Although it's a pleasure to smile often, it may also develop crow's feet around the eyes. Botulinum toxin can soften these lines as well as soften or even eliminate the furrow lines/frown lines (frown wrinkles between the eyebrows) and forehead wrinkles.
With this procedure, a cosmetic doctor will inject a small quantity of muscle relaxant into the facial expression muscles. This is done with a very fine needle so that you barely feel a thing during the wrinkle treatment. The most commonly treated zones are:
- Frown wrinkles (glabella between the eyebrows)
- Forehead wrinkles
- Crow's feet (near the eyes)
- Eyebrows (muscle that lifts the eyebrow)
- Bunny lines (nose wrinkles)
- Corners of the mouth (smile lift)
- Chin (witch's chin or dimples in the chin)
