Neurotoxin for wrinkles
Botulinum toxin injections are a popular, FDA-approved treatment used to soften fine lines and wrinkles. They work by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause facial expressions like frowning or squinting. Common areas treated include the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes. The procedure is quick, with minimal downtime, and results usually appear within a few days. Regular treatments can help maintain a smoother, more refreshed appearance over time.
