BOTOX is a trademarked brand name for botulinum toxin, a neurotoxic protein used for cosmetic and medical purposes. Originally developed for treating eye muscle disorders, it became famous for reducing facial wrinkles by temporarily paralyzing muscles.
BOTOX is a portmanteau of "BOTulinum TOXin." The name was trademarked by Allergan in 1989. "Botulinum" comes from Latin "botulus" meaning "sausage," because the bacteria was first identified in badly prepared sausages in 1895.
