What are Wrinkles?
Wrinkles, a natural part of aging, are the lines and creases that form in your skin.
Lines that appear only during facial expression are termed dynamic wrinkles.
As time progresses, dynamic wrinkles may become deep crevices or furrows (static wrinkles) that persist even when the face is relaxed.
Causes of Wrinkles
- Age and Decreased Skin Elasticity
- Loss of collagen
- Dry and Dehydrated Skin
- Repeated facial expressions
- Sun exposure
- Environmental pollutants

Treatment of Wrinkles
Dr Edwin recommends that dynamic wrinkles are best treated with Botox Neurotoxin injections.
In the hands of an experienced doctor, Botox Neurotoxin injections are safe, effective and natural-looking.
Static wrinkles can be addressed with a mixture of Botox Neurotoxin injections as well as treatments that stimulate collagen production such as Rejuran Healer, Skinboosters and HIFU.
Dermal fillers can also used to fill up deep lines to immediately improve the appearance of static wrinkles and furrows.
How does Botox Neurotoxin Treatments work?
Botox or neurotoxins are known by several brand names in the market. Due to google search restrictions, we are limited to using the word Botox. Dr Edwin prefers to use the original Botox from Allergan starting with B.
It is a popular cosmetic injectable procedure done by doctors to improve wrinkles for younger looking skin.
Lines and wrinkles develop because of repeated creasing of the skin due to muscle contraction when making facial expressions. Botox works by relaxing these muscles of facial expressions.
For example, frequent raising of eyebrows can lead to horizontal forehead wrinkles and lines. By relaxing the frontalis muscle which raises the eyebrows, Botox is able to improve forehead expression lines and wrinkles.
