I’ve never had any injection on my face before, but really considering using Botox for my 11 lines area. Is it true that regular Botox use can actually retrain certain muscles to move less, leading to smoother skin with less Botox over time for that specific area?

Answer: Botox for Glabella Botox use doesn't retrain muscles as your facial expressions are "hardwired" from the brain to the nerves to the muscles. What Botox does is prevents the muscles from being stimulated by the nerves and thus, they relax the muscle for 3-4mo but when it wears off the muscles have their full capacity again. With repeated injections of botox you will have continued improvement of your wrinkles but with age usually we see people need a higher dose as the years go on since there are more wrinkles as the skin ages. I hope this helps!

Answer: Consistent By consistently using Botox over several years some patients may be able to go longer between treatments due to atrophy of the treated muscles. However, most patients need to repeat Botox treatments approximately every 3 to 4 months in order to maintain the results.
