Botox Cosmetic is a prescription medicine that is injected into the muscles of facial expression particularly the glabellar region. After three to seven days the Botox kicks in and you begin to see noticeable natural changes which soften the appearance in this region. You begin to look relaxed, less stressed, and younger. People comment on your just back from vacation look. The Botox lasts roughly three months and then the area, if not maintained, will return to the previous appearance.

If this continues, the skin begins to have a visible crease even when the face is in repose. These creases can for the most part be softened if the facial muscles are toned down.
