Botox
Wrinkles & Botulinum Toxin
- What creates wrinkles?
- they are creases which result from making the same facial expression thousands of times
- these lines are called lines of "facial expression"
- they are typically located at the outer eyelid area (crow's feet) and in the forehead (frown lines)
- How can they be treated?
- the muscle can be surgically damaged
- the muscle can be temporally paralyzed with Botox injections
- Does the injection hurt?
- injections are done with the smallest possible needle
- there can be initial sting, but it is less than having your blood drawn
