How Botox® Cosmetic Works
A combination of factors can cause facial lines. Repeated muscle contractions from frowning, squinting, or raising eyebrows cause skin to furrow and fold, gradually resulting in the formation of facial lines. BOTOX® Cosmetic inhibits the contraction of facial muscles, thus relaxing and smoothing fine lines and wrinkles. BOTOX® Cosmetic works beneath the surface and temporarily reduces the underlying muscle activity that causes moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines in adults – to help them look better.
​
The Botulinum toxin can take about 24-72 hours to take effect and take about 5-7 days for the full effect to be observed. Best results can take up to 2 weeks. Results from botulinum toxin can last from 10-12 weeks and occasionally longer depending on the person.
