Anti-Wrinkling
Anti-wrinkle injections, often referred to as Botox or similar botulinum toxin therapies, are a cosmetic procedure aimed at minimizing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. These injections work by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions. This leads to a temporary reduction in muscle activity, which smooths out existing wrinkles and prevents new ones from forming.
