We knew that BOTOX® gets rid of those wrinkles, but now it’s been proven to make them disappear!

Known as an effective way to eliminate or reduce wrinkles temporarily, a study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology has now proven that continued use of Allergan’s BOTOX® can actually eliminate wrinkles on the forehead caused by the movement of facial muscles – permanently.

The effect BOTOX® has on the targeted muscles on those who have received injections long term still wears off, however because the skin does not crease as much with repeated treatment, it has time to “relax”. Without the constant creasing, the skin has time to smooth out and repair itself.

The study, conducted by Dr Patrick Bowler, monitored two subjects treating lines on the forehead, between the brows and the soft tissue around the eyes for a 7 year period. Both subjects at the end of the period were found to have smoother skin with a more “natural” look, and their skin quality continued to improve over time.
