The history of Botox: The OG wrinkle treatment.

The use of Botox started in the 1970’s when scientists started using botulinum toxin to treat crossed eyed patients. During the study, while testing this treatment on monkey’s researchers noticed that botulinum toxin reduced wrinkles in the glabella. Then and there the cosmetic use of Botox was discovered and further investigated, leading to multiple FDA approved uses over the years.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
