Botox or Botulinum toxin is a protein and neurotoxin produced by a bacteria known as Clostridium Botulinum. Botox treatment is a non-invasive method of injecting a protein into the tissues to relax and weaken the muscles that are responsible for the lines and wrinkles on your face. It is an effective anti-wrinkle treatment with high satisfaction rates in the aesthetics industry.

Aging signs such as wrinkles and fine lines are usually caused by repeated facial movements such as speaking, laughing and crying. These expressions train the muscles and cause contraction, which will then form wrinkles. Botox is a type of protein extract that can weaken the action of the neurotransmitter called ‘acetylcholine’. When nerve transmission is blocked, muscles cannot be moved excessively, thus smoothing away and preventing wrinkles.
