What Are BOTOX® and Wrinkle Relaxers?
BOTOX and wrinkle relaxers – also known as neuromodulators – are non-surgical, non-invasive treatments to erase the wrinkles and lines that can make patients look older than they feel. BOTOX works by temporarily reducing repetitive muscle contractions that can lead to the formation of glabellar lines, forehead creases, and crow’s feet around the eyes. When injected into tiny facial muscles, neuromodulators block the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, preventing the brain from receiving the signal to contract the muscles. With the muscles now relaxed, the skin smooths, revealing a more rejuvenated facial expression. If you are in the New York or Tri-State area and have found that smiling, frowning, laughing, or squinting has left you with entrenched lines, BOTOX and wrinkle relaxers can help rewind the hands of time and give you a more inviting, energized appearance.
