\n Wrinkles \u2014 and depression \u2014 be gone.<\/p>\n

Botox isn\u2019t just used for smoothing signs of aging. The injection, which is derived from a bacterial toxin, also has a host of known medical uses including easing migraines, muscle spasms, excessive sweating and, according to a new study, potentially lessening depression.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor years, clinicians have observed that Botox injected for cosmetic reasons seems to ease depression for their patients,\u201d said lead author Ruben Abagyan in a press release for the study, published Thursday in the journal Scientific Reports.<\/p>\n

Previously, it was believed this was due to a psychological side effect from Botox reducing the app<\/a>earance of sadness, but Abagyan and his team found that the drug lessened depression even when it wasn\u2019t used on the face.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been thought that easing severe frown lines in forehead region disrupts a feedback loop that reinforces negative emotions. But we\u2019ve found here that the mechanism may be more complex, because it doesn\u2019t really matter where the Botox is injected,\u201d Abagyan, who is also a professor of pharmacy, said.<\/p>\n

To determine this, researchers mined over 13 million reports in the Food and Drug Administration\u2019s Adverse Effect Reporting System database to locate nearly 40,000 reports of Botox treatment in individuals who were not taking antidepressants. Botox recipients, compared to those who received different treatments for the same issue, reported depression significantly less, researchers found.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis finding is exciting because it supports a new treatment to affect mood and fight depression, one of the common and dangerous mental illnesses \u2014 and it\u2019s based on a very large body of statistical data, rather than limited-scale observations,\u201d said FDA research fellow and study co-author Tigran Makunts.<\/p>\n

More research is needed to confirm why Botox works as an antidepressant, but researchers currently hypothesize that either the injection interacts with mood-determining regions of the central nervous system or that it treats chronic conditions which were contributing to depression, thus indirectly relieving the depression by way of relieving the condition causing it.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
