3 Things About Botox
Botox, Botox, Botox! Why’s Botox so popular? It’s because Botox seems like it can be used for just about everything.
And while it’s true that Botox is just one type of treatment out there–when you hear about just how flexible Botox is, you might be just as amazed as the experts.
Here’s three things you might not have known about Botox.
1. Botox Is One of the Most Flexible Anti-Agers out There
Of course, everyone knows Botox is used to reduce wrinkles. But they might not appreciate just how useful its mechanism of action is.
Botox blocks signals that cause muscles to over contract. It’s simple, but it leads to big results. Subtle application of Botox to various places in the face can turn back the clock a decade — all within the span of a lunchtime visit.
2. Botox Can Change the Contour of Your Face
Besides simply reducing wrinkles, Botox is often used in ‘lift’ procedures. For all those individuals who want the benefits of a facelift or a similar procedure without having to go in for a long surgery with an even longer recovery time, Botox, sometimes used in conjunction with fillers, offers a minimally invasive alternative.
3. Botox Can Actually Reduce Sweating
Now, here’s a really surprising one! Adding to Botox’s reputation as a miracle treatment, Botox can actually block signals from sweat glands. For individuals suffering from hyperhidrosis, this isn’t just a big deal. It can be a life changer.
For real. Hyperhydrosis can be one of the most socially debilitating conditions out there. And for one simple 30 minute condition to undo years of embarrassment–well, it can mean a lot to a patient.
