BOTOX, a condensed term for botulinum toxin type A, is a safe, purified protein that is FDA-approved and remarkably effective at aesthetic enhancement. Its primary role involves diminishing the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles, particularly in the upper facial region, by temporarily relaxing the muscles responsible for creating wrinkles. Through consistent upkeep, BOTOX maintains smooth frown lines and crow’s feet, preventing their progression.
