\/h2>\n

Botulinum toxin is the active ingredient in the injectable that causes a muscle to become paralyzed, or frozen. So it doesn’t fill wrinkles, but often it gives the face a more pleasing look by allowing certain muscles in the face to relax. The effect of Botulinum toxin is 3 to 4 months.<\/p>\n

Fine wrinkles usually disappear after an initial Botox\u00ae <\/strong>treatment. Deeper wrinkles require repeated treatments or a combination of treatments with a filler<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Reduce wrinkles <\/strong><\/h2>\n

Botox\u00ae is most commonly used for forehead wrinkles and frown lines. It can also treat crow’s feet and small wrinkles around the eyes very well. Botulinum toxin can also be used to treat laugh lines on the nose, called Bunny lines. A Gummy smile, can be treated if you find that your gums are too visible when smiling. This can be fixed without changing your facial expression.<\/p>\n
