Botox® Cosmetic is FDA-approved to treat frown lines, wrinkles between the eyebrows, crow's feet, and wrinkles around the eyes. It diminishes or eliminates the appearance by paralyzing the underlying muscle causing the wrinkle. When injected directly into the muscle the purified Botulinum toxin type A prevents the muscle from contracting by blocking the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscle. Because the muscle cannot contract the wrinkle cannot form and it gradually diminishes. Botox® is most effective on non-static wrinkles
