Botox is a pharmaceutical injectable usually used on the face, that is made from the botulinium toxin. When injected, it temporarily paralyzes muscle activity. This in turn reduces the appearance of” laugh lines” on the face, that run from the nose to the mouth, and “forehead furrows”, the horizontal crease in the forehead formed by moving the eyebrows. Other moderate to deep lines or wrinkles may be treated with Botox as well.
Typically safe, these injections have been used for many years in the anti-aging war. The most common side effects are swelling or bruising at the site of the injection, headache or flu-like symptoms. The relaxing effect may last from four to six months, and with repeated injections, the muscles may relax to a degree on their own.
This is a simple in-office procedure with minimal downtime. The results can typically be noticed in 24 to 48 hours after the procedure. For a quick lift without the surgery, Botox injections may be the answer.
