BOTOX® treatments aren’t used just for wrinkles, as they have been proven to work well in many other areas of the body.
One unique way in which BOTOX® injections have proven efficient is when the treatments are injected into the prostate gland of men who have been diagnosed with prostatic hyperplasia, commonly referred to as enlarged prostate. When Botulinum toxin A, or BOTOX®, is injected into the prostate gland, symptoms of the enlarged prostate were subdued and it was found their quality of life was improved.
BOTOX® has also been used in research to better understand how nerve cells communicate amongst themselves. Researching basic cell function and changes, and learning about causes of nerve disease are some of the alternate uses to the potent neurotoxin.
Other uses include human therapy, in treatment for conditions such as strabismus (cross-eyes) voice, head and limb tremor, spasticity, stuttering, involuntary movements and painful rigidity. The nerve cells injected with BOTOX® are not killed, but instead begin to emit sprouts which cause the injected nerve cells to be revived.
BOTOX® Cosmetics is a purified protein produced by Clostridium botulinum bacterium. Treatment is administered by injecting small doses of BOTOX® Cosmetic into the muscle that causes wrinkle lines. The entire process usually takes less than 10 minutes, and recovery is immediate. Results are able to be seen within days.
Although the results are temporary, BOTOX® treatments have gained popularity all over the U.S. and throughout the world because of the simplicity of the procedure and fast immediate results. But many people aren’t yet aware of other uses for BOTOX®. When the toxin is injected into the muscle, it works to block the nerve impulses, temporarily paralyzing the muscles that cause wrinkles. This causes the skin to become smoother, with a more refreshed appearance. Studies have shown that BOTOX® is also effective in relieving migraines, excessive sweating, and muscle spasms in the neck and eyes as well.
BOTOX® has also been known to help those who are suffering with incontinence. The use of BOTOX® on an overactive bladder works by stopping the spasms of the bladder muscle. This gives the patient more control over the bladder, giving the patient more control. The procedure takes about 10 minutes, just about as long as it takes when injected into facial muscles. The patient is awake, but slightly sedated.
