Botulinum in Young Patients Prevents Wrinkle Formation

Botulinum toxin, when used correctly, possesses extraordinary preventive efficacy even in the absence of wrinkles and is therefore a powerful preventive tool for younger patients when administered in small doses.

A presentation by Dr. Salentina at the International Congress of Aesthetic Medicine in 2012 titled "Botulinum toxin: wrinkle prevention in young patients aged 20 to 40" introduced this highly innovative message, as botulinum had for years been considered a treatment reserved for patients with existing wrinkles.

Recent news from the prestigious American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, supporting Dr. Salentina's thesis, confirms botulinum toxin as a powerful preventive treatment for younger patients, even in the absence of aging signs.

Botulinum toxin works by selectively relaxing the facial muscles responsible for the formation of dynamic wrinkles. This early intervention can effectively delay the formation of permanent static wrinkles, offering a preventive approach to skin care.

This demonstrates how botulinum toxin, in expert hands, is not only safe but possesses extraordinary capabilities for rejuvenation and prevention of skin aging.
