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”.
