Botox
Botox is a popular cosmetic treatment derived from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. It temporarily reduces or eliminates facial lines and wrinkles by paralysing muscles. Medical professionals also use Botox to treat various conditions, such as chronic migraines, muscle spasms, and excessive sweating. Its effects usually last three to six months.
