Glabellar lines are the wrinkles between the brows caused by contraction of the corrugator and/or procerus muscles. Crow's feet are fine lines radiating from the outer corners of the eyes. Aging and sun damage are the major causes of both.
Long-term study data suggest that BOTOX® may reduce brow furrow, with results lasting longer with each additional treatment.
How BOTOX® Cosmetic Works
A Muscle-Relaxing Agent
BOTOX® Cosmetic is Allergan's therapeutic drug, working at the motor nerve endings that lead to muscles, for temporary improvement of moderate to severe glabellar lines.
FDA Approved Since 2002
Approved for cosmetic use in April 2002, following prior approval for severe medical conditions as far back as 1989.
Targeted, Temporary Effect
Injected directly into a muscle or muscle group, so the treated area is temporarily unable to contract — softening frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead lines.
How Long Results Last
Onset
Within a few hours to a couple of days after injection, spasms or contractions in the treated muscle are reduced or eliminated.
Duration
A single treatment is typically sustained for approximately three months, with effects gradually fading from there. Duration varies from person to person.
Follow-Up
In clinical study, 82.5% of patients reported improvement in glabellar lines after a week, with results still reported up to 4 months later. Return for your next treatment as effects fade.
