Botox and Aesthetic

   Botox is a purified protein toxin which is obtained from the bacteria named "clostridium botulinum". The application isn't harmfull because it is being used in small doses and it is not dispersed in the body. This protein relaxes muscles around the application area and it stretches the skin for an amount of time. This helps the area to look younger. Botox is injected with small doses under the skin, on the problematic area of the face. Due to the operation, the tense muscles are relaxed. Botox reaches to its maximum performance after 3 weeks of its applying.

   The stability period of botox is approximately 3 to 6 months and this timing shows differences from an individual to another one. Generally, repetition of the treatment is advised in each 4 to 6 months. The patients who applied botox regularly for 2 years can have a visible weakening in their muscles and this can change their expression depending on the area. As a matter of fact; it is considered beneficial to apply the product in longer periods of time after the second year. Applying ice to the treatment area after the botox decreases possible panicula or pain. The patient can go back to normal life right after but the complete healing lasts approximately 10 to 15 minutes. 4 to 6 hours must pass before sleeping. It is necessary to rub the area gently.

   The most effective results of apllication are obtained on those parts of the face: bowls, forehead, goose foot; which has a ratio 1/3 of total face. Besides, this method is applied successfully for lifting the tip of the nose; recovering the upper lip wrinkles, recovering the extreme tension on the chin and the healing of the neck wrinkles.
