Botox has gained popularity for men and women alike. It has many uses but the most popular one is to reduce the wrinkles. The toxin paralyzes the muscles so that wrinkle formation will be lessened. This state would stay for at least three to six months. It is also widely used for those who have excessive sweating or hyperhidrosis. It blocks the nerve that is responsible for sweat.

It is one of the known medical treatments to preserve youth and beauty however not everyone can have botox injection. Hypersensitivity to the component is highly contraindicated to prevent anaphylactic shock. It is recommended that for those whose age is below 18 or higher than 65 and those who have infection may not qualify to have a dose. Though there are no proven facts, pregnant and lactating women are not allowed to have an injection while those with neuromuscular disorders should seek for medical consult first or just use other forms of rejuvenating products for precautionary measures.
