Botox

Botulinum toxin, a muscle relaxant, is a medical treatment derived from the bacterium Clostidium botulinum. It is mainly used for wrinkle treatment. Over time, there is a decrease in cell production of skin, collagen and elastic fibers. When we laugh, cry, get mad when we cheer up, we cause facial movements of various muscles in the face that contract and cause wrinkles in the areas. Botulinum toxin is a purified protein that relaxes the muscles. It temporarily stops muscle contractions by temporarily stopping the nerve conduction that controls muscle movement and preventing the release of acetylcholine, resulting in contraction. When Botox is administered in a suitable dosage, reliable results are achieved. This results in a smoother and firmer appearance of the skin. At the end of the treatment the facial expression is more dynamic and younger. Botox is a medical therapy that has been used for treatment in more than 80 countries for almost 32 years.
