Description
A sterile, white lyophilized powder supplied in a transparent glass vial, which becomes a clear, colorless solution when reconstituted with sterile normal saline (0.9% sodium chloride).
Mechanism of Action
The product works by inhibiting the release of acetylcholine, the neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contraction. This leads to temporary relaxation or paralysis of the targeted muscles in the injected area.
When diluted to a safe concentration and injected precisely into facial muscles, the botulinum toxin reduces excessive muscle activity, resulting in the softening of wrinkles and fine lines.
Dynamic facial wrinkles, such as deep frown lines, are caused by repetitive muscle contractions. By blocking the nerve signals that trigger these contractions, botulinum toxin treatment effectively smooths and relaxes facial wrinkles, restoring a more relaxed and youthful appearance.
