22. What is Botox?

Published: Oct. 26, 2021, 4 a.m.

Skin wrinkles or furrows, such as on the forehead or around the eyes, are caused by the underlying muscles. Botox - or Botulinum toxin - is a medical chemical designed to temporarily weaken or relax those muscles, allowing the skin to be smoother.

The smoothing effects of Botox treatments generally lasts 3-4 months. Lewisburg Plastic Surgery & Dermatology has extensive experience in the use of Botox.
