Botox treatment is a widely acclaimed procedure to get rid of wrinkles and fine lines from our face and neck. If you want to remove the signs of aging like wrinkles and facial lines from your face then Botox treatment is an ideal solution that can give you desired results. Botox comprises a toxin created by the bacteria known as Clostridium botulinum. It is exactly the same toxin which is behind the life-threatening kind of food poisoning commonly known as botulism. Botox treatment should only be done by the best cosmetic surgeon like at GLOJAS.
Injections are used in Botox treatment to get the job done by paralyzing or weakening muscles or by obstructing specific nerves. The results usually remain for about three to twelve months, and it largely depends on what you are treating. The commonest side effects that can develop from Botox treatment are pain, swelling, or bruising in the area where injections have been applied.
These side effects go away with time. Some people can also develop headaches, flu-like signs and symptoms, and upset tummy. Injections which are used on the facial muscles can also result in short-term drooping eyelids. Generally, surgeons don’t recommend Botox treatment for women who are either pregnant or breastfeeding.
Botox works by blocking signals which are sent from nerves to the muscles. The injected muscles are unable to contract which makes the wrinkles and fine lines soften. Botox is mostly applied in the lines on forehead, fine lines which are round the eye (also known as crow’s feet), and frown lines. Wrinkles which occur due to sun damage and gravity might fail to respond to Botox treatment. Botox treatment can prove to be extremely useful to remove lines from neck, lips, chin and corner of the mouth.
Botox treatment will take only a few hours and isn’t going to involve any amount of local anesthesia. Botox is injected into certain muscles by using a fine needle which might cause a little discomfort. It normally takes around 3 to 5 days or even a week to fully show the impact. It’s strongly recommended by the surgeons that you should stop any type of alcohol consumption before undergoing Botox treatment. Avoid using aspirin and any type of anti-inflammatory drugs at least two weeks in advance of Botox treatment to minimize any chances of bruising.
The results obtained from Botox treatment will remain for at least 4 to 6 months. With time the movement in muscles returns which marks the return of wrinkles and fine lines. However, you can go for Botox treatment again to get wrinkles and fine lines removed.
