The chemical composition is that of a highly diluted form of the neurotoxin that causes botulism. This neurotoxin is also purified and grown in a laboratory. When it is injected, this Botox will literally paralyze a muscle group through the means of blocking the interaction between the muscle group and the nerves that control them. Basically this procedure does nothing more than relaxes the muscles and prevent them from spontaneous contractions. By preventing certain muscle contractions, the patient can have a younger looking face without all of the wrinkles which are caused by muscle contractions. This product was first developed as a remedy to a child who squinted too much, from there it moved on to helping people with forceful involuntary muscle spasms like the ones that cause stuttering or bladder release at inopportune moments.
Botox cannot help you with fine lines or natural sagging of the skin as a result of aging but it can help with issues caused by muscles like frown lines and crows feet. For these many people suggest using a Botox cream or other botox products. But wait, there is no Botox cream as this would not be safe. The fact that Botox is a neurotoxin which needs to be administered by a licensed professional means that there is no way to put it into a cream form. Doing so would mean that anyone could possibly get botulism or even cause serious heart and lung failures. But all that a Botox cream would really do is numb the skin and possibly give you food poisoning.
If you are looking for a Botox cream then chances are what you are looking for is an age defying cream. These creams in general are composed of collagen a naturally occurring substance in all mammals and not made from Botox, or any neurotoxin for that matter. If you are looking for a cream then you should be looking for an age defying collagen based cream which can be applied by your own hands. Cautions should still be taken as there is still no substantial proof that the skin can even absorb the molecules in the creams and if they will even work. |
