Botox (botulinum toxin injection, usually referring to local injection of botulinum toxin type A) has a variety of uses in the medical and cosmetic fields. The following is a list of common uses, working principles, and precautions by field.
This BOTOX 100IU vial contains clostridium botulinum type A neurotoxin complex, 0.5 milligrams of Albumin (Human), and 0.9 milligrams of sodium chloride

Wrinkle Smoothing: Effective for dynamic wrinkles, commonly used for:
Glabellar lines (and "11" lines)
Forehead wrinkles (horizontal forehead lines)
Crow's feet (fine lines around the corners of the eyes)
Dynamic lines above the nasolabial folds
Chin/jawline enhancement (depending on region and physician experience): This relaxes the masseter muscles to achieve a narrower facial profile or alleviate contour issues associated with masseter hypertrophy.
Brow reshaping: Fine-tuning the injection site and dosage can affect the effect of brow lift or depress.
Short-term improvement of other expression lines, such as raised shoulders and horizontal neck lines, depends on the specific injection protocol.
Mechanism of action: Relaxes the contraction of the injected muscles, reducing the formation and deepening of dynamic wrinkles, but usually has limited effect on existing static deep wrinkles
Migraine Prevention: Injected periodically into specific muscles in the head/neck area to help reduce the frequency and severity of chronic migraine headaches.
Dystonia and Spasticity:
Muscle spasms in the upper and lower limbs (including those associated with cerebral palsy);
Sleep clenching (bruxism) and excessive tension in the masseter muscles.
Ophthalmological Uses:
Strabismus (dissociative strabismus) and certain eyelid spasms (blepharospasm).
Axillary Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Sweat Gland Secretion): Reduces sweating by inhibiting nerve signals to the muscles surrounding the sweat glands.
Other indications, such as neck muscle stiffness and muscle tension associated with muscle pain, require evaluation by a healthcare professional.
Evaluation and Planning: A qualified physician should conduct a face-to-face consultation to assess your anatomy, muscle activity level, previous treatment history, and contraindications.
Dosage and Site: Different dosages and injection sites are required for different applications. Incorrect injection site or dosage may result in side effects such as unnatural expressions and ptosis.
Effects and Duration: Effects typically appear gradually over a few days to a week or two, and typically last 3–6 months, depending on individual needs.
Possible Side Effects: Injection site pain, bruising, headache, temporary muscle weakness in the injection area, and occasional ptosis. Rarely, systemic reactions may occur.
Contraindications:
Allergy to botulinum toxin
Pregnancy/lactation
Active localized infection
Careful evaluation is recommended for those requiring extensive ophthalmic/facial muscle treatment.
