What is Botox?

    Botox is a neurotoxin derived from a bacterium called Clostridium botulinum. Botulinum toxin, in other words Botox, blocks the release of substances that provide transmission in the nerve endings, blocking the transition from the nerve to the target organ. Thus, it causes a decrease or complete loss of function in the target organ. After the Botox injection, the toxin binds to the nerve cell within about half an hour. In the ongoing process, Botox causes changes in the chemical properties of the nerve cell to which it is attached and has an effect that stops the functioning of the nerve. The release of the neurotransmitter substance called acetylcholine, which stimulates the muscles through the nerve cells, is prevented by botulinum toxin and causes temporary relaxation in the muscles that cannot be stimulated by the nerve cell in that area.
