The claim “ginger is 100 times more powerful than Botox” is a myth often used in clickbait videos. Ginger cannot replace Botox, and it does not stop muscle movement or erase wrinkles the way Botox does.
That said, ginger can be helpful for skin in a safe, natural way when used correctly.
What ginger actually does for skin (real benefits)
Ginger may:
-
Improve blood circulation (gives a temporary glow)
-
Reduce inflammation and puffiness
-
Support collagen by fighting oxidative stress
-
Help skin look firmer temporarily
⚠️ It does NOT:
-
Freeze muscles
-
Permanently remove wrinkles
-
Work like injections
