Neurotoxins
Botox Cosmetics
Botox Cosmetic is a brand name for onabotulinumtoxinA, a purified form of botulinum toxin type A, a neurotoxin.
When injected into the muscles, Botox Cosmetic blocks nerve signals from reaching those muscles, preventing them from contracting. This muscle relaxation leads to a smoothing of the overlying skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
Botox Cosmetic is FDA-approved for treating moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines), crow's feet lines (lateral canthal lines), and forehead lines. It can also be used off-label for other cosmetic purposes.
Botox Cosmetic is administered by a healthcare provider through a series of small injections into the targeted muscles.
The effects of Botox Cosmetic generally last around three to four months; however, the duration can vary significantly depending on several factors.
