Botox is the world’s most popular wrinkle relaxing injection, thanks largely to its proven efficacy in tackling the signs of ageing.
Botox relaxes the fine dynamic facial muscles which cause lines and wrinkles allowing the skin to drape more smoothly and with a noticeable and rejuvenating reduction in lines.
Now new research has shown that botox has specific benefits not only to how a person looks, but also to how they feel.
It seems to be the case that there is some truth in the old saying look good feel good.
A study was held in Maryland, USA; assessing changes in the symptoms of severe or long-term depression after cosmetic use of botox for anti-wrinkle treatment.
Symptoms of depression actually improved in 27% of patients after receiving botox injections compared with just 7% for those who had received a placebo.
