“While many people probably think that snake venom is harmful, it actually can produce anti-aging benefits when applied topically to the skin. Some are even of the opinion that the results are better than Injectable neurotoxins! Through years of research, it has been found out that snake venom temporarily inhibits muscle activity, which prevents and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Also, it is painless, affordable and relatively hassle-free, which makes it a viable alternative to invasive procedures like lasers and Injectable neurotoxins,” said Dr. Madhulika Mhatre, MBBS,MD,(Gold Medalist), FRGUHS (Aesthetic Dermatology), FMUHS (Trichology) in a statement.
