The Limits And Benefits Of Botox

As we age, we lose collagen in our skin. Collagen is responsible for helping the skin maintain its elasticity. It's what helps overturn cells to make room for new ones. Once our skin starts producing less collagen, it never regains its ability to do it as before.

    While beauty products can go a long way in reducing the look of aging skin, there are cosmetic procedures that can produce a better result. A popular cosmetic treatment is Botox. Botox can help the skin by paralyzing it. When the skin is paralyzed, the movement and stretching that causes wrinkle production will cease.

    There are many benefits, risks, and limitations to the well-known injectable Botox. It isn't capable of getting you the skin you had when you were 20; however, many people have been satisfied with their results. As with all cosmetic options and solutions, we must be evaluated by a professional to see if Botox is right for us. However, knowing the ups and downs of it can help steer us in the right direction.

    Here are the advantages and limits of Botox:

  • Forehead Creases

    Forehead creases come to those who furor their forehead often. When those muscles are tenses, you'll see creases. For those of us who have been tensing those muscles for a long time, we've seen that the creases do not go away after we've relaxed the muscle.

    Botox can save the day when it comes to these types of wrinkles. The skin on your forehead will be relaxed and paralyzed. You should take into account that you may not be able to use those muscles until the effects wear off. It isn't a problem since those muscles aren't used for anything except to express our frustration and stress.

  • Do You Crinkle Your Brow?

    The area between your eyebrows may show deep creases with age. The best remedy is to relax those muscles with some botox. When those muscles are relaxed and paralyzed, the creases will go away.

  • Benefits Beyond Cosmetic Purposes

    Migraines - The exact mechanism for this is completely unknown. When botox is injected into the skin, it lessens the occurrence of migraines. Some wish to take less over-the-counter medications. This is possible when botox is chosen.

    Excessive Sweat - If you have Hyperhidrosis, you probably sweat a lot. Excessive sweating can make us uncomfortable and leave us with a less than pleasant odor. Getting botox injected into areas that are prone to sweat will lessen your skin's sweat production.

    Enlarged Prostate - Botox helps men with enlarged prostates when it is injected into the prostate. The effect usually lasts for a year. They will notice less urination and urinary tract infections.

    Now, as far as limits go...

    Mouth Wrinkles

    Botox isn't an excellent solution for inner cheek and mouth wrinkles. This drug paralyzes the muscles of the mouth. It makes your mouth droopy and impossible to close. The paralyzation effect can last up to three months.

    Emotion

    There have been some studies that botox may temporarily lessen your ability to feel emotions. It's widely known to paralyze muscles that are responsible for expressing emotions. It's slowly being suggested that botox may lessen the feeling of emotion to a small degree.

  • Some Side-Effects May Occur

    Botox reacts differently to different people. The most common issue may be some redness. This usually goes away fairly quickly. Bruising is unlikely. Your skin is probably on the sensitive side if this occurs. This can sometimes occur if the botox is injected incorrectly.

    Botox can cause flu-like symptoms; however, this is rare. If you have a reaction that makes you feel very sick, call the dermatologist who performed it. The symptoms should pass in a day or two if it happens.

  • It Is Not The Fountain Of Youth

    Botox can go along way when it comes to reducing the appearance of aging. In the best cases, it visibly reduces the effects of aging by ten years. However, it cannot make 40-year-old women look 18.

    In some cases, more invasive solutions may be helpful to your needs. Surgeries such as a facelift or other facial rejuvenation procedures might be necessary. Keep open communication with your dermatologist. They'll tell you what the best options are for you.
