What is Botox?
Botox comes from a kind of bacteria. The bacteria can make you very sick. But doctors have found a chemical in Botox can also help teat some health problems. They have been using it safetly for many years.
How Was this Found?
Food Drug Administration (FDA) approved Botox to treat problems with the eye muscle. Doctors noticed that some wrinkles around the eyes looked better, too.
How Does Botox work?
Wrinkles may be caused when a muscle tightens. Botox is injected through the skin into the muscle. The botox keeps the muscle from tightening. When the muscle can't tighten, the wrinkle doesn't show as much.
What! You can't move your muscles?
A doctor trainted in the use of botox will inject small amounts of Botox into the muscle. Only the treated muscle can't move.
What happens over time?
Botox works for about four months. As the muscle returns to normal, you will see the wrinkle again.
Are there any side effects?
Side effects may include: droopy eyelids, which can last for a few weeks; feeling like you have the flu; headaches and upset stomach, risk of botulism (a life or death illness that makes it hard for a person to move the arms and legs or to breathe) is low with Botox, if used the right away
(this will make me runaway from Botox!)
Remember Botox is a drug, not a cosmetic!
