What is Botox treatment?

Botox is a brand name for botulinum toxin, a prescription-only medicine used in both aesthetic and medical treatments. It works by temporarily blocking nerve signals to targeted muscles, which may reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles, such as those on the forehead or around the eyes. Botulinum toxin is also used for certain medical conditions, including excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) and chronic migraine. Results typically last between 3 and 6 months, although this can vary between individuals. Treatments should always be carried out by a qualified and appropriately registered medical professional.
