How Botox Works
Botox and other wrinkle relaxers work by gently relaxing the underlying facial muscles that create dynamic lines and wrinkles. These are the lines that appear with repeated expressions—such as frown lines between the eyebrows, forehead creases, and crow’s feet around the eyes.
By softening the activity of these muscles, Botox:
• Smooths existing lines and wrinkles
• Helps prevent deeper lines from forming over time
• Maintains a refreshed, more youthful appearance
Botox is an FDA-approved treatment with a long track record of safety when administered by an experienced physician.
Areas Commonly Treated
Dr. Scheinblum carefully evaluates your facial anatomy and expressions before recommending treatment. Common areas include:
• Horizontal forehead lines
• Vertical frown lines (the “11s” between the brows)
• Crow’s feet around the eyes
Other areas may be discussed at your consultation based on your individual goals.
