What Is Botox® Cosmetic?
Botox® Cosmetic is an FDA-approved botulinum toxin type A product, manufactured by Allergan, designed to treat facial wrinkles caused by repeated muscle movement. This cosmetic use of botulinum toxin works by blocking nerve signals to the facial muscles, relaxing the targeted muscles and preventing them from contracting. As a purified protein, this is how Botox® works to soften facial lines linked to repeated expression and visible facial aging.
What Can Botox® Treat?
Botox is one of the most effective treatments for dynamic wrinkles, those caused by movement in the facial muscles. We commonly use botox to treat:
Frown lines between the eyebrows
Forehead lines
Crow’s feet around the eyes
Neck bands and minor skin sagging
Gummy smile correction (when the upper lip rises too high)
Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), a non-cosmetic but highly successful treatment
Many patients choose to combine botox and dermal fillers for complete facial rejuvenation, addressing both expression lines and volume loss.
How Botox® Cosmetic Works
Botox treatments involve injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin directly into the facial muscles causing wrinkles. The botox injections temporarily stop the nerve signals that trigger muscle contractions. This relaxation allows the skin above the muscles to smooth out, reducing the appearance of lines.
