Botox cosmetic is an inject-able wrinkle relaxer and works by temporarily paralyzing muscles which helps in reducing appearance of facial wrinkles. This minimal invasive treatment is considered safe and effective procedure for treatment of fine lines and wrinkles around eyes. It is quite effective for fine lines on forehead between eyebrows.
After botox treatment few precautions need to be taken to keep you safe. Rubbing, massaging or applying pressure on treated area should be avoided. Afore mentioned actions can cause negative results as botox cosmetic spreads to other body parts. If the treatment was given between the eye brows, avoid bending or lying over for at least three to four hours so that the botox does not slip to the orbital rim.

Noticeable differences can be observed from 1-2 days of the treatment. It also helps in preventing fine lines to recur on the face.
