Botox (1 of 13 photos)
Botox® safely weakens or paralyzes targeted facial muscles for three to four months. This temporarily removes facial wrinkles and prevents new ones from forming. Afraid of frozen-face syndrome? Don't worry. Muscles that form expressions, such as those that raise the eyebrows, aren't affected. Forehead wrinkles and crow's feet are popular targets for Botox®.
