BOTOX

Botox Cosmetic Treatment

 

We all look for the best solutions to maintain the beauty of the skin. A wrinkled or creased skin is something we want to turn into flawless smooth skin. In this modern time there are different beauty or cosmetic treatments that are offering these services. Some of them are invasive and some are non invasive. The wrinkles that start to appear on our skin after years of muscle activity or due to the sun damage can now be corrected. Botox is one of the best known treatments for these unwanted wrinkles.

The botox injections are used to treat the dynamic wrinkles. The dynamic wrinkles are formed due to the active movement of the muscles. The botox is a powerful protein. Botox is a drug made from the neurotoxin, Botulinum toxin. It is injected into the creased skin and the muscles that are forming crease relax and stop forming the creases. It has been more than two decades that botox has been used for treating the wrinkle condition. It has been more than millions of patients that have been treated successfully with safe and desirable result. Besides the cosmetic purpose this protein is also used for different other purposes like the medical conditions.

The botox injection are injected on the target muscles which are producing dynamic wrinkles and relaxed. However the botox treatment is a temporary treatment. Once the botox wears off the movement of the relaxed muscle comes back. It takes on an average 3 to 5 months for the botox to wear off. For getting the botox treatment, it is always recommended by the doctors to only get the treatment done by a board certified physician or plastic surgeon. There are different beauty and cosmetic salons that also provide these services, but it is risky to get the treatment done by some inexperienced service provider. 

Botox injections for the cosmetic purposes are given on the facial region. Different facial wrinkles that can be relaxed include the frown lines, crow's feet, upper lip vertical lines or the smoker's lines can be treated using the botox. You should consult your physician prior to the treatment so that you can understand how it works and what all to expect from the treatment. As botox relaxes the muscle, it freezes the expression; so it is always recommended to go for sufficient units of botox to treat the wrinkles in order to keep the facial look natural.

The botox is helpful in correcting the high arched brows. There are some of the side effects that are related to the botox treatment. There is a possibility that after the treatment the patient suffers from eye lid drooping or brow drooping when forehead muscle is injected. It is because sometimes the botox that is targeted to relax the frown muscles also relax the muscles that help in holding the brow or eyelid on its place. Other than this, there can be some rare side effects like, bruising, swelling or headache. But all the side effects are temporary and eventually subside. To keep the wrinkles of the active muscles at bay it is best to get the botox on those muscles at regular intervals.
