Do You Believe the Misconceptions of Botox injection? Check Out the True Benefits

Recently, Botox has gained the most popular and successful cosmetic stratagem in the whole of the United Kingdom. Yet, there are still a number of misconceptions about this wonderful procedure which of course, still scares a lot of people away. It’s so amazing how most people don’t bother to check out which of this information is false or just mere misconceptions and or the true benefits of the Botox treatments.

Lists of these misconceptions are;
​
  • Botox treatment gives a frozen appearance.
  • It’s harmful.
  • The injections are so painful.
  • It only works for facial wrinkles.
  • Botox treatment can remove all facial lines.
  • It’s administered by non-professionals.
  • Other anti-aging treatments are better.
  • It’s the same as Derma Fillers.
  • Its effects are experienced almost immediately.
  • It’s only used by women.

The list of misconceptions goes on and on but they are just mere assumptions and false perceptions. 

The Botox injection is, of course, a purified protein gotten from the Botulinum toxin extracted from the botulism food poisoning bacteria but that doesn’t make it harmful. It’s completely safe for use for both medical and cosmetic treatments. 

It’s not true that this treatment gives a frozen appearance. In fact, it doesn’t affect the facial muscles involved in the overall facial expression but only targets deep wrinkles like the cow’s feet, the forehead furrows, and smile lines. You look more refreshed and youthful with the Botox treatment rather than the false perception of a frozen appearance. 

Compared to other alternative treatments involving surgical procedures, the Botox injection is cheaper, harmless, and painless and of course, administered by an expert which makes it much safer than any other alternative procedures. 

The True Benefits of the Botox Injection
For the most of us, the only thing we’ve heard or understood by the Botox injection or treatments is only its facial smoothening abilities and wrinkles eradicating powers. However, the list of benefits of this treatment goes beyond just cosmetic reasons. Here are a few listed benefits of the Botox treatment or injection:
  • Botox treatment is a non-surgical procedure to reduce wrinkles and fine lines and improve facial appearance.
  • It doesn’t require any rest after treatment compared to other alternative procedures.
  • It’s a lot cheaper.
  • Botox can give your whole face a more youthful and glowing look when combined with Juvederm.
  • It can erase the signs of ageing completely.
  • It’s the only procedure that gives you a more attractive and natural look.
  • It can reduce or eradicate hyperhidrosis completely. 
  • Botox injection treats pain and migraine.
  • It can eradicate excessive sweating.
  • It reduces the size of the prostate gland.
  • In women, the Botox treatment can eradicate pains during sex.
  • It reduces muscle aches.
  • It aids post stroke recovery.
  • It can also be used for eye treatment.

Added to this are lots more benefits and researchers are still at work. 

​Although you’ll likely feel a few seconds discomfort like the feeling of pitches during the process, there are absolutely no side effects attached to this treatment whatsoever. Millions of people have safely used this treatment in the United Kingdom.

How Botox can help with excessive sweating

Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis, as it is often known, can be an unpleasant condition for both the person suffering and for others around them. Some people with hyperhidrosis can sweat up to five times more than is needed for the body to use the sweating system as it should to reduce heat, and cool down the body. 

For most people, anti-perspirants and regular washing are adequate to keep sweating in control without any embarrassing situations where your sweat becomes unmanageable. If you suffer from excessive sweating, trying to control the flow of sweat can often end up leaving you panicked and stressed, which has the adverse effect of making you sweat more. 

One of the most popular and effective ways to deal with sweat is to use Botox to halt the nerve which triggers the production of sweat.

How does it work?

During the procedure, Botox is injected into certain areas of the skin where sweat is produced in excess. The Botox works by blocking the nerves that supply the eccrine gland, in turn preventing the glands from producing sweat. The product within Botox is botulinum toxin, which has been used safely for many years to suit a wide range of treatments across the body and face. After your treatment, you'll be able to return to your normal day, whether that's work or leisure, within 20 minutes.

Is it effective? 

There are several reasons why Botox is such a popular solution to excess sweating, including the almost non-existent recovery time. Compared to other cosmetic procedures, the injections are non-invasive and almost entirely pain free, with people reporting to feel only a tiny pinprick as the needle reaches the skin. The results can be seen within the month of treatment and usually last up to six months. 

If you want to understand more about how Botox could help you to manage your excessive sweating so that you feel relaxed and comfortable in any situation, contact Dr Paul Silvester's clinic today. Having been qualified for 15 years, and trained by an expert professor from the International Academy of Advanced Facial Aesthetics, you will be in expert hands in Dr Paul's Bath-based clinic.

Turning back time with facial aesthetics

When you feel 25 on the inside, you want to look 25 on the outside too! Unfortunately, your skin often has other ideas and life can take its toll in the form of 'crows' feet', wrinkles and laughter lines. Fortunately, facial aesthetics are there to turn back the clock for your skin.

Here are just a few of the ways you can allow cosmetic surgery to turn back the clock.

Botox

Botox injections work by paralysing the nerves within the subcutaneous muscles (those that are sited beneath the surface of the skin), so that the muscles cannot move. This effectively prevents the formation of crows’ feet, frown lines, lipstick lines, and wrinkles. This cosmetic treatment is delivered into the target areas of the patient’s face via injection using extremely fine needles. 

Although it’s pretty painless, you may experience a slight stinging sensation that quickly subsides. You may also have a small amount of bleeding and bruising immediately after the treatment. The effect of Botox treatment usually lasts for up to six months. You will then need to have the injections repeated in order to maintain the wrinkle-free effect.

Botox injectables can be bought online, but for safety reasons you should always have the treatment carried out by a qualified, professional clinician. 

Dermal fillers

Dermal fillers are a very popular treatment for wrinkles. The deep lines on your face are injected with hyaluronic acid which plumps up the skin and softens the lines leaving a more youthful-looking skin. Although recovery time is very quick, dermal filler treatment does need repeating every six months or so.

A word of caution: always use an experienced and reputable clinic for dermal filler treatment. There have been some horror stories where fillers have gone wrong.

In conclusion

There are many options available these days for people who wish to turn back the years and look younger. If you decide to opt for anything other than an over-the-counter serum or cream, always consult a qualified reputable cosmetic surgeon before taking a more radical route.
