Taking to social media, Dr. Neera, a specialist in dermatology revealed the ingredient you need to add to your skincare routine.
She said: 'It isn’t Botox, but it is as close to “topical Botox” or “Botox in a bottle” as you can get.'
In the clip she revealed what the special wrinkle-banishing ingredient was called - Argireline.
Dr. Neera explained: "Argireline (also known as acetyl-hexapeptide-3 or acetyl-hexapeptide-8) is a peptide that is available in serums and works similar to Botox by blocking neurotransmitters to help relax muscles to smooth deep lines or wrinkles (like 11’s, frown lines, smile lines or crows feet).
The best part about the ingredient is that it didn't cost lots of money to get your hands on, unlike Botox.
"It is a cheap alternative to Botox that doesn’t require a prescription, is needle free and can be used topically to produce natural results," she continued.
The video posted to her TikTok account @soon went viral with over 800k views and 40k likes.
People were curious as to where to find the ingredient and one person revealed they swore by one product.
