Over time, as the sun damages your skin, the temporary wrinkles that form on your face when you move your facial muscles may become more permanent. This can cause you to look stern, tired or angry even when the underlying muscles are still. This happens because the sun degrades your skin so much that it loses natural elasticity.
Botulinum toxin is a prescription medicine that is injected to relax the muscles beneath, preventing the creation of dynamic lines and wrinkles with age.
What is Botulinum Toxin?
Botulinum toxin, is a protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. It relaxes muscles by temporarily blocking nerve impulses to the injected muscles. This reduces muscle contraction that cause lines and wrinkles.
The cosmetic effect of Botulinum toxin was first documented as early as 1989. It is now regularly used by males and females. It is less intrusive and less artificial in appearance than traditional forms of treatment such as plastic surgery.
