Can blepharospasm cause wrinkles?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: The contraction of muscles and folding of the skin, along with the aging process of the skin! so the increasing frequency of the skin does cause wrinkles. I have seen people with hemi-facial spasm(only one side of the face). They have significantly more wrinkles on that side.

Yes: Definitely. Botox can treat blepharospasm and decrease or prevent wrinkling. See a dermatologist, ophthalmologist, or facial plastic surgeon for exam/treatment.
