Botox is used to dramatically smoothen & reduce wrinkles in minutes... you will look less stressed or tired. It is a non surgical & simple way to help you look younger.
Repeated muscle contractions “such as frowning” form lines known as “ dynamic wrinkles” between eyebrows. Botox relaxes these muscles and help smoothing these lines.
What is Botox It is a protein produced by the bacteria Clostidium Botulinum. When applied properly and locally in very small amounts, it relaxes specific muscles and does not spread throughout the body.
How does it Work A tiny amount is injected into the muscles that form dynamic wrinkles, interrupting their nerve conduction and causing them to relax. Then the lines over these muscles smoothed away.
