You may have wondered if Botox really works to help diminish fine lines and wrinkles. Or, you may have wondered if you will look ‘fake’ or ‘false’ if you have Botox done. This article will help describe how Botox works, and who benefits from this procedure.
Botox works by temporarily ‘paralyzing’ the muscles that cause wrinkles to appear. Botox works well against all types of wrinkles, and can be used for moderate to severe wrinkles. Botox is especially helpful in eliminating crow’s feet, worry lines, mouth lines, and furrows between eyebrows.
No anesthetic is needed. Botox is a simple, small injection given to patients. The whole procedure lasts about 10 minutes. Results are seen within three days.
Botox is temporary. Results will last about three to four months. If you decide not to have repeated Botox treatments, the lines and wrinkles that were there before will return.
The best results of Botox are seen when early intervention is started. Botox is not for everyone, and before having or receiving a Botox treatment, make sure that you share with your physician any medications (including herbals and supplements) you are on, if you have ever had problems breathing, or if you have any other types of chronic disorders. Together, you and your physician can make the best decision on your anti-aging regimen.
