Botulinum toxin (Botox)

Botox, or botulinum toxin, is a protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, primarily used in aesthetic medicine to reduce the appearance of wrinkles. By targeting the underlying subcutaneous muscles, it blocks nerve signal transmission, preventing the muscle contractions that cause dynamic wrinkles. Although it is widely used, Botox must be administered by qualified professionals, as improper use can result in side effects ranging from mild to severe.
