What is a BOTOX® Shot?

"BOTOX® shot" or "BOTOX® injection" are the terms most widely used to describe the procedure of administering the Allergan BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment. To treat wrinkles Botulinum Toxin Type A is applied by BOTOX® shots. Botox is injected, in very small amounts, into specific muscles. Today, BOTOX® shots are extensively used to remove facial lines, especially frown lines, "crow's feet," and forehead lines but very few know that they were originally slated to treat neurological disorders.
