Myobloc

Myobloc, also known as botulinum toxin type B, is a medical treatment that uses a purified form of a toxin to temporarily relax muscle activity. It is commonly used to treat conditions involving excessive muscle contractions, such as certain neck spasms, or for reducing the appearance of wrinkles by smoothing the skin. The injections work by blocking nerve signals to specific muscles, reducing their activity for several months. Myobloc is administered by a healthcare professional and can provide relief from muscle-related issues or cosmetic improvements without surgery.
