Copyedit, some unusual grammar used, most of the article has swapped around to make it more understandable, and some information has been added.
A '''toxin''' is quite often a naturally occurring byproduct of many bacterial species, which, when it interacts with tissue, will often cause harm through interference with basic cell mechanisms, leading to cell death, and eventually, if the bacterial growth is not checked, massive tissue damage, or even death. Botulism is one such disease caused by bacterial toxins, though recently a method of controlled injections has been used to aid in cosmetic surgery, profiting from the paralyzing nature of the toxins.
A '''toxin''' is, quite often, a naturally occurring byproduct of many bacterial species that causes harm too living tissue, through interference with basic cell mechanisms, leading to cell death, and if unchecked, massive tissue damage, or even death. [[Botulism]] is one such disease caused by bacterial toxins, though recently a method of controlled injectioned of a non-lethal dose has been used to aid in cosmetic surgery, by tighetening, and firming the skin. Even from paralyzing toxins, we can find a useful purpose, and reason for it to be here.
