<strong>Facts</strong> about <strong>Botox</strong> <strong>Treatment</strong><br />

<strong>Botox</strong> treatment is widely acclaimed procedure to get rid of wrinkles and fine lines from<br />

our face and neck. If you want to remove the signs of aging like wrinkles and facial lines<br />

from your face then <strong>Botox</strong> treatment is an ideal solution that can give you desired<br />

results.<br />

Main Content: <strong>Botox</strong> comprises of a toxin created by the bacteria known as Clostridium<br />

botulinum. It is exactly the same toxin which is behind the life-threatening kind of food<br />

poisoning commonly known as botulism. <strong>Botox</strong> treatment should only be done by the<br />

best cosmetic surgeon in Mumbai. Surgeons utilise it in small and prescribed doses<br />

to treat medical problems, which include<br />

Injections are used in <strong>Botox</strong> treatment to get the job done by<br />

paralyzing or weakening muscles or by obstructing specific<br />

nerves. The results usually remain for about three to twelve<br />

months, and it largely depends on what you are treating. The<br />

commonest side effects that can develop from <strong>Botox</strong> treatment are pain, swelling, or<br />

bruising in the area where injections have been applied. These side effects go away<br />

with time.<br />

Some people can also develop headache, flu-like signs and symptoms, and upset<br />

tummy. Injections which are used on the facial muscles can also result in short-term<br />

drooping eyelids. Generally, surgeons don’t recommend <strong>Botox</strong> treatment for women<br />

who are either pregnant or breastfeeding.


‣ How <strong>Botox</strong> <strong>Treatment</strong> Functions?<br />

<strong>Botox</strong> works by blocking signals which are sent from nerves to the muscles. The<br />

injected muscles are unable to contract which makes the wrinkles and fine lines to<br />

soften.<br />

<strong>Botox</strong> is mostly applied in the lines on forehead, fine lines which are round the eye (also<br />

known as crow's feet), and frown lines. Wrinkles which occur due to sun damage and<br />

gravity might fail to respond to <strong>Botox</strong> treatment. <strong>Botox</strong> treatment can prove to be<br />

extremely useful to remove lines from neck, lips, chin and corner of the mouth.<br />

‣ How A <strong>Botox</strong> <strong>Treatment</strong> Is Performed?<br />

<strong>Botox</strong> treatment will take only a few hours and isn't going to involve any amount of local<br />

anaesthesia. <strong>Botox</strong> is injected into certain muscles by using a fine needle which might<br />

cause a little discomfort. It normally takes around 3 to 5 days or even a week to fully<br />

show the impact.<br />

It’s strongly recommended by the surgeons that you should stop any type of alcohol<br />

consumption before undergoing <strong>Botox</strong> treatment. Avoid using aspirin and any type of<br />

anti-inflammatory drugs at least two weeks in advance of <strong>Botox</strong> treatment to minimise<br />

any chances of bruising.<br />

‣ How Long <strong>Botox</strong> <strong>Treatment</strong> Lasts?<br />

The results obtained from <strong>Botox</strong> treatment will remain for at least 4 to 6 months. With<br />

time the movement in muscles return which marks the return of wrinkles and fine lines.<br />

However, you can go for <strong>Botox</strong> treatment again to get wrinkles and fine lines removed.
