Botox is injected into specific muscles. It blocks the release of a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine, which controls muscle contractions. This temporarily relaxes the muscles, smoothing out wrinkles and lines on the skin's surface.
The effect is localized and wears off over time as nerve-muscle communication returns to normal.
