What Is Botox Treatment?
Botox is a brand name for botulinum toxin, an extract obtained by fermentation of a bacterium called Clostridium botulinum found in the soil. This advanced minimally-invasive skin treatment performed by expert dermatologists involves injecting this extract into the target area to reduce the appearance of facial creases, fine lines and wrinkles.
Botox works by reducing the chemical signals from the nervous system to the target area, thereby decreasing the contractions of facial muscles and relaxing them. This ultimately reduces the visible signs of ageing by softening the overlying skin.
A word of caution, you should undergo Botox treatment at a reputed skin clinic only when performed by a qualified dermatologist who is an expert at using it correctly in small quantities for the best anti-ageing results to avoid complications.

You may feel a slight stinging sensation, redness, and bruising during the Botox treatment.
