BOTOX Cosmetic Injections - Improve Your Appearance
Posted Feb 28 2010 11:04pm
BOTOX cosmetic injection is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment for reducing and preventing wrinkles appearing on your face. Further, it has been approved by the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) as a safe treatment.
An Effective Treatment for Removing Wrinkles
BOTOX is Botulism Toxin Type A, a purified form of protein, which is directly injected into the specific muscles on your face to remove your facial wrinkles. When Botulism Toxin Type A is injected in a particular area, the muscles there cannot twist for a specific time period, and the wrinkles in that area temporarily go away, thus giving your face a smooth look. Apart from removing wrinkles, BOTOX treatment has proven to be a very effective remedy for treating various medical conditions. The Areas that can be Treated Using BOTOX
• Frown lines • Forehead creases • Crow’s feet (around the eyes) • Glabellar lines (between the eye brows) • Neck bands on the underside of the chin • Wrinkles surrounding the upper lip
Get Instant Results
Most of the patients considering Botox injections for wrinkles are sure to see positive results in a matter of days, usually within 10 days. No recovery time is needed as it is a non-surgical treatment option. Patients can return to routine activities immediately after the treatment. The effect usually lasts between 3 to 6 months, but, repeat injections are often required to maintain the desired results. Slight redness and swelling in the treated area, minor bruising, nausea, and headache can occur after BOTOX treatment.
Before you decide to have BOTOX wrinkle treatment, make sure that the physician you choose is well-experienced and talented in this area.
