Botox injections are injections that contain a neurotoxin that relaxes the muscle and prevents it from moving by preventing nerve impulses from reaching the muscle. Botox injections have several cosmetic and medical benefits, the most common of which is its use to reduce skin wrinkles, and it is also used for several medical conditions such as lazy eye, hyperactivity Bladder, sweating, neck pain, migraine prevention and many other medical conditions.
How Botox injections work?
Botox injections contain a neurotoxin. Neurotoxins target the nervous system. These neurotoxins disrupt the transmission of nerve signals between neurons and muscles that stimulate muscle contraction. Through this method, neurotoxins will cause temporary muscle paralysis.
Muscle contraction needs a chemical called acetylcholine, neurons work to deliver acetylcholine to muscles, acetylcholine binds to receptors on muscle cells and causes cells to contract or shorten.
The neurotoxin works to block this process, causing muscle paralysis. In this way, the muscles are less.

What is a lip flip?
How does A Lip Flip work?
Your healthcare provider performs botulinum toxin injections in the area of the corners of your mouth (oral angles) and at the border of your lips (vermilion border).
The muscles around your upper lip are affected by the botulinum toxin, causing them to relax. This release of tension in the muscles causes the upper lip to bulge slightly and rise slightly upward, giving it the appearance of being larger than usual.
