What is BOTOX® ?
BOTOX® Cosmetic is approved for the temporary treatment of moderate to severe frown lines between the brows in people ages 18–65.
BOTOX® is an injectable solution that is used for the reduction and/or removal of vertical lines between the eyebrows, horizontal forehead lines, crow's feet, horizontal lines on the neck, laugh lines, and migraine headaches.
BOTOX® is registed Trademark of Allergan, Inc.

How Does BOTOX® Therapy Work?
A few drops of Botox® are injected with a tiny needle into the muscle that creates a wrinkle. When Botox®is injected into a muscle, it blocks the nerve impulse from reaching that area, and, as a result, the muscle weakens. As the muscle weakens, the skin overlying the muscle relaxes and the wrinkles in the skin gradually soften and often disappear. Botox® treatment does not affect normal facial expressions.

Who is a right candidate for BOTOX® Therapy?
The best candidates for Botox® treatment are men and women who are physically healthy, psychologically stable, and realistic in their expectations. Most are 30 or older, but you may decide to have this procedure at a younger age in order to prevent premature wrinkles from appearing.

What will be the results of BOTOX® Therapy?
Dramatic responses are often seen within a few days. However, the results are in most cases temporary and may need to be repeated after 3 to 6 months.

How about safety & side effects?
This procedure is one of the safest available for reduction of wrinkles. BOTOX® has been used safely and successfully in ophthalmology for over 12 years and for wrinkle therapy for almost 10 years. It has been approved by the FDA for neurological disorders. In the amounts used for wrinkle therapy, the only possible side effects are temporary and localized to the area of injection. However, medical treatment is not an exact science and the degree of the improvement is variable. Occasionally, there is no improvement and another form of treatment may be required.

Article-1-Botox Injections for Cosmetic Purposes
Botox® Injections for Cosmetic Purposes
Botox® is an abbreviated name for botulinum toxin, a drug produced by bacteria called Clostridium botulinum. The bacteria itself can make you very sick, but doctors have found that the chemical in Botox® can also help treat some health problems. Botox® has been in use since the 1970s, when it was first injected into muscles of the eye for the treatment of amblyopia, or "lazy eye." It has also been used in the treatment of patients with overactive muscles of the face and neck.
Botox® was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat certain diseases of the eye muscles. Doctors noticed that some wrinkles around the eyes looked better, too. The company that makes Botox® tested it. They showed the FDA that Botox® worked and was safe for treating certain types of wrinkles.
Botox® has been used in aesthetic surgery since the early 1990s. It is used to improve the look of mild to severe frown lines for a short time. When Botox® is injected through the skin into the muscle with a needle, it keeps the muscle from contracting. Because of this temporary paralysis, wrinkles become less obvious. A trained doctor will inject small amounts of Botox into a small part of the muscle so only that muscle cannot move.
Horizontal wrinkles of the forehead, vertical "frown" wrinkles of the brow (between the eyebrows), and crow's feet beside the eyes are the areas best suited for treatment with Botox®.
The action of Botox is temporary. Results will be apparent within 24 to 48 hours and will last from two to five months; treatment must then be repeated.
Side effects of Botox treatment include minor swelling and bruising, headache, and nausea. And although unusual, there is the possibility that the muscles that elevate the eyebrow could be paralyzed, causing the upper brow to droop for a week or more.
There are no drugs that an otherwise healthy patient might be taking that are known to interact with Botox.
If you are considering Botox® Injections, remember that Botox is a drug, not a cosmetic. Make sure you are treated by a trained doctor in an office or hospital. In addition, ensure your safety by verifying the following information before you have a procedure:
Make sure the doctor is trained in cosmetic skin surgery of the face. Ask about the benefits and risks of the treatment. Choose a medical setting where everything is kept clean and germ-free. Emergency equipment should be on hand in case of a problem. Do not drink alcohol and do not lie down for several hours after the treatment. Finally, a word about "Botox parties." It's been noted in the media that some doctors or other professionals have chosen to distribute Botox® treatments at gatherings in homes, salons, or other non-medical settings. Not a great idea.
Botox® is approved for selling in single-use tubes. Each tube is made to be used only once and only for one patient. Also, Botox needs to be used within 4 hours after the tube is opened. Using the tube more than once can spread germs, and treating more than one person with one tube goes against the product directions.
