Botox (botulinum toxin) is a toxin obtained from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. It works by preventing the release of substances that cause transmission in nerve endings and stopping transmission between nerves and organs reached by the nerves. As a result, the functions of the organ reached by the nerve are reduced or lost altogether.
Botox can be used for aesthetic and cosmetic purposes, to reduce or prevent the formation of facial wrinkles caused by facial muscle movements. It can also be used to reduce sweating in areas of excessive perspiration and in the treatment of chronic migraines.
The diluted form of botulinum toxin is injected intramuscularly to paralyze or weaken the muscles that cause wrinkles.
Botulinum toxins were first studied in the late 1960s to treat neurological disorders. Botox first received FDA approval in 1989 to treat eye muscle disorders. It was found that the wrinkles between the eyebrows were softened as a side effect during the treatment of eye muscle diseases.
In April 2002, the FDA approved Botox to reduce the severity of wrinkles for 120 days. Botox is the most popular non-surgical cosmetic procedure.
Wrinkles caused by muscle contractions such as B. Wrinkles between the eyebrows, crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles and neck bands can be treated safely and successfully with Botox.
When you go to your doctor for the Botox injection, you will be asked to make various facial movements (e.g. frowning) so that the best area for the injection can be seen. The injection is made with a fine needle directly into the muscle.
Ask your doctor about the benefits and risks of the procedure.
Favor a medical environment where sterile techniques are used and where the necessary equipment for possible problems is available.
