How Wrinkles Form

Tox
Movement
Natural muscle movements in the face over time convert temporary creasing in the skin to permanent lines.

Movement
Why this happens
Over time, repeated creasing of the skin through facial muscle movement results in dynamic lines becoming permanent static lines.
Try this at home
Raise your eyebrows. Now furrow them. Now make an exaggerated smile. Are you seeing lines form or showing more dramatically? Treating these lines now will effectively prevent their advance!
How does Botox limit movement?
Movement Prevention
Botox temporarily paralyzes the muscles in your face to limit movement.
Limiting Facial Movement
Limiting facial muscle movement means fewer and less pronounced creasing over time, leading to fewer wrinkles over the long-term.
What about...?
There’s a lot of misinformation on Tox, so we’re here to set the record straight.
Does Tox change the shape of my face?
No, Tox doesn’t change the shape of your face! Often times face shape changes are a result of dermal fillers or more invasive plastic surgery.
Once I start, do I have to keep getting botox?
It’s a common misconception that your wrinkles will come back even stronger if you decide to use botox and then stop. The truth is that it’s more similar to having vitamins — it’s good to start early and your wrinkles will be less pronounced than if you had never done it at all.
When should I start getting botox?
While there’s no one right answer, we recommend treating dynamic lines around the time you start noticing them for the best long-term prevention. This will be between age 25 and age 30 for most, though everyone’s complexion is different.
