How do Xeomin® and Botox® smooth lines?

Botulinum toxin when injected into the muscles, stops the muscles from moving. As a result, the skin is unable to create the furrows and folds.

As we age, the skin loses its elasticity. Therefore, when our facial muscles contract, wrinkles become visible. Over time and with continued movement, these lines deepen. However, by injecting botox into specific areas of the face, we can prevent wrinkle formation and help restore a youthful appearance.
