DESCRIPTION

This presentation explains how Botox works on the body, and why it is used so often today. Transcription: What Is Botox? Botox is a trade name for botulinum toxin A. How Does Botox Work? In a nut shell, Botox blocks the signals that tell your muscles to contract. Thus, allowing the muscles that cause wrinkling to relax. Results can be seen within 24-72 hours. 6,321,160 Botox procedures were performed in 2013. Botox is used in certain areas of the face to help smooth out the wrinkles. Other common uses for Botox: migraines, overactive bladder, strabismus, blepharospasm, among other conditions. What are the side effects of Botox? Common side effects include: -Temporary redness or swilling of little bumps at injection -Temporary bruising at injections sites. Ways to Avoid Risk: -Make sure you are being treated by a licensed and trained Registered Nurse or Surgeon who specializes in injections. -Make sure you tell your provider of all allergies and reactions.
