Botox (botulinum toxin) is a medication that paralyzes muscles and is indicated for aesthetic treatments and facial rejuvenation, as it softens wrinkles and expression lines.
Botox works by blocking nerve conduction by inhibiting the release of acetylcholine, a neuromuscular neurotransmitter. This leads to relaxation of the muscle where the botulinum toxin was injected, promoting the relief of diseases or skin rejuvenation for aesthetic purposes.
