Botox

BOTOX is the trade name for a toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. This bacterium is usually found in forests, fields and in the body of some birds and mammals, as well as in some foods. The problem caused by this bacterium and contaminated food or substance produced by this toxin is called “botulism” and can cause paralysis and death, depending on its use. However, scientists have found useful and therapeutic uses for this toxin. Considering its importance in medicine and industry, they produce it in sterile laboratories, free from any contamination, so that it does not cause any problems to the patient. By injecting very small and diluted amounts of botulinum toxin directly into specific muscles, it causes the control of these muscles to weaken. There are seven types of botulinum toxin serotypes, five of which (G.F.E.B.A) act at the synapse where nerves connect to muscles in humans. Commercially available botulinum toxin type A products include “Dysport” and “Botox”, manufactured by Ipsen and Allergan respectively. Injecting this substance into the body is called a “Botox injection”.

Mechanism of action of Botox

A muscle or group of muscles contracts when a chemical called acetyl choline is released by nerve cells or neurons. Botulinum toxin type A acts at the synapse where nerves and muscles meet and blocks the release of acetyl choline from the nerve endings. When Botox is injected into a specific area at the right time, this drug replaces acetyl choline between the muscle cells and in this way blocks the release of acetyl choline by the nerve cells, prevents the muscles from contracting and as a result wrinkles and lines do not form. When not used for a long time, dynamic wrinkles diminish over time and prevent the muscles from contracting, preventing new wrinkles from forming. Botox injections have significant effects in preventing dynamic wrinkles from forming and prevent dynamic wrinkles from becoming permanent and turning into static or permanent wrinkles. However, Botox has no effect on skin tissue.

Therapeutic Uses of Botox:

– Migraine and headache problems
– Hyperhidrosis (or excessive sweating under the armpits, palms and soles of the feet)
– Dystrophy (Note: Dystrophy refers to a group of diseases in which muscles weaken and lose their function).
-Fistula
-Hemorrhoids
-Bladder treatment

The Effect of Botox in Reducing Migraine Pain

Botox is a treatment used to reduce migraine pain. Botox prevents pain messages from reaching the brain by blocking the neurotransmitters that transmit pain signals from the brain. In this way, people with migraine pain do not feel pain. Botox is injected into the head and face to create a neural blockade to prevent migraine pain from occurring. This method can be effective in different types of migraines, including all types of migraines caused by muscle spasms. The administration of Botox injections is different from Botox injections for facial beauty and should be performed by a brain and nerve specialist. Botox injections help treat migraines by reducing the number of migraine attacks and the effect lasts for approximately 3 months. Therefore, the treatment should be repeated every three months.

The Effect of Botox in Controlling Excessive Sweating

Hyperhidrosis is a condition of excessive sweating in areas such as the palms, armpits, face and soles of the feet, the etiology of which is not clearly defined. This condition can be a significant source of discomfort for individuals and may require medical intervention.

Common treatment options include locally applied aluminum chloride salts and oral anticholinergic medications. Surgical treatment may involve surgical nerve incision in the thoracic region or localized removal of sweat glands. The success rate of surgical intervention is approximately seventy percent, but in some cases excessive sweating may return after surgery and the surgical procedure may carry with it certain risks.

In contrast, botulinum toxin, or Botox injections, block the release of acetylcholine in the sweat glands, making a significant advance in the control of hyperhidrosis. The injections are administered as a mesh at 1 to 2 centimeter intervals in a specific area.

The response to treatment depends on the injection site. For areas such as the armpits, palms or soles of the feet, the injection dose used on each side is between 50 and 100 units. Sweating reduction is observed within 1 to 2 weeks after the injection and the effect can last for 3 to 9 months. Botox injections in the armpit are administered under the skin.

The Effect of Botox in Controlling Excessive Sweating*

Injections into the palm of the hand can be administered as intradermal injections under the skin to control hyperhidrosis, which can be painful and may require a nerve block.

In 2004, Botox injections were introduced as a non-invasive treatment option approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for individuals over the age of 18 who do not respond to local skin treatments for severe sweating symptoms.

