BOTOX INJECTIONS
WHAT IS A BOTOX INJECTION
WHAT IS BOTOX (BOTULINUM TOXIN INJECTIONS)?
Botulinum toxin is commonly known by the brand name Botox, is a neurotoxin derived from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. In small controlled doses, Botox is used for both medical and aesthetic purposes. Botox is a popular injectable nonsurgical treatment that helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines by temporarily relaxing the muscles beneath the skin. It is commonly used to treat forehead lines, crow’s feet, and frown lines.

HOW DO Botox WORK?
Botox works by blocking the signals from the nerves to the muscles, preventing them from contracting. This allows the skin above to smooth out, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. By injecting Botox into specific muscles, we can prevent unwanted muscle contractions that contribute to the formation of wrinkles.
