Cosmetic Injections

Botox® (Botulinum Toxin) injections enhance one’s appearance by relaxing the muscles responsible for causing wrinkles. They are also used to treat various medical conditions, such as migraines, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), an overactive bladder, and certain eye disorders. To maintain the effects, treatments should be repeated every three to six months.

How does Botox work?

Botox works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles, preventing them from contracting (tensing). While the effects are always temporary, they can last for several months. The specific muscle targeted depends on the main area of concern, and multiple areas can be treated during a single session.

Eyebrows

What is Botox made of?

The neurotoxins used in Botox are produced by a bacterium called Clostridium botulinum. For medical injections, healthcare professionals use a specific strain known as type A.

Botulinum toxins occur naturally in soil and contaminated food. Ingesting large amounts or having the bacteria enter a wound can lead to botulism—a serious neurological condition that can affect breathing. To ensure safety and effectiveness, Botox is manufactured in a laboratory setting, where the toxins are carefully purified, diluted, and sterilised to eliminate the risk of causing botulism.
