Who can provide Botox treatments?
Qualified medical professionals(doctors, dentists, nurses)who have attended a recognised botox training course and have the correct medical insurance.
What is Botox™
Used safely for many years by opthalmologists to treat eyelid and eye muscle spasm, Botox™ is an approved medical protein which effects a process known as cosmetic denervation. Its effectiveness having been proven, it is now increasingly being used to reverse the signs of visible ageing.
What is Botox™ used for?
Dynamic Wrinkles are created by the contractions in our facial muscles. Over time, these leave us with frown lines, crow's feet and laughter lines. By blocking impulses from the nerves to our tiny facial muscles, temporarily relaxing them so that they don't contract, Botox™ softens the appearance of these lines. While the untreated muscles react in a normal way allowing facial expressions to be unaffected, the skin itself remains smooth and unwrinkled. The improvement can be surprisingly dramatic.
Botox™ is excellent treatment for the softening or removal of:
- frown lines
- crow's feet
- laughter lines
- forehead creases
How long does the Botox™ treatment take?
Each treatment takes approximately 30 minutes.
How long will the treatment last?
Botox results can vary from 3 to 6 months. There is however evidence to suggest that the muscles eventually retrain themselves so that less frequent treatments may be necessary over time.
In summary
Botox™ is administered through a tiny micro-needle so fine that there is very minimal discomfort. Treatment may be carried out immediately since no 'test patch' is required, and normal activities are usually resumed after the Botox treatment.
There is some evidence that some of those who suffer from migraine have, after receiving Botox™ treatment, experienced a vast improvement in their condition.
You should not fly for 2/3 days after Botox™ treament.
Always check to ensure your clinician is medically qualified and has received recognised botox training.
