Anti-Wrinkle Injectables

Anti-wrinkle injectables, often referred to as 'neurotoxins' or 'muscle relaxants', are a type of cosmetic treatment designed to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The most well-known and widely used of these is Botulinum Toxin Type A.

Here's how they work:

These neurotoxins are injected into specific muscles of the face or neck, blocking the signals from the nerves that cause these muscles to contract. As the muscles relax, the skin over them smooths out, leading to a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles. These injections are particularly effective for 'dynamic wrinkles', which are lines formed from repetitive muscle movements such as frowning, squinting, or smiling.
