What is Botox?
Botox is a neuromuscular blocking ingredient that limits the transmission of chemicals that instruct muscles to move. In simpler terms, Botox can be defined as a form of purified protein known as botulinum toxin type A. The protein was initially used to treat muscle spasms before being approached for cosmetic treatment.
During the procedure, the doctor or technician will apply Botox to tiny facial muscles responsible for wrinkles on the face. By blocking the transmission of chemicals to those muscles, Botox allows the skin to flatten out and achieve a younger look. It can also have the added advantage of reducing or stopping the occurrence of migraine headaches.
