What is Botox Therapy?
Botox is a purified botulinum toxin and is used to soften facial lines and wrinkles. Botox works well for forehead lines, crows feet, and frown lines. Botox is injected into the muscle in these areas and works by weakening the muscle, which in turn lessens the lines of facial expression. Botox relaxes the muscles so they do not contract fully. Botox blocks impulses from the nerve to the tiny facial muscles that are related to expression lines.
