Botox effect cream? #NoCuela

Cosmetics are not like injections

No. There is no cream with a Botox effect, tightening effect, botulinum effect, Botox like or organic Botox that gives the same result as botulinum toxin injected into the muscle. And there isn't because there isn't a cosmetic that can do it: these creams, gels or lotions don't reach such deep layers of the dermis, and their moisturizing or skin tightening effect wears off in a while.

Therefore, that is an impossible claim to meet.

If you want an effective anti-wrinkle treatment, with proven effects, you can use Botox injections and filler injections, and a doctor should advise the patient on which is the best option depending on age and the area to be treated. expected results and possible unwanted effects.

don't believe what they say

However, there are products on the market that boast this "botox effect". Here are two examples

Biotulin

Biotulin's Supreme gel advertises "results similar to those of a Botulinum Toxin treatment, but more comfortable and easier to apply." In theory you have to wait an hour to see its effects. It contains Esphilantol, a substance with a local anesthetic effect, but it goes a long way from being similar to a botulinum toxin treatment.

The Ordinary Argireline Solution 10%

In the advertising that accompanies this product, it can be read that it "effectively paralyzes muscle contraction to reduce the appearance of expression lines and sagging skin" or that it acts "helping prevent the formation of wrinkles, inhibiting muscle contractions" .

It contains 10% Argireline, a patented peptide with a wrinkle-smoothing effect, but it's not like a botox injection.

In short: the botox thing in these #Nocuela creams.
