The popularity of Botox® has grown steadily in recent years, especially in the Hollywood and Los Angeles areas. Though many people know the Botox® product by name, we here at LaserAway in Los Angeles have found that many people do not know exactly what Botox® is and what Botox® does.

For one thing, there are two kinds of Botox®, Botox® Cosmetic and Botox® neurotoxin. Botox® neurotoxin is used to reduce muscle activity in various parts of the body with the goal of alleviating muscle strain and problems associated with muscle strain. The most common uses of Botox® neurotoxin are to treat muscle pain, muscle tightness, cervical dystonia, blepharospasm (which is characterized by uncontrolled twitching of the eye or eyes), and hyperhidrosis (which is excessive sweating). Botox® Cosmetic, however, was designed specially for the face and focuses on eliminating facial lines and wrinkles. Botox® Cosmetic also reduces muscle activity, just like Botox® neurotoxin. Botox® Cosmetic, however, has the added result that when the muscles in your face relax and are not over-active, the fine lines ...
... and wrinkles in your face that result from constantly-moving muscles disappear.

Botox® Cosmetic is comprised of bacteria named Clostridium botulinum, which produce a substance that is the active ingredient in Botox®. Botox® Cosmetic is the only treatment of its kind to be approved by the FDA for treatment of frown lines and wrinkles for people between the ages of 18 and 65. Botox® treatments can be administered at LaserAway in Los Angeles in just ten to fifteen minutes with a few tiny injections just under the surface of your skin. Results are immediate and can last for up to four months, though some people experience longer or shorter results.

In clinical trials, 90% of people reported improvement in frown lines one month after Botox® treatments, and the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery has ranked Botox® Cosmetic as the most popular physician-administered aesthetic procedure in the United States for the fourth year in a row out of all surgical and non-surgical treatments.
