Causes of Facial Aging and How Botox Can Help

Botox works as an anti-aging procedure by relaxing the muscles in your face and neck. You can even get baby Botox as a preventative measure for aging, fine lines, and wrinkles. Botox injections increase skin elasticity and paralyze facial muscles to make wrinkles disappear. Everyone eventually shows signs of aging from talking, laughing, and smiling. Botox ensures that you can experience the great, joyful moments in life without causing your muscles to contract and give the appearance of aging.

Botox is a cosmetic injection that’s primary objective is to make facial skin more elastic, relax face muscles, and decrease wrinkling. On top of decreasing signs of aging, Botox can:

– Reduce acne
– Act as a temporary facelift
– Give you a lift lip
– Help prevent migraines
– Stop excessive face sweat
– Give your jawline definition
– Mimic a nose job

Botox temporarily reduces signs of aging by injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin into the muscles that cause permanent lines. This greatly reduces current wrinkles and prevents the muscle from scrunching up and causing new ones. Botox will make your face look smooth, soft, rejuvenated, young, and healthy.

Below we have listed numerous areas of the face that can be treated with Botox! Talk to one of our specialists before your appointment to determine which muscles you want to target with your injections.

Frown Lines
Frown lines are the lines between the eyebrows that become progressively more apparent after getting angry and/or upset. Frown lines can also be caused by stress and exhaustion. Botox injections smooth these lines out and make them noticeably less deep.

Forehead Lines
The wrinkles on your forehead are one of the first signs of aging and are quite difficult to hide. This is one of the most popular Botox requests because of their noticeability. Botox injections can definitely help smooth out your forehead and decrease these lines.

Crow’s Feet
Crow’s feet are the lines on the edge of your eyes caused by smiling, laughing, and having a great time with friends and family. Take peace in knowing that crow’s feet lines are a sign of a happy, long life lived; however, they are also a big indicator that your age is rapidly advancing. Botox can smooth these lines and make your eyes look younger.

Bunny Lines
Bunny lines are the lines that run across the bridge of your nose caused because of nose scrunching. This is a less popular type of Botox requiring a highly experienced specialist. Research Botox specialists in your area before picking one for your specific needs.

Brow Lift
Although Botox isn’t an actual brow lift, it certainly can act like one! This is a great choice for a minimally invasive lift that will give your eyebrows a sharp, young appearance. Perfect for anyone who has, or who would like to prevent, sagging and furrowing eyebrows.

Additionally, you can get Botox injections to fix chin dimples, marionette lines, glabellar lines, platysma bands, and a gummy smile.
