Approval: Botox was first approved for cosmetic use by the US Food and Drug Administration in 2002.
It is primarily used to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles.
Mechanism of Action: Botox works by blocking the signals from nerves to muscles. This causes the injected muscle to no longer contract, which makes wrinkles relax and soften, giving the skin a smoother appearance.
Non-Surgical Procedure: Botox is a non-surgical procedure, administered through injections. It's considered minimally invasive and typically has a short recovery time.
Procedure Duration: The procedure usually takes between 10 to 30 minutes, depending on the area being treated
The effects of Botox are temporary, typically lasting between 3 to 6 months.
Common side effects include temporary bruising, pain at the injection site, headache, and, in rare cases, drooping eyelids or eyebrows.
Only qualified health professionals should administer Botox injections, as improper technique can lead to complications.
Some practitioners use Botox off label for other cosmetic procedures, like reducing the appearance of a gummy smile or slimming the jawline.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, Botulinum Toxin Type A (including Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin) was the number one minimally invasive cosmetic procedure performed in the United States in 2020, with over 4.4 million procedures.
