Treating frown lines / glabella area
Botox Cosmetic is a injectable, used in small amounts to locally and temporarily prevent specific muscles from moving. The active ingredient is botulinum toxin, which is a byproduct of a bacteria. This byproduct happens to temporarily prevent a muscle from moving.
Botox works extremely well to minimize frown/furrow lines and this is where it is most popularly used. If you can’t move your face to specifically make these type of furrow/worry lines, you can’t develop these “negative” lines permanently. Also, botox is temporary, lasting 3-4 months.
Botox is really a fantastic way to actually prevent certain lines of expression from forming. If used conservatively, you can still have plenty of facial expressions, just not specific ones that you don’t really want or need.
