Botox & Fillers

Botox has become a very commonly used term in today’s world. In cosmetic applications, botulinum toxin is considered safe and effective for reduction of facial wrinkles, especially in the uppermost third of the face. Injection of botulinum toxin into the muscles under facial wrinkles causes relaxation of those muscles, resulting in the smoothing of the overlying skin. Smoothing of wrinkles is usually visible three days after treatment and is maximally visible two weeks following injection. The treated muscles gradually regain function, and generally return to their former appearance three to four months after treatment. Muscles can be treated repeatedly to maintain the smoothed appearance.

After injecting Botox to the face, the skin would appear unwrinkled and smooth. However, in the areas where the drug isn’t administered, the muscles continue to contract and the person’s facial expression remains the same. Active component Botox is the protein, which blocks nervously-muscular transfer and weakens overactive muscles. As a rule, the preparation remains only in the processed muscle and gradually resolves, not breaking up to parts and not moving on all body.

What Are These Injections Made Up Of?

Botox (onabotulinumtoxinA), also called botulinum toxin type A, is made from the bacteria that causes botulism. Botulinum toxin blocks nerve activity in the muscles, causing a temporary reduction in muscle activity. Botox is used to treat cervical dystonia (severe spasms in the neck muscles)
