BOTOX
Very small amount of Botox® are injected into the required areas using a tiny micro needle. This acts by blocking the impulse from the nerve to the muscles, which are related to the lines and wrinkles. The muscles are the relaxed preventing contraction. Following the treatment with Botox® the skin over the muscles remains smooth and even while all untreated areas continue to contract as usual. The effects last up to six months.
Does the injection hurt?
Because the needle is so fine and such small substance quantities are used the pain is minimal. No sedation or local anaesthesia is required. You may experience some itching over the treated area immediately after treatment. You can resume normal activities immediately.
Is Botox® dangerous?
No. Botox® injections have been used safely and effectively for over ten years to treat many ophthalmological and neurological disorders. Each year thousands of patients receive Botox® treatments for a variety of conditions and it is quickly becoming a popular treatment for reversing the visible sign of ageing.
How long will it last?
The improvement you will achieve from the procedure will last anywhere up to 6 months. You will notice a gradual fading of its effect at which point, you may return for a new treatment. The early clinical studies indicate that the duration of treatment benefits is increased over time so that you should require injections less frequently in the future. Also, the duration of effect varies from patient to patient and may be less effective for those over 65 years of age.
Are there any side effects?
Botox® is used in such small quantities that is not harmful. The most common side effects are temporary and localised bruising, slight redness of the skin and occasionally slight swelling at the injection site. Because the effects of Botox® are completely reversible, any side effects are temporary, lasting only a few hours or up to one or two days.
How will I look afterwards?
The results are amazing. it may take two to three days to see an improvement and up to one week to see the overall effects. Then the skin will appear smooth and even showing a youthful glowing appearance. Now you can smile again with confidence.
