How Does Botox Work?
Botox® temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for wrinkles, resulting in smoother, more youthful-looking skin. Here’s how it works:
- Injection of Botox®: Botox® is injected into the muscles responsible for causing wrinkles. These muscles typically contract when you make facial expressions, leading to fine lines and wrinkles over time.
- Muscle Relaxation: Botox® blocks the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions, leading to a temporary paralysis of the targeted muscles. This relaxes the muscles and smooths the skin’s surface.
- Smoothing Effect: As the muscles relax, wrinkles caused by repeated facial movements (like frowning, squinting, or smiling) are softened, leading to a more youthful appearance.
- Temporary Results: The effects of Botox® last for 3–6 months. Over time, the muscles gradually regain their ability to contract, and wrinkles may reappear, making maintenance treatments necessary to keep the results.
Botox® is a quick, non-invasive procedure that usually takes 10–15 minutes and does not require anesthesia. The results appear gradually over a few days and last for several months.
At Torstveit Medical Aesthetics, we ensure that Botox® is applied precisely to achieve the most natural, youthful results that complement your facial structure.
