Don’t Let Wrinkles Tell Your Story
As we age, our skin will wrinkle and crinkle in areas that were once tight and youthful-looking, such as the forehead, temple areas, and around the eyes and mouth.
During the aging process, collagen breaks down, causing wrinkles to form and for us to lose facial volume. By combining neuromodulators with lasers or fillers, we can now address not just the symptoms of aging such as lines and wrinkles but we can also stimulate the natural production of collagen for a lasting overall refreshed appearance.
How does Botox Cosmetic work?
Botox Cosmetic targets one of the underlying causes of frown lines and crow’s feet—the repeated muscle contractions from frowning and squinting over the years. Your specialist will inject these muscles with Botox Cosmetic to temporarily reduce muscle activity. You will begin to notice a visible smoothing of your crow’s feet lines and frown lines between your brows.
Wrinkles result from a combination of many factors. It’s not just about cellular changes that can occur over time, reduction of collagen, or damage caused by free radicals in the sun and the environment. When you frown or concentrate, the muscles between your brows contract, causing your skin to furrow and fold. And when you squint, the muscles around your eyes contract and cause crow’s feet. Botox Cosmetic works beneath the skin’s surface and targets the underlying muscle activity that causes frown lines and crow’s feet.

Botox FAQs
What is BOTOX?
Botox Cosmetic is the only approved treatment to temporarily improve the appearance of both moderate to severe frown lines between the brows and crow’s feet lines in adults.
Botox Cosmetic is one of the most extensively studied medical aesthetic treatments and is approved for cosmetic use in 78 countries. Botox Cosmetic has a record of experience that aesthetic specialists know and trust. And, the safety and efficacy of Botox Cosmetic have been evaluated in both Allergan-sponsored clinical trials as well as in 417 peer-reviewed articles in scientific and medical journals.
Botox Cosmetic contains tiny amounts of a highly purified botulinum toxin protein refined from the bacterium, Clostridium botulinum. Formulations, potency, and approved doses vary among botulinum toxin products, which means that one product cannot take the place of another. Those are a few reasons why there is no such thing as a “generic” form of Botox Cosmetic. There have been no studies to support that other products are Unit-to-Unit equivalent to Botox Cosmetic.
Approximately 10.9 million vials of Botox Cosmetic have been sold in the United States since 2002, and millions of people have already made BOTOX Cosmetic a part of what they do for themselves. Today, Botox Cosmetic is the #1 selling product of its kind in the world.