The Effect of Botox on Dystrophy

We may have all seen people who regularly experience eyelid spasms, asymmetrical movements of their face or a constant trembling or tilting of their neck. These conditions fall within a range of neurological disorders called dystonia. Here are some of these types of dystonia, “blepharospasm,” which can be effectively treated with Botox “hemifacial spasm,” and “cervical dystonia.” Other types of dystonia also exist and some respond relatively well to Botox, such as “oromandibular dystonia.”

“Blepharospasm,” a condition that causes involuntary contraction of the eyelid muscles, leading to involuntary closure of the eyelids. This can sometimes appear as blinking and may require regular Botox injections (every three months) to treat this condition. Botox injections should be carefully administered by a neurologist or neurologist to minimize the risk of eyelid drooping.

“Hemifacial spasm” is a condition that causes involuntary contraction of the facial muscles, leading to abnormal movements on one side of the face. Botox injections are also used to treat this condition, and again, these injections should be carefully administered by a neurologist or neurologist to minimize side effects such as eyelid drooping and asymmetrical movements of the mouth.

“Cervical dystonia” or “torticollis” is a condition that causes involuntary contraction of the neck muscles, causing the neck to tilt in one direction and sometimes tremble. This condition can cause serious difficulties for the person in terms of appearance and function, and can sometimes lead to neck pain. Botox injections can be used to control cervical dystonia and, again, should be administered precisely by a neurologist or neurologist so that side effects such as neck tilt and swallowing difficulties are minimized.

In all these cases, Botox injections can help manage the disease, which can be controlled by a neurologist or neurologist.

Effects of Botulinum Toxin (Botox) Injection on Fistula Treatment

Fistula is a disease that seriously affects the digestive tract. The stomach is closed by a ring of muscle called the lower esophageal sphincter, which controls the passage of food through the larynx. If a person has fistula disease, the sphincter does not open after eating or after eating, causing food to back up into the stomach. Fistula can occur for different reasons and it can be difficult to find a specific cause. It may be genetic, or it may be the result of a disease related to the immune system. Usually, doctors treat fistula disease with a surgical procedure, but in some cases, if surgery is not enough, doctors may use botulinum toxin (Botox) to relax the sphincter. Botox is injected endoscopically into the sphincter.

Effects of botulinum toxin (Botox) injection on hemorrhoid treatment

Although there are different methods available to treat hemorrhoids, one treatment option that can provide temporary relief is Botox injections. This method may offer an option that can quickly relieve the patient’s pain, but it provides temporary relief. Hemorrhoids are an uncomfortable condition in which cracks appear in the skin in the anus area. This condition occurs as a result of reduced blood flow to this area due to excessive pressure and is often associated with pain and bleeding, so may require immediate treatment. The simplest solution is to make lifestyle changes and use topical hemorrhoid cream, but if these simple measures do not work, it may be necessary to resort to other methods such as surgery or laser for a permanent solution. A temporary and easy treatment option for hemorrhoids is Botox injections.

However, it should be noted that the effects of Botox injections in the treatment of hemorrhoids are temporarily limited and can only alleviate the disease for 3 to 6 months. In this method, Botox or botulinum toxin is injected into the muscles associated with hemorrhoids and paralyzes them, reducing their function. This way, the hemorrhoid patient will not feel pain. Also, no unnecessary pressure is put on the muscles, making Botox effective in treating hemorrhoids. However, if a person has developed fistula mainly due to hemorrhoids, he or she should not expect that Botox injections will provide a definitive cure, because in this case the fistula may tend to relapse again after the effects of Botox have subsided. Therefore, one should act quickly to treat the underlying disease. This temporary treatment method may not be effective in advanced cases of hemorrhoids, as it requires repeated injections and side effects. It is important to consult with a proctologist before resorting to Botox injections for the treatment of hemorrhoids.

Effects of Botox Injection on Bladder Treatment and Urinary Incontinence

Botulinum toxin (Botox) injection, a treatment option that has been used for years and has effective results, is among the methods used for bladder treatment. All treatment methods, including surgical intervention and medication, have proven their effectiveness. However, each treatment method is selected according to the patient’s specific condition, which will ensure the best results.

