What Is Cosmetic Botox and How Does it Work?

Botox Edmonton is a purified protein derived from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. When injected into targeted muscles, Botox temporarily blocks nerve signals that cause muscle contractions.

By relaxing the muscles that create expression lines – such as frown lines, forehead creases, and crow’s feet – Botox smooths the skin and prevents deeper lines from forming without dramatically altering your facial expressions.

Botox vs. Other Neurotoxin Brands

Botox:
The first neuromodulator approved for cosmetic use (2002), widely studied and trusted. Provides precise control and predictable results.
Dysport:
Also a type A neuromodulator. Some studies suggest a slightly faster onset and broader diffusion, beneficial for treating larger areas such as forehead lines.
Xeomin:
A highly purified formulation without accessory proteins. This “naked” toxin may reduce the risk of antibody development over time.
Nuceiva:
A newer neuromodulator similar to Botox. It relaxes muscles to smooth wrinkles with comparable dosing and duration.
