Botox is a common therapy for wrinkles and fine lines around the eyes and mouth. Although it's one of the most common treatments, many people are still unsure about what exactly Botox is and how it works.
What Is Botox ?
Botox is a toxin produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacterium.It's injected into the skin to temporarily paralyze facial muscles in order to reduce wrinkles and fine lines on your face.
How Does It Work?
When you get Botox injections, your doctor will inject small amounts of the toxin into specific areas of your skin. The toxin then blocks nerve impulses from reaching those muscles, which prevents them from contracting and causing wrinkles or frown lines in your forehead or between your eyebrows (frown lines). It takes about 12 days for this effect to wear off completely.
