One of the most incredible developments in modern cosmetics is Botox. Botox Cosmetic is composed of botulinum toxin, which may sound intimidating but is actually a great tool for helping to relax muscles and prevent wrinkle formation.Botulinum toxin, the active ingredient in Botox Cosmetic, is effective for limiting the muscle contractions that lead to dynamic wrinkles.
Dynamic wrinkles are the type of wrinkles that are caused by repeated muscle contractions involved with chewing, frowning and other facial movements. By keeping these muscles relaxed, the skin is kept smooth and youthful.
