Everything You Need to Know About Neurotoxins & Fillers.

Originally used to treat muscular conditions, Botox is among the most well-known cosmetic injections. It’s a neurotoxin that affects the nerves, temporarily weakening the muscles that may be showing signs of aging and resulting in a temporary smoothing effect.

‍

The most common use of these injections is to temporarily relax the facial muscles that cause wrinkles in the forehead and around the eyes. Neurotoxins are also used to treat conditions that affect how the body functions. Examples include:

• Cervical dystonia.
• Lazy eye.
• Muscle contractures.
• Hyperhidrosis.
• Chronic migraine.
• Bladder dysfunction.
• Eye twitching.

Injections usually begin working one to three days after treatment. Depending on the problem being treated, the effect may last three months or longer. To maintain the effect, you'll need regular follow-up injections.
