Answer: Botox and skin tightening Botox can make the skin of the loose neck drape back against the angle of the neck by decreasing the tightening of the “platysma” muscle. When this muscle tightens from the chin to the collarbones, it pulls away from the curved angle of the neck and sticks out. So here, Botox relaxes the muscle and the skin looks tightened. If the forehead muscles or outer eyelid muscles (crow’s feet) are weakened, then the skin no longer constantly folds onto itself and becomes less wrinkled or “tighter” in appearance, but the skin doesn’t truly tighten.

Answer: Skin tightening from Botox is an illusion Botox does not tighten your skin but the relaxation of the muscles from the botox injections can give the skin a smoother appearance and the illusion of more youthful, tighter skin. Dysport does the same as regular botox but may work quicker and last longer but still only gives the illusion as Botox does.

Answer: Botox to tighten skin Botox does not tighten skin. When a certain area such as the forehead is relaxed from Botox, it might appear that the skin is tighter but in reality it is more relaxed.

Answer: Botox does not tighten skin Botox works on hyperactive muscles, such as the "corrugator" muscles that cause the vertical lines between the eyebrows. Skin tightening requires something that stimulates rebuilding of the collagen in the skin, and there are several things that do that. These include Thermage and lasers, either non-peeling such as Titan, fractional peeling such as Fraxel, and others. Chemical peels do this as well but injectable products as a rule don't.
