Botox, a brand name for a sterile lyophilized form of botulinum type A, works by temporarily paralyzing muscles, which can reduce the appearance of wrinkles and prevent new ones from forming.

When injected in small, controlled doses into specific facial muscles, Botox blocks the nerve signals that cause muscles to contract. This relaxation of the muscles leads to a smoother, more youthful appearance of the skin overlaying them. The effects are most noticeable in dynamic wrinkles, which are formed by facial expressions like frowning, squinting, or smiling. Botox is not only used for cosmetic purposes but also for medical conditions that involve muscle spasms, such as chronic migraines, excessive sweating, incontinence, and certain muscular disorders.
