How Is It Done?
Originally, anti-wrinkle injections were used to treat muscle pulls associated with diseases.
Facial expressions are created based on signals sent from the brain to contract facial muscles.
When the signals are transmitted to the muscles, wrinkles are formed as the muscles contract, but anti-wrinkle injections block the transmission of these signals.
However, anti-wrinkle injections block the transmission of these signals to the muscles, thus preventing the formation of wrinkles at the corners of the eyes.
It also prevents wrinkles from forming even when smiling, but by injecting the right amount according to the degree of the patient's condition, it will not cause an unnatural expression. The effect begins to appear in about 3 to 5 days and lasts for about 3 to 4 months.
With repeated treatments, the facial muscles themselves will weaken and the duration of the effect will gradually increase.
