Periocular Botox injection is a cosmetic procedure in which botulinum toxin (Botox) is injected into the muscles around the eyes to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and crow’s feet. Botox works by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles, preventing the formation of dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle movement.

This procedure is minimally invasive and typically requires no downtime. It is performed in an outpatient setting and can provide noticeable results within a few days.

Periocular Botox injections are commonly used for aesthetic purposes but can also treat conditions like blepharospasm, a condition causing involuntary eyelid twitching.
