Face the Facts
Botulinum toxin ‘A’ otherwise known by the trade name of Botox® has been used in cosmetic application to treat
glabellar lines amongst other conditions. This non invasive method eliminates the need of surgery and long post surgical recovery. Botox® through periodic injections assists in relaxing muscles that cause our unsightly wrinkles.
The injections should be administered by staff with medical training in a clinic where if, any adverse effects occur – immediate remedial action can be taken. Botox® injections do not show immediate results and may require up to 2 weeks to provide the desired effect. Depending on individual the treatments have to be repeated every 4 to 6 months but have been known to last as long as 8 months.
Possible complications of Botox® injections are pain, tenderness, bruising and temporary drooping around the injection site; however as noted they are temporary and heal within a short period of time.
More recently additional break-through in the
cosmetic application of Botox® has shown great results in the treatment of excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) in the upper arms or hands and additional studies are being performed in the application of Botox® injections for the treatment of migraines.
Choosing the Right Clinic
It is imperative you choose a proper clinic with experienced staff with medical training when considering Botox® treatments. These injections are a non-surgical procedure and do not have to be performed by a surgeon, however aestheticians without proper medical training will not be able to react appropriately in a potential medical crisis, or may incorrectly perform the injection.
