WHAT IS Botox Anti-Wrinkle Injections?
A powerful neurotoxin which causes temporary muscle relaxation when injected into a muscle. It is used cosmetically to relax muscles of facial expression, therefore softening overlying expression lines or wrinkles. It is FDA approved for the treatment of frown lines, crow’s feet and horizontal forehead lines as it is a safe, effective, fast and relatively painless treatment.
WHO CAN BENEFIT?
This treatment will benefit any patient who is noticing that their expression lines are present at rest, making them look cross or stressed or those who report a heavy brow. It can also successfully be used to minimise lines above the lip; counter the down turning of the mouth; minimise the appearance of large pores; or to significantly prevent underarm sweating and trapezius muscle spasms.
The average age is from 30 years of age, for both women and men.
WHAT DOES IT ENTAIL
We provide a two-step treatment – we treat the patient on day 1 followed by a top-up treatment 14 days later if required. It takes approximately 30 minutes. If the patient is nervous or afraid of needles we can apply cream for 30 minutes before the injections to make the treatment as comfortable as possible.
Afterwards, there is mild redness and swelling at the site of injections which settles after half an hour so there is no downtime and the patient can resume normal daily activities. It is advisable not to do any strenuous exercise for the rest of that day and to avoid alcohol and flying for a minimum of 24 hours.
As there is no antidote less is more.
The effects last approximately 3 to 6 months and they are cumulative, that is, treatment on treatment the results are better and better.
