Botox is a medical form of Botulinum Toxin, a protein obtained from bacteria called Clostridium Botulinum. This method, which is frequently used in cosmetic applications, reduces the appearance of lines and wrinkles on the skin by temporarily neutralizing the muscles.

Botox Applications are very effective in reducing fine lines and wrinkles on the skin. It also has various medical uses such as controlling excessive sweating, relieving migraine headaches and treating certain muscle disorders. It is often preferred in aesthetic applications such as correcting expression lines on the face, reducing neck lines, and giving the skin a younger and more dynamic appearance.

Botox is mostly used in facial areas such as forehead, between the eyebrows, around the eyes (crow's feet lines). It can also be used to reduce neck lines. It can also be applied to the armpits or hands and feet to control sweating.

Botox Treatment is performed by physicians experienced in the field of Medical Aesthetics. During the procedure, Botox substance is injected under the skin using a fine needle. These injections relax the muscles and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. The procedure takes 10 to 30 minutes and does not require any anesthesia.

The Botox effect starts to show within 1 to 3 days. However, in some cases this can take up to a week. Full results are seen after 1 to 2 weeks. Botox effect may vary from person to person and lasts for 6 to 12 months.

What is Botox

Botox is a toxin derived from the bacterium Clostridium Botulinum. It works by blocking the release of substances that provide conduction at the nerve endings and stopping the conduction between the nerves and the muscles that the nerves reach. In this way, muscles relax, wrinkles are reduced or disappear. Botox is a treatment method that can be used for both aesthetic and medical purposes. It is a preferred method especially to remove facial mimic wrinkles on the face.

What is in Botox

The main component of Botox is Botulinum Toxin type A. Although this toxin is a very powerful poison, it provides a safe & effective treatment when administered in the right doses and in the right places. Botox also contains human albumin (a protein) and sodium chloride (a salt).
