Botulinum toxin is a purified substance that's used cosmetically. Injections of botulinum toxin (Botox) block the nerve signals to the muscle in which it was injected. Without a signal, the muscle is not able to contract. The end result is diminished unwanted facial wrinkles or appearance. Commonly known types of botulinum toxin type A injections include Botox®, Dysport®, Xeomin® and Jeuveau®.

** Smooth crow's feet, forehead furrows, frown lines, lip lines and bunny lines*

** Diminish neck bands

** Improve the appearance of skin dimpling of the chin

** Lift the corners of the mouth
