BOTOX Cosmetic is a popular prescription treatment for reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. It is a non-surgical procedure that involves injecting a small amount of botulinum toxin into specific facial muscles to relax them, temporarily preventing the formation of expression lines.

Botox is one of several similarly acting medications ( eg Xeomin, Dysport) and can be considered along with many other options to treat wrinkles such as topical skin creams, fillers and lasers, to name a few.

The prescription wrinkle relaxer effectively treats:

  • Forehead lines. BOTOX smooths out horizontal forehead lines caused by repetitive facial expressions.
  • Frown lines. Neuromodulators like BOTOX soften vertical lines between the eyebrows (often called the 11s) that develop over time due to frowning.
  • Crow’s feet. BOTOX reduces the appearance of wrinkles around the eyes caused by smiling and squinting.
  • Neck bands. Prescription wrinkle injections reduce the appearance of vertical neck bands caused by aging.

The popular neuromodulator can also be used for various other aesthetic goals, from creating a fuller-looking upper lip with a lip flip to slimming a broad jawline caused by an overworked masseter muscle. However, it’s important to note that BOTOX isn’t a permanent solution for cosmetic conditions; touch-up treatments are necessary to maintain results.

As with all medications, it’s important to review potential side effects with your health care provider before treatment.

While BOTOX Cosmetic has become a widely accepted prescription treatment, it’s important to get answers to your questions and find out if it’s the right choice for you.
