Facts You Need To Know About Botox Lincoln

Botox is scientifically known as Botulinum toxin A, a protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium Botulinum, is considered to be one of the most powerful neurotoxins found. It has the ability to temporarily reduce wrinkles on the face. The results can last up to eight months and has become a popular corrective beauty procedure which is less intrusive than plastic surgery and therefore much preferred.



With Botox injections you can regain a youthful appearance because it has the ability to diminish lines and wrinkles, neckbands and crow’s feet  under the eyes. These are called glabellar (frown) lines .How does this work? The toxins attach themselves to nerve endindgs and inhibit muscle contractions by blocking the signals form your brain that tell the muscles to contract.Thus, if the muscles can’t move, the skin above can’t wrinkle. The cosmetic is injected into the muscles that are responsible for causing the wrinkles with their contractions.
Botox® (botulinum toxin type A) is also used to treat blepharospasm, strabismus, and cervical dystonia .These are all conditions that in some way involve spasms, involuntary muscle contractions.
Within a few hours to a couple of days after the botulinum toxin is injected into the affected muscle(s), the spasms or contractions are reduced or eliminated . The effects of the treatment are only temporary,  lasting anywhere from three to eight months. By injecting the toxin directly into a certain muscle or muscle group, the risk of it spreading to other areas of the body is greatly diminished.

Other uses for Botox® are currently under investigation.Evenspasmodic dysphonia, a neurological disorder that affects the muscles of the larynx, responds well to Botox Lincoln treatment. It has also been used to treat other dystonias, such as writer's cramp, l  facial spasms, head and neck tremors and hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating). A recent study has even been conducted to observe its use in treating chronic neck and back pain.
