Botox is an artificial substance. It is a brand name for a laboratory-produced chemical called botulinum toxin. It relaxes and “freezes” facial and other muscles.
Traditionally, Botox has been used to treat people with eye and facial spasms. Botox is also used to treat people with excessive perspiration. There is evidence that it also helps in the treatment of headaches and migraine.
Unlike collagen, Botox is not used to enhance lips or cheeks. It is used to get rid of lines and wrinkles. Like collagen, its effects are long-lasting. The effects of collagen are immediate.
