Therapeutic and cosmetic use of Botox, its possible side effects and side effects prevention techniques

The human face is the main source of information transmission for many non-verbal messages, including the emotional state of a person. Botox or botulinum toxin is a neurotoxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum that grows and reproduces in canned foods. There are 8 serotypes of this toxin, the B type is mainly used clinically to treat a wide range of disorders and diseases, and the A type is used for cosmetic purposes. Repeated injections of Botox are necessary to maintain its therapeutic effects. Botox injection in the muscles located under the wrinkles of the face causes them to relax and as a result the skin of that part becomes smooth. Botox injection in therapeutic or cosmetic cases is relatively safe and can be an alternative method to the use of drugs or surgery. Although the frequency of serious side effects for the use of Botox in medical cases is much higher than in cases of cosmetic use. However, the use of Botox in beauty may also have side effects that can be avoided by following different techniques.
