Back to work with a TWIN study 📚
Botulinum Toxin Type A (botox) Identical Twin Study was published back in 2006. During the study, researchers examined the effects of Botox over time among two identical twins. One received Botox regularly 2-3 times per year over the course of 13 years; the other received Botox only twice (year 3 and 7), but then did not receive any more.
You can see the twin on right, who had regular treatments with Botox, the skin appears visibly less lined but still maintains a natural appearance. The best part is that there were no adverse side effects over the course of the 13 years.✨
