What are Anti-Wrinkle/Muscle Relaxants?
When we move our muscles they cause dynamic lines (movement Lines). Overtime, constant muscle use in the same areas lead to static more permanent etched lines. Anti-wrinkle treatments are used to soften or prevent these lines by inhibiting muscle movement at the sites in which they are used. When used by experienced Injectors these treatments also work to correct asymmetries, slim or lift certain muscles and areas of the face, enhancing facial harmony and beautifying the face.
