What is botox?
Botox is an aesthetic medical treatment that is part of facial treatments, it is a minimally invasive technique in which botulinum toxin infiltrates certain strategic points of the face, paralyzing the contraction of muscles and softening expression wrinkles. It also attenuates the movements of lowering of the face due to age. In addition to the eyebrows, forehead and crow's feet are injected in other places of the face to increase the action of the lifting muscles and produce lifting or stretching of the skin.
