How Does Botox Work for Wrinkles?Over time we all develop habitual facial expressions that form lines and then wrinkles in our skin. Some examples are a furrowed brow, squinted eyes, or unconscious frowning. These actions are considered minor when thought of as a one time gesture because skin, especially when young, is elastic in nature; however, like water flowing through a canyon, over time these gestures cause expressions to become wrinkles, and the elasticity to fade, resulting in permanent features of the face that we associate with advancing age. When treated with Botox, a tiny amount of the product is injected into one or more of the dozens of muscles that control facial expression. The Botox works to relax the muscle by blocking the nerve impulse from reaching that specific area, causing the muscle to relax and the wrinkle to fade. Over time the treated muscles can "learn" not to make the facial expression that caused the wrinkle, resulting in long lasting effect. |
