Dynamic facial wrinkles are the bane of any passionate and emotive individual. After all, these creases are the visible result of common facial movements. The more physically expressive you happen to be, the more likely you are to develop lines across your brown, crow’s feet, and perioral wrinkles that radiate out from your mouth. The good news is that BOTOX® can erase these all-too-conspicuous ravages of time and motion. By temporarily relaxing select muscles, this powerful injectable can keep the skin youthful and line-free for a very long time.

What Causes Dynamic Wrinkling?

Whenever you make any facial expression, tension is created in the muscles that are needed for this movement. Over time, this tension can start creating cracks in the soft, smooth layer of collagen that exists to support your skin. Once these cracks exist, they will manifest at the surface layers of the skin as visible creases, each time the facial muscles are again put in motion.

How to Restore Your Youthful Appearance

BOTOX® targets dynamic wrinkles by causing some of the expressive muscles to lie dormant. This potent injectable accomplishes this by blocking the nerve signals that control select facial muscles. During a BOTOX® treatment, very small amounts of this solution are inserted in key areas by the injector. As muscle movements abate, stored tension is released, and the supportive collagen layer is again able to lie flat. Best of all, patients can continue making a variety of natural facial expressions after their treatments, even as they enjoy smoother and far younger-looking appearances overall.

What Is the Procedure Like?

Those getting BOTOX® for the very first time can look forward to a surprisingly fast and virtually pain-free procedure. These treatments usually last about 20 minutes. There is no need for downtime after the typical BOTOX® anti-aging treatment. As soon as the final injection is complete, you can immediately return to work or your other scheduled activities.

How Long Do the Benefits of BOTOX® Last?

BOTOX® can be used to minimize or eliminate dynamic wrinkling, and to stave off the development of motion-related creases for as long as possible. Effective as both an anti-aging treatment and a preventative measure, this FDA-approved injectable can produce improvements that last up to four months. After this time, most BOTOX® patients will need to have their injections repeated in order to continue enjoying their new and more youthful appearance.

Using this top-rated product has long been the preferred method for eliminating dynamic wrinkles among those who are seeking non-surgical, anti-aging procedures.
