• “Botox Cosmetic is FDA-approved for vertical neck bands, and we're injecting it into the platysma muscle. These are the bands you see when you grind your teeth or stress your neck, and the effect is that it's going to weaken those muscles and make you have a smoother neck.”

• “Botox relaxes the muscles by blocking the receptors that are telling it to tighten and contract, thereby releasing tension and pain. It helps reduce grinding at night, so you wake up with a more relaxed jaw area.”

• “Botox (botulinum toxin type A) works by temporarily blocking the release of acetylcholine from the nerve endings that stimulate the sweat glands. Without that chemical signal, the sweat glands stop producing sweat in the treated area.”

• “All of these medications should be monitored and prescribed in a medical situation where the doctor or the clinic is partnering with the patient on a complete plan including "monitoring their lab [work], their vital signs, their response". "It's really the self-prescribing and unknown usage that is leading to a lot of the problems."”
