Botox, or BOtulinum TOXin, is a toxin produced by a bacterium known as Clostridium botulinum. This toxin can contaminate food (especially canned food, producing a characteristic bulge) and when it does, can cause a form of food poisoning called botulism. A symptom of that condition is a severe form of muscle paralysis. However, scientists found that small doses of it can be exploited for medical purposes in the treatment of conditions where relaxation of muscles is required.
Botox is used in various forms of wrinkle treatment. Treatment includes removal of furrows, lines and creases on the face. Others include the neck, chest and other parts of the body where this effect can be applied for cosmetic reasons.
Muscles control our facial expressions, because they are attached to the skin of the face. Whenever we frown, smile, squint or peer at something, these muscles are brought into action and they cause creases and furrows to form. When these actions are done repetitively over an individual's lifespan, these furrows and lines remain prominent. They are generally seen as a sign of aging.
Botox works by preventing transmission of nerve impulses to muscles. As such, injecting small amounts of Botox into these areas will produce weakening and relaxation of these muscles. This effect causes these lines to disappear.
