The result is a completely natural look, years rolled back, a refreshed youthful expression that makes you happy with yourself, regardless of the age you will be proud of, and not hide them.
And now we answer all the questions and doubts so that you know everything about Botox before you schedule the treatment.
What is Botox?
Botox comes from Botulinum toxin A and Botulinum toxin B , which are most often used in both aesthetic and other types of medicine, because apart from wrinkles, Botox is used in various neurological diseases, and only some of them are multiple sclerosis or migraine. It is a drug of natural origin that is produced from a purified neurotoxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum (botulinum toxin). Although it is basically a poisonous substance, it is used in medicine as completely purified, processed and in a very low concentration, which makes it completely safe, and this is proven not only by theory, but also by practice.
what does the treatment look like?
To make the treatment completely painless, a local anesthetic cream is applied to the skin. Then, with very thin needles, botox is injected under the skin. The entire treatment takes only a few minutes. At the end of the treatment, the patient can return to his daily duties.
How does botox work?
Botox works by injecting it into precisely defined places under the surface layer of the skin, preventing excessive contraction of muscle movements that are responsible for the formation of wrinkles. Deep wrinkles are significantly filled, and by blocking the movement of the muscles, the appearance of new wrinkles is prevented.
The first effects are visible after 4 to 6 days , because then the excessive activity of the muscles that break and “cut” the skin, creating wrinkles, is reduced. By reducing the activity of these muscles, the skin tightens and wrinkles disappear, and the final results appear after 10 to 14 days.
Indications
- When vertical furrows and wrinkles appear on the forehead , in the area between the eyebrows and around the eyes;
- To remove vertical wrinkles around the lips (so-called smoker’s wrinkles, barcode wrinkles);
- People who have pronounced mimicry of the upper third of the face and facial wrinkles
- For rejuvenating the skin of the neck and décolletage;
- For lifting eyebrows and eyelids (up to 2 mm can be lifted);
- In case of asymmetry of the eyelids and eyebrows;
- To raise the tip of the nose;
- With visible gums – gummy smile;
- For narrowing the face when it has a pronounced square shape (masseter botox);
- To lower the raised chin;
- In people who suffer from excessive sweating – hyperhidrosis of the palms, feet or armpits
Botox – what are the results?
Deeper wrinkles on the forehead that appear as a result of excessive facial expressions and aging, as well as wrinkles between the eyebrows and around the eyes disappear from the face. Since the contraction of the facial muscles is prevented, the formation of new wrinkles is not possible in the places where Botox was injected. The result is a rejuvenated look and tight facial skin.
Bearing in mind that Botox paralyzes the sweat glands of the treated area, they will sweat less (eg the forehead, and it is also used for the armpits, hands and feet).
Botox also improves circulation in the treated areas, so after applying Botox, the face becomes radiant, fresh and acquires a natural glow.
How long does botox last?
The effect of botox lasts from 4 to 6 months. When botox treatments are stopped, its effect stops, and the skin continues to age completely normally without any consequences.
Aftercare
After the treatment, you can return to your daily activities, taking into account the following recommendations:
- Do not touch the injection sites for 4 hours after treatment and avoid lying down
- 24 hours after the treatment – without strenuous exercises, make-up, alcohol.
- 48 hours – without epilation, massage, sauna.
- 2 weeks must pass between Botox treatment and other antiaging and aesthetic procedures, except in the case of treating other areas of the face with hyaluronic fillers.
What is botox three areas?
Botox three areas is a treatment that involves injecting Botox into three areas of the upper third of the face: the forehead to remove wrinkles, the glabella – the part of the forehead between the eyebrows, which removes the frown line, and the eye area to remove wrinkles around the eyes. Each of the mentioned areas represents 1 area. When botox is injected into 2 areas, e.g. glabella and forehead are then 2 areas, when we treat all 3 it makes 3 areas.
