The hidden benefits of Botox

Botox is a cosmetic procedure in which anti-wrinkle injections remove signs of ageing from patients’ faces. While in the past it’s commonly been used by celebrities, these days more men and women are turning to the treatment than ever before. Why? Well, the technique is proven to take years off people’s appearance and leave them looking vibrant and youthful. However, the procedure is about much more than just aesthetics. With this in mind, here are three hidden benefits to Botox.

Self-esteem

Individuals who receive botulinum toxin injections are liable to receive a boost to their self-esteem once the effects take hold. This ability to feel more comfortable in one’s own skin can lead to increased mental health, a more sociable attitude, a new sense of confidence and a willingness to try new things. Essentially, Botox removes the daily anguish of seeing a smiling face staring back at one’s self in the mirror and replaces it with a seemingly much younger version. 

Time-effective

Women – and men for that matter – can spend years experimenting with different beauty regimes in the hope that one will shave years off their face. This can be anything from moisturisers to anti-wrinkle cream. While a few may experience some success by going down this route, others may find it an exhausting and unfruitful process. Botox is therefore a more time-effective way to appear more youthful. It can simply be used once or twice a year, with many appointments taking no longer than an hour.

Opportunities

In 2011, the Financial Review reported that men had begun to turn to cosmetic work in an attempt to boost their job prospects. This followed what was already a common trend where women – especially those in the entertainment industry – insisted that a surefire way to take the next step in their career was by having Botox. The likes of Ruby Wax have previously attributed their continued success to the procedure. 

Enjoy the benefits for yourself!

Anyone interested in taking advantage of these benefits – as well as many more – should get in touch with Dr. Paul Silvester. As well as Botox, other treatments available include dermal fillers and hyperhidrosis.
