What is “anti-wrinkle injections”?
The popular term “anti-wrinkle injections” or “muscle-relaxant injections” is actually a descriptive name for Botulinum toxin (BTx). BTx is a purified protein derived from the bacterium Clostridium Botulinum (there are no bacteria, dead or alive, in this medication)
How Anti-wrinkle Injections works
Anti-wrinkle Injections are injected into muscle which are hyperactive and are causing wrinkles in the overlying skin..
BTx treatment is used for the treatment of hyper dynamic lines that have become STATIC and present at rest. This is NOT a treatment designed solely to stop facial expression as faces are meant to move naturally.
The required amount is unique to each patient and not dependent on age, severity of problem, and gender. No amount is standard for any particular injectable area, although we may always use the same amount to start a new client with.
