Botox
Wrinkle Relaxing Neuromodulator
Botox is a the trade name for a substance called onabotulinumtoxinA, a type of botulinum toxin. This may sound scary, but in actuality this toxin has been used for decades to treat a variety of health issues. In small and controlled doses, Botox offers therapeutic benefits. Spasticity, strabismus (crossed eyes), stress urinary incontinence and chronic migraines are all issues that have been successfully treated with this medicine.
How does Botox work?
Botox is injected into the area of concern, where it targets the nerves responsible for signalling muscle contraction and the transmission of pain sensation. This prevents the nerves from "overworking", thereby resolving the particular health issue.
