The treatment with Botulinum Toxin Type A to correct wrinkles is a widely spread method.

 Botox injections are successfully used to reduce facial wrinkles. This method can be applied as the only procedure for initial lines and folds. For moderate-to-severe lines and folds it will be used together with substances such as collagen, hilauronic acid and lactic acid.

The lines that appear by gesticulation, especially frown lines, "crow's feet," and forehead furrows may be treated with the botulinum toxin. Once injected, Botox Cosmetic works by preventing nerve impulses from reaching selected facial muscles, essentially immobilizing them and allowing the skin to relax. This smoothes facial lines and wrinkles in affected areas for the duration of the treatment period. The effects of Botox injections are usually noticeable within a few days. Although the results of Botox treatment are not permanent, they usually last for four to eight months

If other substances (collagen,hyaluronic acid or lactic acid) are used together with the botulinum toxin the result will be optimum. The reason is that the filling materials will not be subjected to muscles movement. Thus, they will not be pressed and pushed into the deepest cavities/voids so quickly. This allows the reabsorption to be slower. This will be particularly useful in areas with severe damages such as the upper lip and the forehead.
