The Therapy of Botox

Cosmetic Botox is based off of the protein botulinum toxin. Although considered one of the most powerful neurotoxins, certain compounds used in small doses are common for use in medical and cosmetic procedures. The relatively harmless dosages make the compound safe, yet effective for performing certain procedures.

For therapeutic purposes, Botox is used for controlling muscle spasms, as the neurotoxin focuses on reducing muscle activity or paralyzing the muscle. By doing this, muscle spasms can be treated, as well as several other conditions. In cosmetics, Botox can be used to reduce wrinkles and make the skin look more youthful. Botox has also been known to be used as an effective method for reducing excessive sweat, particularly under the armpits.
