How Does Botox Work?
Dynamic wrinkles, often called expression lines, result from repetitive muscle movements and facial expressions. When you smile, frown, or squint, the underlying muscles contract, causing the overlying skin to fold and crease. Over time, these repetitive contractions lead to the formation of noticeable lines and wrinkles. This process is particularly evident in areas like the forehead, around the eyes (crow's feet), and between the eyebrows (frown lines).
Botox works by temporarily blocking the signals between nerves and muscles at the injection site. The botulinum toxin type A in Botox inhibits the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contractions. With reduced muscle activity, the skin relaxes, allowing wrinkles and lines to soften and fade over time. This may help reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, contributing to a more relaxed, refreshed look. Call to schedule an appointment for Botox in Virginia Beach today!
