Botox Injections have a bad label in the name of a ‘toxin’ making them sound potentially hazardous for the body and that is not the case. Just like penicillin is made from mould, botox is purified protein made my botulism for relaxing the muscles. It is 100% and FDA approved so there’s not two thoughts about it’s safety when injected into the facial muscles.
It is a myth that Botox moves around the body and the bloodstream and has the ability to spread or spread it’s effects. Botox Injections are simply injected into the concerned muscle to help it relax and prevent involuntary contractions that the face makes whilst pulling off expressions. Hence they will only affect the muscle they are injected into.
Botox can soften fine lines, smooth deep wrinkles and lift droopy areas of the face. People are usually confused as to what can Botox Injections actually do for the face. They can soften fine lines for instance around the mouth area, smooth out deep horizontal and vertical wrinkles on the forehead and lift droopy areas of the face such as the eye brows.
Compared to skincare, it works effectively and in a guaranteed way. You don’t have keep your fingers crossed to see results or wait for months to see a difference. Results are immediate and you will be able to see them in a few days time. It also works a preventative measure compared to skincare products. Because there’s no creasing in the face, there will be no further wrinkles.
People will only notice you looking fresh, awake, pleasant and generally happier and more youthful but they won’t be able to tell that you have got Botox done unlike cosmetic surgery where results are evident and obvious.
