**[Boto](https://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-procedures/botox/about/pac-20384658)[x Injection](https://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-procedures/botox/about/pac-20384658)**
is a common beauty treatment nowadays. This procedure consists in injecting Botox
into specific parts of the face to tighten up the skin, thus, limiting the aging
effect of the cells.

Botox or Botulinum Toxin is a neurotoxic protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium
botulinum, this substance prevents the release of acetylcholine neurotransmitter
from the axon endings at the neuromuscular junction and thus causes flaccid paralysis.

The [plastic surgeon](https://sifsof.com/product-category/doctor-specialties/plastic-surgeon/)
can use SIFSOF [Vein Finders](https://sifsof.com/product-category/vein-finder-probe/)
in the Botox injection procedure.

While injectables require administration into the skin, the injected substance isn’t
meant to enter the vascular system, so the Vein Finder can come in handy in helping
dermatologists to avoid vein access in this treatment.

[SIFVEIN-4.2](https://sifsof.com/product/handheld-infrared-vein-finder-sifvein-4-2/)
vein detector gives the veins a contrasted color on the projection on the skin or
the screen of the device, assisting the plastic surgeon or the dermatologist in 
detecting the appropriate areas to operate on, while avoiding venous injections.

This way, the healthcare taker assures the success of this procedure, as well as
limiting the number of failed needle attempts and patient dissatisfaction rates.
