BOTOX/WRINKLE RELAXERS
As we age, our skin quality gradually deteriorates. Wrinkle relaxers, commonly known as Botox, are used to temporarily soften and smooth facial lines and wrinkles to improve the appearance of the skin. These injections work by blocking certain chemical signals that cause muscles to contract. Over the years, facial muscle contractions such as smiling, squinting or frowning, as well as sun damage, genetics, lifestyle and exposure to pollutants can all contribute to premature signs of aging. Botox has been safely and effectively used for years to help turn back the hands of time.
