Answer: BOTOX® Cosmetic and Wrinkles BOTOX® Cosmetic is effective both for preventing the deepening of wrinkles as well as the treatment of established wrinkles. It works by controlling the wrinkling of skin produced by repetitive muscle contractions that, over time, will result in lines even at rest. The degree and rapidity of improvement depends on the depth of the established lines. When the lines are relatively shallow, improvement can be evident within a matter of days. For deeper lines, however, it may take months to achieve the maximum amount of smoothing. The key is to maintain the relaxation of the muscle with a consistent treatment regimen so that the lines don't begin to reestablish themselves.

Answer: Effect of Botox on dynamic rhytids Botox works beautifully well on wrinkles created by the movement of our facial muscles during facial expressions. The skin above these muscles wrinkle during movement, and with continuous wrinkling they eventually become "etched" into the skin. Even when these lines have created creases that are present at rest, relaxing the underlying muscle will help these lines to soften and prevent them from deepening. Occasionally superficial injections of a filler will be needed to achieve full correction.
