Botulinum toxin is a substance that is used in aesthetic medicine for beauty treatments. Treatments with its use are primarily aimed at reversing the skin aging processes and eliminating mimic wrinkles.
The botulinum toxin area of action is not large and covers only selected muscles. The rest of the muscles are functioning as normal, so the face still looks natural. At the site of the injection of the toxin, the skin stops wrinkling and the wrinkles become shallower.
