Anti-wrinkle injections come with so many advantages that few people know about. They are no one trick pony. We are sure that you’ll be surprised when you find out some of the great advantages that are there to be grabbed with both hands!

Anti-Wrinkle Advantages Not to be Missed!

The key concept of anti-wrinkle injections is what they do to the muscles that they are injected in to. In short, the muscle is relaxed meaning that it cannot work as it used to before the administration of your treatment. This is very helpful in circumstances where we want to subdue the muscle. Of course, caution is needed when treating patients with Botox. That is why we recommend you only visit a trained professional when seeking the treatment. This is for two reasons. Firstly, the proper training is needed to ensure that the right amount of Botox is being injected safely and into the correct area. If this is done wrong then you can be left with the wrong muscles becoming unresponsive for the next 6 months! The second key factor is that the Botox needs to be obtained from a reliable source. If you visit a beauty salon then your Botox is likely not to have been prescribed by a doctor. This lays doubt as to where exactly the Botox has been sourced from and raises an issue of safety. You need to be certain that the Botox being used is in fact what it is supposed to be!

Solution to Lines and Wrinkles

When you create expressions with your face, specific facial muscles are used. They are also used for certain functions such as speaking and closing the eyes. Botox or ‘anti-wrinkle’ injections work by softening those muscles that create facial expressions. However, it is important for a trained professional to administer such treatments in order for your to have piece of mind that those important functions of the muscles will not be adversely affected.

In the hands of an experienced practitioner Botox can be used as a tool to craft a soft, natural face that can share your true feelings and expressions without the mask of garish wrinkles.

During treatment, a very fine needle is used to inject a small dose of Botox into the targeted muscle. The effects will show within five to seven days.

How Does it Work?

The anti-wrinkle formula works by blocking the nerve impulses of the injected muscle. The effect of this is that the muscle’s ability to move is blocked. The wrinkle in the skin above then slowly softens out to a smooth surface.

The rejuvenating and youthful benefits of anti-wrinkle injections will hold for around five months but the length of effect will differ slightly with different patients and with the quality of Botox used in the treatment.

Brow Lift

Anti-wrinkle injections can also be used to lift the brow. In order to do this the Botox is injected into the ‘crows feet’ area either side of the eyes. The aim is to stop those muscles form pulling down on your brow. The Botox relaxes those muscles and allows your brow to move back up into a relaxed position. This creates the brow lift and works very well as a treatment.

Reduce Excessive Sweating

yes, that’s correct, Botox can be used to put a halt to excessive sweating! The treatment is very popular in Summer and with those attending events such as Brides who don’t want sweat patches appearing on their glamorous wedding dresses.

Excessive sweating or ‘hyperhidrosis‘ is defeated by Botox by getting in the way of the neurotransmitter that talks to the sweat glands. This disruption in communication means that when the neurotransmitter tells the sweat glands to start producing more sweat, the glands cannot hear the message and so keep your pits dry!

The treatment has been approved by the Drug authorities and can last for as long as eight months.

Combat Migraines

Research has shown that whilst suffering from a migraine, the muscles to the sides and back of a person’s head contract. This causes the pain that is felt during the migraine. You will often see sufferers attempting to relieve the pain by massaging the temples. This works by relaxing the muscles and does provide slight temporary comfort for those in pain.

Botox works also by relaxing the muscles. By injecting the sites of muscle contraction, your muscles stop exerting so much force and the migraine subsides. Enough research has been conducted into this use of botox such that it can be prescribed on the NHS for the treatment of migraines.
