Botox treatment cannot only have a tremendous impact on today’s wrinkles, but it can also help prevent tomorrow’s wrinkles.
Botox works by relaxing the facial muscles that produce wrinkles. This can work to smooth lines today and to prevent lines from becoming permanent.
Facial muscle contraction such as smiling or frowning are one of the main causes of wrinkles. Because facial muscles are attached to the undersurface of the skin, a crease forms on the surface of the skin every time facial muscles contract to create an expression. When we are young (i.e. age 20) the skin returns to normal after a facial expression. Ultimately, however, the repetitive action of thousands of expressions over a lifetime produces permanent lines (wrinkles) that are considered a sign of old age. Botox treats these wrinkles better than any other single treatment other than surgery because Botox stops the root cause of these lines (i.e. muscle contraction). When Botox is started early, it is one of the best antiaging therapy available. Although procedures like collagen injections, fat injections, laser resurfacing, chemical peels, and surgery all help fix wrinkles, they are all repairing damaged skin that are related to sun damage. Botox can serve to stop the damage to the skin from occurring related to muscle contraction. Botox can prevent these muscles from creasing your skin every day over many years, therefore, it is logical to think that regular and repeated Botox treatments can prevent wrinkles from occurring that are related to muscle contraction.. If you already have wrinkles, regular and repeated Botox treatments over a period of two years or more may actually even improve these existing wrinkles that are related to muscle contraction.
