Abstract: Spilanthol, in the form of an Acmella oleracea extract, inhibits contractions in subcutaneous muscles, notably those of the face, and can be used as an anti-wrinkle product. A cosmetic treatment procedure for wrinkles consists of locally or subcutaneously applying an effective quantity of a composition based on spilanthol pure or in the form of an Acmella oleracea extract.
