How it Works
Botox or botulinum toxin type A is a neuromodulating drug made from a protein within the bacterium Clostridium botulinum.
It has been in use since the 1970s. There are several types of botulinum toxin protein, but types A and B are used widely in commercial cosmetic and medical applications.
Botox works by breaking up the neurologic chain of command on a chemical level. The toxin, once injected, takes some time to work. It begins to block the release of chemical signals to the muscles within a day after injection, with full muscular relaxation appearing after about 2 to 3 weeks.
