BTX/ Neurotoxin

What is BTX/ Neurotoxin?

Botulinum Toxin Type A, also known as “BTX” or “neurotoxin”, is a purified protein that works by temporarily relaxing targeted muscles. It blocks the transmission of the nerve impulse to the muscle, thereby reducing over-activity of certain muscle groups, leading to smoother, wrinkle-free skin.

Astria Medical Aesthetics: How BTX/Neurotoxin works

How do neurotoxins/BTX work?

When injected, BTX blocks the signal from nerves to the muscles. This temporary relaxation of the muscles softens dynamic wrinkles caused by facial expression.

BTX/Neurotoxins work mainly on dynamic wrinkles and less on static wrinkles (wrinkles present without expression).

Here at Astria, a thorough assessment will be done prior, ensuring that the concern you have is suitable to be treated by neurotoxins.

Downtime

Undergoing BTX has minimal downtime. You may experience slight redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site, typically resolving within 1-2 days.

Treatment Interval

The effects of botulinum toxin typically last for 4-6 months. The muscles gradually regain function as the botulinum toxin wears off, and repeat injections are necessary to maintain the desired results.
