How does Botox work?
Botox is a bacteria derived toxin that blocks impulses from the nerve which is responsible for the deep muscle pull creases to our minute facial muscles. In response, the undesirable creases fade away due to muscle relaxation. Post treatment, the overlying skin of the muscles maintains its smooth and unwrinkled appearance, while the untreated muscles continue to contract normally which allows for the sought-after facial expression to be unaffected.
