In the 1950s, researchers discovered that injecting the botulinum toxin into a muscle will paralyze and weaken it for three to four months. When these muscles are paralyzed, the patient is less likely to develop wrinkles. As a result, this treatment has been used treat wrinkles. Botox® also treats other cosmetic problems, including excessive blinking and squinting.
