Botox treatments for your beauty
Say goodbye to annoying expression lines!
For many, they are an annoying part of ageing: small wrinkles and expression lines. A botox treatment is often the only remedy. The injected botulinum toxin paralyses the muscles, making the skin look smooth and supple again.
What is botox treatment?
Botox, also known as botulinum toxin, is a neurotoxin that paralises the muscles. While this toxin can be lethal in high doses, it's commonly used in small doses for cosmetic purposes. Botox treatment involves injecting the botulinum toxin directly into the muscles with the help of a syringe. The muscles are thus paralysed and prevented from contracting for a certain amount of time. This reduces the appearance of expression lines and guarantes smooth and supple skin. Both the correct dosage and precise application are crucial for the success of the treatment. The effects of botox start just a couple of days after the treatments and last about three to six months.
Botox: areas of application
Botox is most commonly used to treat facial wrinkles. In this area, it softens expression lines of the forehead, crow's feet next to the eyes, dark circles under the eyes, wrinkles between the eyebrows (also known as frown lines), as well as wrinkles on the cheeks, corners of the mouth, lips, chin, or neck. It combats wrinkles caused by the loss of elasticity of the skin. Botox is also used to treat certain neurological disorders such as movement disorders and eyelid spasms as well as problems related to excessive sweating. It also helps with migraines and different types of tremor and spasms.
