What is Botox?

Botox is the brand name of Botulinum Toxin A, is a protein and a neurotoxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium Botulinum. It is a prescription medicine that is injected into muscles to reverse the signs of aging. It is a non-surgical solution, which is opted by people between the age of 18-65yrs as a temporary solution to fine lines and wrinkles.
