How Does Botox Work?

Are you curious about the wrinkle-busting powers of Botox?

Want to learn more about how this popular treatment works to reduce the appearance of forehead lines and creases?

Grab a cup of coffee, settle in, and get ready – because we’re about to explain to you exactly how Botox works.

Botox Glendale

FDA-approved Botox gets its power from a safe neuroprotein known as botulinum toxin type A (it sounds scary, but it’s really not!). This protein works to interrupt the signals between the brain and the nerve endings at the injection site. Because the nerves aren’t getting signals from the brain, that means they’re more relaxed – causing the skin above them to look smoother.

Botox is excellent at treating the wrinkles and creases that often develop as a result of unconscious squinting, frowning, and other tiny micro expressions we make hundreds of times each day.

Botox is FDA-approved for the treatment of forehead wrinkles, frown lines, and crow’s feet.

Am I a Good Candidate for Botox?

You’re a good candidate for Botox injections if you have moderate frown lines or forehead wrinkles. Botox can also work to smooth the appearance of crow’s feet.

How Long Will My Botox Results Last?

If this is your first time trying Botox, you can usually expect your Botox results to last anywhere from three to four months.

If, however, you’ve been getting Botox for awhile now, you may find that your results last a little longer – usually about four to six months! That’s because Botox can have an accumulative effect, meaning seasoned Botox users may enjoy their results for longer.
