Botulinum therapy
Botulinum therapy - beauty injections in modern cosmetology
Botulinum therapy, often known as Botox injections, has several benefits:
- Wrinkle reduction: Botulinum toxin therapy helps reduce wrinkles and maintain a younger-looking skin, especially on the face.
- Minimally invasive: This procedure does not require surgery, injections are usually performed in cosmetic clinics.
- Fast effect: The effect of botulinum therapy usually becomes noticeable within a few days after the procedure.
- Minimal restrictions: After the procedure, patients can usually return to their daily activities, minimizing the recovery period.
- Popularity and trust: Botox is one of the most popular cosmetic treatments and is trusted by many patients and doctors.
However, it is important to consult a doctor before undergoing this procedure, as it may have its limitations and side effects.
Provided that the procedure is performed professionally and according to the individual needs of each patient, botulinum therapy can be a great way to maintain the beauty and health of the skin.
Correction and prevention of facial wrinkles
The drug blocks the transmission of nerve impulses from neurons to muscles, which allows you to relax and temporarily immobilize facial muscles. This prevents the formation of new wrinkles and helps smooth out existing ones (depending on their depth). The first results of the drug can be seen 3-4 days after the procedure, and the maximum effect is achieved on the 10-14th day and lasts about 4-6 months. If necessary, the correction is performed approximately 2 weeks after the procedure.
There are no clear age restrictions for starting botulinum therapy. However, cosmetologists recommend resorting to this procedure after the appearance of the first facial wrinkles. For some, this may happen as early as 18-20 years old, while others may not need injections even after 30.
The main indications for botulinum therapy:
- • Mimic wrinkles on the forehead;
- • “crow's feet” around the eyes;
- • Initial signs of drooping eyelids;
- • Wrinkles on the neck;
- • Wrinkles around the mouth;
- • Wrinkles on the nose, between the eyebrows and under the chin;
- • Loss of a clear facial shape.
The advantage of botulinum therapy is that it does not disrupt the nervous system and does not damage the nerves, providing a quick result without long-term rehabilitation. Botulinum toxin type A provides relaxation of facial muscles, which allows the skin to gradually smooth out. The drug is administered in minimal doses, acts locally and does not affect the entire body. After 4-6 months, the effect of the drug disappears, and neuromuscular conduction is fully restored, so there is no addiction to injections.
