Horizontal wrinkles that appear whenever you raise your forehead, and wrinkles that deepen when you furrow your brows, are typical expression lines. Initially, they are only visible when making facial expressions, but if you repeatedly use the same muscles, they can gradually lead to fixed wrinkles that remain even when you are at rest.

In such cases, wrinkle Botox is a procedure often considered. Today, I will summarize everything from the reasons wrinkles form to the characteristics of wrinkle Botox, the treatment frequency, who it is recommended for, and precautions after the procedure!

1. Reasons why wrinkles form

1) Decrease in collagen and elastin

It is said that as we age, collagen and elastin in the skin gradually decrease, and as the skin's supporting strength weakens, fine wrinkles may form.

 

2) Ultraviolet rays

Ultraviolet rays are one of the major causes of accelerated skin aging. It is said that repeated exposure to UV rays can reduce skin elasticity and make wrinkles more likely to form.

 

3) Repetitive facial expression habits

Habits such as frequently frowning, using your forehead when opening your eyes, or overusing the muscles around your eyes when smiling act as causes for expression lines. Initially, wrinkles are only visible when making facial expressions, but if the same area folds repeatedly, it is said that they can lead to permanent wrinkles over time.

2. What is Wrinkle Botox?

Wrinkle Botox is a procedure that helps alleviate wrinkles by injecting Botox into facial expression lines to block the secretion of neurotransmitters involved in muscle contraction, thereby preventing excessive muscle movement.

It is said to help improve wrinkles related to facial expressions, such as those on the forehead, between the eyebrows, around the eyes, and on the chin.

 

1) Timing of the effect of wrinkle Botox

It is said that the effects of wrinkle Botox appear within 1 to 2 weeks after the procedure.

 

2) Maintenance period

It varies from person to person, but on average, it is said to last for about 3 to 4 months.

3. Wrinkle Botox Cycle

While the frequency of wrinkle Botox treatments varies from person to person, you can generally consider an interval of 3 to 6 months. It is said that wrinkles may become more prominent again as muscle movement gradually recovers after a certain period following the procedure.

However, the treatment cycle for wrinkle Botox is not the same for everyone and can vary depending on facial expression habits, the treatment area, and the type of product used, so it is recommended to consult with a medical professional to determine the appropriate time for a follow-up treatment.

4. Recommended Candidates for Wrinkle Botox

It is said that wrinkle Botox can be considered in the following cases.

 

1) When horizontal wrinkles are clearly visible when lifting the forehead

2) When deep vertical wrinkles form between the eyebrows when frowning

3) When fine lines around the eyes become prominent when smiling

4) If you want preventive care before expression lines deepen

5. Precautions After Wrinkle Botox

It is said that after wrinkle Botox, it is important to avoid actions that could irritate the treated area.

 

1) Do not rub or massage the treated area vigorously on the day of the procedure.

2) Avoid excessive drinking, saunas, steam rooms, etc. for about a week after the procedure.

3) If you experience eyelid drooping or asymmetry, consult a medical professional.

6. Q&A

1) How much does wrinkle Botox cost?

The price for the Maypure Wrinkle Botox first-visit event is 1,900 won based on domestic Botox.

2) Can I get it before wrinkles form?
It can be considered as a preventive measure before expression lines deepen. However, since repeated treatments at very short intervals are not recommended, it is advisable to determine an appropriate frequency after checking your current wrinkle condition and facial expression habits.

 

3) Can deep wrinkles also be removed with Botox?
Botox can help alleviate wrinkles caused by facial expressions. However, there may be limitations to using Botox alone for deep, fixed wrinkles, and other procedures such as fillers may be considered depending on the condition.
