Anti-wrinkle injections consist of a natural and purified protein, along with a neurotoxin derived from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum.

By blocking the transmission of neurotransmitters between nerves and muscles, they prevent the muscles from contracting, ultimately leading to a more crease-free face.