It is important to know:
If you want to remove wrinkles from the forehead, and you have somewhat drooping eyelids and eyebrows, then the glabella must also be treated. The reason is simple. The function of the frontalis muscle is to raise the eyebrows. When that muscle is “relaxed” with Botox, it is no longer able to lift the bodye eyebrows so that they look extra lowered. That is why it is necessary to apply Botox in the glabella area and around the eyebrows, for an open and rested look around the eyes. In other words, to remove wrinkles from the forehead, in most cases, it will be necessary to treat both the glabella and the area around the eyebrows. Altogether it will be 2 areas and sometimes 3, depending on your anatomy and your muscles of the upper third of the face.
BOTOX – THE MOST FREQUENT QUESTIONS
It is known that in our people it is said that “prevention is better than cure”, so this principle is not missing even when it comes to Botox treatment.
As each skin ages differently, the first wrinkles appear at a different time, with some earlier, after 25 years, while the happier group is a bit older, so after 30 the first signs of aging are visible. It is definitely recommended to consult with a dermatologist who has extensive experience, who will tell you with certainty whether you can start with small amounts of Botox or postpone this treatment for another year.
Baby botox (baby botox) involves injecting minimal doses of botox in the usual places, whereby facial expressions are maintained but frown lines and smile lines are reduced. It can be done on people who do not have pronounced deep wrinkles and strong facial expressions. The duration is slightly shorter than with usual doses of Botox.
Micro or mesobotox is a special treatment that achieves a slight tightening of the facial skin, while at the same time affecting the narrowing of pores and regulating the production of excess sebum in oily and problematic skin. And the effects of this treatment are:
- Balanced work of sebaceous and sweat glands
- Smoothing fine lines and wrinkles
- Reduction of excess shine in oily skin
- Narrowing of enlarged pores
- The radiance and glow of the skin is restored
- The complexion is without excess shine, with a matte effect
The treatment is performed by injecting Botox along and below the jawline, which blocks the muscle that runs from the face, through the neck, and up to the upper chest.
After this treatment, you can go back to wearing a V or décolletage look like you did a few years back.
Women who have a wider lower jaw and developed masseteric muscles, which are the muscles for chewing, can reshape the lower part of the face with Botox. By injecting Botox into the masseter muscle, its size gradually decreases and the lower part of the face becomes narrower.
The result is a narrower jawline that makes the face look softer, gentler and significantly thinner, while the cheekbones are highlighted, resulting in a naturally contoured face that makes you forget about bronzers, brushes, powders and highlighters.
Aging brings us wrinkles, sagging skin, but also a drooping nose, which contributes to an older appearance of the face due to years of drooping. Sometimes this also happens in younger patients due to excessive work of the muscles that lower the nose down when speaking. Botox injections solve this problem quickly and effectively.
Botox is carefully applied to the muscle of the nose and works by blocking the contraction of the muscle that pulls the nose down when speaking or laughing. Very often this treatment is combined with the treatment of hyaluronic fillers so that the non-surgical remodeling of the nose is perfect.
Botox is used for aesthetic purposes in extremely small doses, much smaller than those used for medical purposes, but in no case is it dangerous to health, therefore it is completely safe to use.
If an unprofessional person performs the treatment and botox is injected into inappropriate points that do not require treatment, the so-called “plastic” and “frozen” expression of the face may occur, but also other side effects such as asymmetry, drooping eyelids or weakness of the surrounding muscles.
We move on to the lower part of the face and that’s where hyaluronic enters the scene, which restores the skin’s lost volume. It is very important to carefully create harmony between the upper and lower part of the face so that one part does not appear to be 10 years younger than the other, but so that a naturally rejuvenated look is represented on the whole face.
Unwanted reactions are very rare, but as is the case with other facial treatments, they are possible, given that each skin type is different, so the reaction to the treatments is the same. After the treatment, a headache or slight nausea may occur, which passes within two days. In case of oversensitive skin, bruises are possible at the injection site, which disappear within 3 to 5 days.
Not. The use of Botox is not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Botox correction is included in the price, and it must be done 10 to 14 days after the treatment. After that period, we do not do the correction.
