How BOTOX Works
Over the years, repeated muscle contractions from frowning, squinting and other factors affect the muscles around the eyes and brows, resulting in folds and wrinkles. Other factors, such as cellular changes, collagen reduction or damage caused by the environment also play a critical role in developing wrinkles and folds.
BOTOX acts by reducing muscle activity in these regions, allowing the muscles to relax, smoothing crow’s feet and frown lines and restoring a more youthful look. The actual procedure is a simple one and can take as little as 10 minutes, after which most are able to return to their daily routines with minimal downtime.
A Safe & Convenient Option
BOTOX is one of the most studied cosmetic treatments worldwide, and its use is approved in 78 countries. The treatment is derived from a naturally-occurring toxin — refined in a particular manner that ensures safety and efficacy. There is no generic option for BOTOX, as formulations, dosages and potency vary between products, while the name brand formula consistently delivers great results.
The widespread use of and comprehensive studies on BOTOX make it one of the safest cosmetic treatment options available, and its simple administration also makes it one of the most convenient.
