Have you noticed fine lines and wrinkles appearing around your eyes, forehead, and brows? These expression lines form where facial muscles crease your skin. Botox® smooths these lines by relaxing the facial muscles, giving you a refreshed, youthful look. This injectable treatment fits into the busiest schedules, making it one of the most popular aesthetic treatments worldwide.
What is Botox® (Botulinum Toxin)?
Botox® is an injectable neuromodulator, also known as a neurotoxin. It uses a compound called botulinum toxin that works by affecting the communication between facial nerves and muscles. When used in tiny amounts, Botox® safely targets the muscles causing your lines and relaxes them so you can enjoy a bright, refreshed look.
How Does Botox® Work?
When injected, Botox® travels to the targeted facial nerves that cause your lines and wrinkles. It does not harm these nerves in any way. Instead, it tells them to stop sending signals to the facial muscles. Because it only targets one specific muscle group, Botox® allows you to relax lines and wrinkles while maintaining normal facial expressions.
What to Expect After Botox®
Your Botox® injections will take as little as fifteen minutes, and you can return to most of your usual activities immediately. You should follow these instructions for at least three hours after treatment:
- Avoid strenuous exercise
- Do not rub or massage your face
- Avoid bending over
- Do not lie down
You can resume all your usual activities after three to four hours. After this time, Botox® will not move from its proper location. It will still take several days to reach the facial nerves and take action. Ask your Juvanew Medspa injector first if you plan to have another facial treatment within a few days of getting Botox®.
You may notice minor redness, bruising, or swelling in the injection area. These effects usually fade within a few days. Most people find that a Botox® appointment can be squeezed into their active schedules no matter how busy they are.
How Long Do Botox® Results Last?
You can start seeing Botox® results within two or three days. Full results can take ten days to develop. Botox® lasts about four months for most people, especially if they are new to treatment. Those who have received several Botox® treatments can see results lasting up to six months. Each person’s response is different, so we will help you develop a treatment schedule that works for you.
Am I a Good Candidate for Botox®?
Botox® has been used for decades in medical and aesthetic fields. Its safety and effectiveness make it useful for a wide range of purposes. Most healthy adults are good candidates for Botox®. Candidates may be younger individuals seeking wrinkle prevention or older people who want to relax lines and creases.
