Botox Cream - Strivectin Provides Botox Results In Cream Form

In multiple clinical and blind tests it has been shown that both Botox and Strivectin are highly effective against facial skin wrinkles. The comparison ends there though; because on the surface it may seem that they are similar they couldn’t in fact be more different from each other.

Why Is Strivectin Considered a Botox Cream?

Strivectin in fact is often referred to as a Botox cream because it works on areas of the face that are too delicate for Botox injections. Another reason that Strivectin is referred to as Botox cream is, because it is applied topically while Botox requires injections by a syringe. Botox is quite simply a muscle paralyzing agent that is derived from the same bacteria that causes botulism by paralyzing the intestinal and stomach muscles if it is ingested.

When Botox is injected into the facial tissues it paralyzes the facial muscles that are causing wrinkles by uncontrolled contractions such as on the forehead and the sides of the face. Botox can also be injected in the more delicate areas around the lips and eyes but then it can and often does have the side effect of leaving people without facial expressions.

They can smile with their mouths but their eyes, corners of their lips, and eye brows are paralyzed so they are left with what one popular actress called Frankenstein face. Strivectin works as a Botox cream that can be applied around these delicate areas and in fact tightens the connective skin tissue that Botox would tend to cripple.

Strivectin works on a layer of connective tissue between the dermal and epidermal layers of the skin. This area is called the dermal-epidermal junction and its job is to hold these two layers of skin together. With exposure to the suns radiation and age the dermal-epidermal junction can become thin and the connective fibers weakened and stretched causing fine lines on the thin skin of the face, such as around the eyes and the lips.

Strivectin Remains the Premier Botox Cream Available To Date

Strivectin shortens and fills out these fine lines that are sometimes called crow’s feet by thickening and contracting the connective tissues in the dermal-epidermal junction. It is highly effective and the results of its use are cumulative with time. Botox does have its place such as up on the forehead and on the cheeks where involuntary muscle contraction wrinkles are often seen, but for the thin delicate skin of the face that is involved in facial expressions, Strivectin is as effective as a Botox cream, that doesn’t have Botox side effects.
