How does BOTOX work?
BOTOX temporarily blocks nerve signals to specific muscles. It contains a purified protein derived from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, which prevents the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contractions. By inhibiting this chemical signal, BOTOX effectively relaxes the targeted muscles, reducing their activity. This minimizes the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines, which are caused by repetitive facial expressions. The effects are temporary, typically lasting 3-4 months, after which the muscles gradually regain their normal function.
