Botox injections have been around for several years and first came to the attention of the general population when celebrities were getting them for red-carpet appearances. Since then, Botox has come a long way, and has become an affordable treatment that many average Americans, and people around the world, have started using to help minimize the signs of aging. Botox is a substance that can safely be injected under the surface of the skin using an ultrafine needle to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the face. While used primarily for its anti-aging benefits, Botox can also be used to help provide relief from medical conditions such as migraines, excessive sweating, neck spasms, lazy eye, and an overactive bladder. The ingredients in Botox work by blocking communication between the brain and muscles in the treated area of the face, disabling them from being able to contract when the face performs common wrinkle-causing expressions.
