Botox
Botox is a purified protein produced by the clostridium botulism bacteria. Although Botox is a toxin, there have been no serious side effects with its use. This is because it is used in minute quantities and confined to specific target areas when injected. Injecting Botox blocks the impulses from the nerve to the facial muscles that cause wrinkles. After treatment, the overlying skin remains smooth and unwrinkled while the untreated facial muscles contract in a normal fashion, allowing normal facial expression to be unaffected. |
