Not just for aesthetic procedures/ Health benefits of Botox

Botox reduces the appearance of wrinkles, giving you youth and a natural glow.

Botox, the neurotoxic protein is known and used mostly for aesthetic procedures.

In 30 years, Botox has become a staple of cosmetic enhancement, but today its therapeutic uses are expanding to cover a variety of health problems, from chronic migraines to eyelid spasms.

One of the main characteristics of Botox is that it always does the same thing, no matter where or what it is used for. 

The powerful toxin comes from a bacterium called Clostridium botulinum and its main property is to cause paralysis. Botox-I is injected into the point of interest and prevents the nerve endings from releasing the neurotransmitters responsible for muscle contraction, making them unable to contract.

But what is Botox used for besides aesthetic treatments?

Chronic migraine

Botox injections can help reduce the frequency of migraines. Treatment is mainly suggested for people who have severe headaches for 15 or more days a month.

Primary hyperhidrosis

In 2004, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Botox to treat severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis, excessive sweating of the armpits, palms, and soles in patients who cannot take antiperspirants.

Bladder syndrome

It is a chronic and often debilitating syndrome resulting from lower urinary tract dysfunction that negatively affects the quality of life of 11-19% of the world's population. It causes a sudden, urgent need to urinate, even when the bladder is not full. The paralytic properties of Botox can help here as well, the FDA has been approving its use since 2013.

Eye twitching

Blepharitis occurs when the eyes twitch involuntarily. A Botox injection helps by relaxing the muscles around the eyes that control the eyelids, and can also be used to relax the muscles that control eye movement to treat strabismus./ CNA
