Botox Surgery

Botox is a brand name for the medicines that use the different forms of botulinum toxin to weaken or paralyze certain muscles, or sometimes block certain nerves. Botox is produced by a bacterium known as Clostridium botulinum. Botulinum toxin injections block certain chemical signals from nerves, mostly signals that cause muscles to contract. The most common use of these injections is to temporarily relax the facial muscles that underlie and cause wrinkles, such as:

  • Frown lines between the eyebrows
  • Crow's-feet, the lines that fan out from the corners of the eyes
  • Forehead furrows, the horizontal lines that form when you raise your eyebrows
