Botox
Botox is botulinum toxin type A, specifically On abotulinumtoxin A, which is injected into the facial muscles to temporarily relax the muscle. It works by temporarily blocking nerve signals and muscle contractions. This improves the appearance of wrinkles. It can also slow the formation of new lines by preventing contraction of facial muscles
Where is botox injected ?
] Cosmetically, Botox is used in the following areas:
The forehead to treat the horizontal lines that form when you look up.
The area between the eyebrows (glabellar region), to treat the vertical lines formed when you frown.
Around the eyes, to treat the lines (commonly known as crow’s feet) that appear when you smile.
How long does this last ?
The effect of Botox wears off after about 4-5 months. After that, if you wish you can go for repeat treatment to maintain the look.
Muscles Relaxant, Isn't it dangerous ?
Not at all! Botox Cosmetic is an FDA approved treatment for treatment of dynamic wrinkles on the face that are caused due to expressions made after contraction of specific facial muscles. These muscles get relaxed due to the botox and so, the wrinkle disappears. Moreover, very tiny amounts are used and these do not spread to anywhere beyond the target muscle. It will never go into your blood stream and so there are no serious side effects at all.
But isn't is expensive ?
Botox is surprisingly affordable! If you analyze the cost – benefit ratio of this simple procedure that pushes back years off your look, it really is worth it.
