A Canadian study published in "JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery" by the American Medical Association reveals: botulinum toxin also rejuvenates the skin.
The new potential of botulinum toxin was revealed through a study conducted on a sample of 43 women with an average age of 52 years who had never previously undergone Botox treatments.
The women, who presented mild periocular wrinkles, received periodic injections of type A botulinum toxin, and their skin condition was evaluated over 4 months.
The study results demonstrated significant improvement in skin quality and elasticity, measured through biomechanical instrumental analysis.
The research showed that botulinum toxin stimulates skin biomechanics, promoting collagen production and reactivating the molecular skin rejuvenation process.
This discovery, while opening new applications for botulinum toxin, confirms a concrete fact: when used correctly, botulinum toxin remains a drug with proven safety levels and significant therapeutic applications in aesthetic-functional medicine.
