Will Getting Botox Cause Skin to Sag?

November 15, 2012
Asked By:Natural2011 in Texas, TX

I'd like to get Botox but have read some discerning articles reporting that paralyzing facial muscles could cause the skin to later become loose and thus, sag. I suppose in some cases, the skin may have sagged either way, but my question is, could it cause sagging in skin that otherwise may have retained its firmness? I don't want to sign myself up for a facelift due to sagging skin. I'd rather have a little bit of wrinkles.
