Wrinkle Reduction
Why Do We Get Wrinkles?
Wrinkles are a natural part of aging. As we grow older, our skin produces less collagen and elastin — the proteins that keep skin firm, smooth, and elastic. At the same time, the skin becomes thinner and drier, making it less able to bounce back. Repeated facial expressions, like smiling, frowning, or squinting, also create lines that deepen over time. External factors such as sun exposure, stress, and lifestyle habits (like smoking or poor sleep) can speed up the process, leading to earlier or more noticeable wrinkles.

​How Botox Reduces Wrinkles
Botox works by relaxing the tiny facial muscles that cause expression lines, such as frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead wrinkles. These muscles normally contract when we smile, laugh, or frown, which over time creates visible creases in the skin. By gently blocking the nerve signals to these muscles, Botox softens their movement, allowing the skin to smooth out and appear more youthful. The result is a natural, refreshed look without changing your facial expressions.
