Botox Cosmetics is a FDA drug that has been used for years to treat wrinkles and facial creases. Botox is a brand name botulinum toxin.

​

The most common reason providers use Botox is to reduce the appearance of face wrinkles.

​

Botox blocks signals from the nerves to the muscles. The injected muscle can't contract. That makes wrinkles relax and soften.

Botox is most often used on forehead lines, crow's feet (lines around the eye), and frown lines. Botox won’t help with wrinkles caused by sun damage or gravity.
