Botox
Botox is a protein extracted from the Botulinum toxin of Clostridium botulinum. It is a drug that paralyzes the muscles. For aesthetic requirements, appropriate small doses of the toxin can reduce wrinkles and fine lines. It’s been helpful in the treatment of some medical conditions too.
Botox works by blocking the exchange of chemical signals between neurons that cause muscles to contract. The common application of botox is to relax the facial muscles that generate creases in the forehead and around the eyes for a short period. Botox injections are also used to treat diseases that impair the body’s operation ability. The FDA approved uses of botox in certain medical conditions are, overactive bladder, excessive underarm sweating, chronic migraines, lower limb spasticity.
- Before the process, you may need to remove all of your makeup and cleanse the treatment area.
- In addition, to lessen the chance of bruising, you may need to forgo blood-thinning medications like aspirin.
- Wait for one day before getting any more face treatments. Then, wait at least a day before resuming your regular skincare regimen. It gives the body enough time to adjust to the medical aesthetics procedure.
- After a Botox treatment, do not lie down to avoid putting pressure on the treated areas and prevent the area from being accidentally rubbed.
- If necessary, return for touch-ups. Schedule a follow-up appointment if extra Botox injections are required two weeks following the initial Botox treatment.
