Over active movement in the forehead may cause horizontal lines, and squinting the muscles around the eyes may cause fine lines, which are also known as “Crow’s Feet”.
Once Botox is injected into the muscle, it weakens the muscle activity that leads to wrinkles. Botox can take anywhere from 2-10 days to see the effects and can last up to 3-6. The result is a reduction in appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, which leads to smoother skin.
This causes your skin to furrow and fold, creating wrinkles. Also when you squint, the muscles around your eyes contract and cause crow’s feet. The constant action of your forehead muscle (the Frontalis muscle) creates horizontal lines on the forehead.
BOTOX works under the skin surface. It targets the underlying muscle activity which leads to wrinkles which form over time.
Dr. Zoumalan injects BOTOX into the muscles that cause crow’s feet (wrinkles around eyes), forehead wrinkles, and bunny lines between eyebrows. This temporarily reduces the activity of those muscles. The result is a reduction in the appearance of those lines. This leads to smoother skin which appears younger.
Does BOTOX Prevent Wrinkles?
Studies have also shown that regular use of Botox may help in preventing future wrinkles, as well as assist current lines from getting worse. However, use of Botox at too young of an age may not be wise. Dr. Zoumalan is an expert in facial procedures and treatments, and will help guide you to your desired look.
