Overactive facial muscles cause dynamic facial lines and make us look older than we are. Removing these lines surgically can be very troublesome. By injecting Botox into selected facial muscles, we give you a more attractive and younger appearance for at least four months.
The application takes twenty minutes and you can return to your normal life immediately.
“ The line between my eyebrows makes me look angry, even though I’m not.”
“The lines on my forehead make me look older than I am.”
“I love laughing, but the corners of my eyes wrinkle a lot.”
“I wish my eyebrows were more raised.”
Maybe you have this type of complaint or you are curious about BOTOX® and want to know more. And you’re wondering if BOTOX® is right for you.
Every time we move our facial expressions, that is, when we laugh, get angry, or are surprised, the muscles under the skin move. As these movements are constantly repeated, wrinkles form on our face over time. These wrinkles are called dynamic wrinkles.
The frequency of a person’s facial expressions, the duration of exposure to the sun, skin and muscle structure, age and gender are determinants of the level of these wrinkles.
Who is Suitable for Wrinkle Treatment with BOTOX®?
If you are between the ages of 18-65 and want to look your best, BOTOX® is suitable for you. Thousands of women and men who care about their appearance have discovered the benefits of BOTOX®. Not just artists, politicians, models, but teachers, mothers and people from business and all walks of life.
What is BOTOX®?
BOTOX® is a simple, non-surgical application that reduces dynamic wrinkles and lines that form on the face over time.
With a twenty-minute application, it relaxes the muscles that cause wrinkles for up to 4 to 6 months. It starts to be effective within 3-7 days.
Since it is an easy, fast application that does not require a recovery period, many people return to work and daily life after the application.
To which areas is BOTOX® applied?
Especially the lines on the forehead, between the eyebrows and around the eyes, which appear due to the movement of the facial muscles, respond extremely well to BOTOX® treatment.
Apart from this, upper lip and neck lines can be treated.
Additionally, BOTOX® is used to treat sweating in the hands, feet and armpit areas.
How to Apply?
Your doctor determines the area to be injected to get the best result. Anesthesia is not required, depending on sensitivity, an anesthetic cream or ice compress may be applied. Very small doses of BOTOX® are injected into each area to be applied. Application time is approximately 20 minutes. You will immediately return to your normal activity.
How Long Does the Effect of BOTOX® Last?
The effect of BOTOX® lasts up to 4 months. This period increases with repeated applications.
Are There Any Side Effects? Are BOTOX® Applications Painful?
In conscious and experienced hands, it has very few side effects. Very rarely, temporary eyelid drooping may occur as a result of headache or misapplication. Rarely, slight redness may be observed in the injection area and can be easily covered with make-up.
A slight and short-term stinging sensation is felt. When the application is completed, there is usually no pain.
What Exactly is BOTOX®?
BOTOX® is a natural, purified protein produced from the bacteria Clostridum Botulinum. It is applied to the muscles that cause wrinkles in very low doses with fine-tipped syringes. Botox® works by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles. The effect of BOTOX® is limited to the area where it is applied, it does not circulate within the body.
Points to Consider Before Application?
Inform your doctor about your current health problems and the medications you are using, if any.
BOTOX® application is not recommended during pregnancy and lactation.
If you have had any previous surgery in the area where BOTOX® will be applied or if you have severe neurological diseases, inform your doctor about this.
