BOTOX® is a
simple, nonsurgical,
physician-administered treatment that
can temporarily smooth moderate to
severe frown lines between the brows in
people from 18 to 65 years of age.
Facial lines around the eyes, brow, and forehead are the result of aging skin,
and muscle contractions which force the skin into wrinkles. BOTOX cosmetic doesn't
just fill in the wrinkle; it treats the muscle that causes the wrinkle.
This treatment is ideal for younger patients, both male and
female, whose skin is just starting to age, as well as older
patients who notice creases and want to prevent potential
creases before they start.
BOTOX cosmetic can improve the
appearance of the frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar
creases), the wrinkles at the outside edges of the eyes (crow's
feet), and horizontal forehead creases (worry lines). Frown
lines, which are deep creases between the eyebrows, can give
people a worried or angry look Many people frown when they
concentrate, in which case their frown lines signal the wrong
emotion. Crow's feet at the sides of the eyes cause a
"squinting" look. Horizontal forehead creases give people an
aged look.
Look at men and women who've had BOTOX Cosmetic treatments, and see for yourself!
One 10-minute treatment - a few tiny injections - and
within days there's a noticeable improvement in
moderate to severe frown lines between the brows,
which can last up to 4 months.
BOTOX Cosmetic is a purified protein produced by
the Clostridium botulinum bacterium, which reduces the activity
of the muscles that cause those frown lines between the brows to
form over time.
