Botox – Anti Wrinkle Treatment
Though you may not realize this, your face is constantly at work. Smiling, laughing crying or frowning – they take their toll. Those lines that appear when you laugh are the result of muscular movement and are called “dynamic wrinkles”. Over time, our skin loses elasticity and the “dynamic wrinkles” through repetition become etched into the skin.
What Botox can do for you
The overall aesthetic effect is to refresh, rejuvenate and enhance natural beauty. Botox is an anti wrinkle treatment can help take away those stress lines which can make you look angry even when you aren’t. Botox is a purified protein that relaxes facial muscles, causing frown lines and crow’s feet to fade and even disappear. It can also cure excessive sweating!
The procedure
Using a tiny needle, a few drops of Botox are injected into the muscle responsible for causing the line or wrinkle. As a result, the wrinkle or line diminish dramatically and may disappear completely – creating a smoothened, rejuvenated and more youthful appearance.
Botox can also be used for:
– Botox lift: Depending on your doctor’s assessment, a series of injections can be administered to deep and/or superficial facial muscles – giving a non-surgical “lift” to the face and neck, elevating the eyebrows and giving you a younger, refreshed appearance. The effect can last for four months.
– Facial contouring: Botox is used to shape and slim the face. A few carefully placed Botox injections can give you a slim and feminine jawline so the face develops an oval contour.
– Skin rejuvenation: The injection of Botox into superficial layers under the skin provides multiple benefits. Facial pores are reduced in size, improving skin texture and giving a matte complexion.
– Sweat control: Excessive sweating is a problem for some people. It is caused by over-active sweat glands and can be controlled by Botox injections into the underarms. The effect is prompt and can last for several months.
– Facial balancing: This is a procedure used by doctors to overcome the problem of asymmetry, in which facial features are not balanced. Botox can restore facial aesthetic balance and enhance your appearance.
Is it painful?
Doctors take steps to minimize discomfort with all Botox procedures. For some, it may be painless but for others, there may be a mild discomfort – like the feeling of an ant bite.
Results
Improvement can be seen within days and on average, lasts about four months. The benefits of Botox are subtle and enhance, rather than change your natural appearance. Botox is usually a 10 minute procedure after which you can go back to work or resume your social activities. It’s commonly called a “lunchtime procedure”.