The main topic we will focus on in this article is the effects of Botox injection into the bladder. Botox is one of the substances that, when injected into certain areas, has the ability to reduce the contraction of the muscles in that area. Therefore, when Botox is injected into the bladder, all the muscles in this area lose their ability to contract and the muscles relax. This creates more space inside the bladder and helps it hold more urine. As a result, problems with sudden urinary incontinence and nighttime trips to the toilet are reduced. If this treatment method does not respond, surgical intervention may be needed to address the urinary incontinence problem.

Botox injection has been one of the most effective methods used to reduce the symptoms of urinary incontinence. In order to inject Botox into the bladder, first local anesthesia is used to numb the bladder locally with a catheter, then an endoscope is inserted into the urethra and Botox is injected into the bladder muscles using a very small needle. Most patients can tolerate this procedure easily and the recovery period is short, so patients can return home immediately. The effect of this treatment method is relatively long-term, lasting about six to nine months, and people can enjoy the long-term benefits of this treatment method for a long time.

However, the use of Botox injections in bladder treatment should be performed by professionals who specialize in this field. This is important to ensure that the treatment results are successful.

Botox beauty treatments are divided into two main categories:
1. Botox applied to the upper part of the face.
2. Botox applied to the middle and lower areas of the face, neck and jaw line

Botox Applied to Upper Face

Botox applied to the upper face area is a frequently preferred treatment method to reduce or prevent wrinkles. There are various wrinkles in this area, such as forehead lines, lines between the eyebrows, wrinkles around the eyes and lines on the nose.

Forehead lines are usually reduced when treated with Botox, but this treatment is only capable of reducing the depth of deep wrinkles. If these wrinkles are deep, a 30% to 40% reduction in the depth and intensity of facial wrinkles can be achieved. However, in such cases, side effects such as drooping eyebrows and swelling of the upper eyelid may occur.

Forehead lines near the eyebrows can be more challenging to treat. Botox applications in these areas should be done carefully.

Sagging skin of the eyelids, medically called “blepharoptosis”, can cause swelling of the upper eyelids when Botox is applied. This swelling is caused by paralysis of the muscles of the forehead area, and the contraction of the muscles can affect vascular drainage, thus leading to swelling after Botox administration. However, this swelling will decrease over time.

The so-called crow’s feet lines are formed as a result of the aging process and it is recommended to treat these lines with Botox before they spread to the lower facial area.

However, the effect of Botox on crow’s feet may be more short-lived. This means that high doses of Botox cannot be injected because the muscles in these areas are quite thin, and too much Botox injection can alter the condition of the eyes and lead to vision problems such as dry eyes.

Lines on the forehead can also be treated with Botox, as can wrinkles on the forehead. This treatment is a common option for individuals looking to alleviate the signs of aging.

Botox Procedure for the Mid and Lower Facial Areas

The Botox procedure applied to the middle and lower facial areas may not be suitable for everyone and should be performed by neurologists or doctors with relevant training who are familiar with nerve anatomy and muscle structure. For example, Botox injection can be used to correct the condition known as “Gummy Show”, where the gums are visible when you smile, but it is more appropriate for such applications to be performed by neurologists or doctors with relevant training.

“Gummy Show” means that the gums become visible when a person smiles. This may be corrected for aesthetic purposes.

In addition, Botox can be used to correct and reduce wrinkles around the lips and chin area. These lines appear with the aging process. Doctors should avoid using excessive doses of Botox in these areas, as injecting too much Botox into these areas can lead to speech and eating difficulties.

Neck lines are another issue that should be corrected with Botox. This application is done to improve the aesthetic appearance of the neck area.

Other beauty applications of Botox include “Nefertiti”, where the chin muscle is called “masseter” and is used to correct the shape of the neck area. Injecting Botox into the chin muscle can cause the muscle to atrophy over time, turning a square-shaped chin into a heart-shaped chin. Because of this, you can feel a slight protrusion at the end of the chin.

The effect of Botox is not permanent and should be renewed approximately every three to four months, depending on the brand used. When used for facial modeling purposes, more Botox may be needed than when used to remove wrinkles and lines. Despite this, this method is a more economical option than other options.
