Botox is a purified protein toxin which is acquired from bacteria called Clostiridium Botolium. Botox is used in order to diminish the wrinkles on the face which is formed by mimic muscles. This protein provides skin to get tense and so to become youthful by relaxing the muscles of which it is used. The reason for wrinkles is spasm of muscles underneath the skin. Because mimic muscles work for a long time the curves on the skin become clear and wrinkles emerges on skin. Usually these curves seem on forehead, between eyebrows, around eyes, around mouth. The curves on forehead and around eyes give person an old impression, the curves between eyebrows give person a grumpy impression. By applying botox to mimic muscles, the movement of these muscles can be decreased and the decrease of the movement of the muscles decreases the skin fold on by muscle act and the furrows dependant on folding. Thus, the expression of senility and angriness can be prevented.

Botox is injected to your face by small injections. By the help of those injections, botox show its effect by cutting the contact between nerves and the organs which nerves contact. Botox blocks the impulses which is sent to those muscles and relaxes the muscle and as a result it maintains the tension of the skin and the reduction of furrows.
