Botox relaxes the muscles responsible for lines and wrinkles. It is
administered via injections using a fine micro needle, which takes only a
few minutes, creating a noticeable improvement within days. Pain is minimal
(more a mild discomfort), though a local anaesthetic can be applied to the
treatment area prior to injection. This cosmetic enhancement lasts for
between 3 - 6 months depending upon the individual's skin and response.
Immediately after treatment clients are advised not to undertake energetic
exercise, lie down flat or drink alcohol. This is only for a 4 hour
duration, otherwise you may carry on with your regular activities.
Botox injections are used to treat frown lines, glabellar wrinkles and
crow's feet. Botox can also be used in a non-cosmetic capacity to treat
hyperhidrosis - excessive sweating.
What is Botox
Botox is a weakened solution of a substance produced by the Clostridium
bacterium. The full name is Botulinum Toxin A. Botox injections have been safely
used for over 30 years in conventional medicine and for cosmetic therapy.
Side effects very rarely occur but can include localised bruising and slight
swelling at the site of injection, which usually disappear within a day or so.
It is an excellent, safe, quick and very effective treatment for frown lines,
glabellar lines and crow's feet and is ideal for most people, with the exception
of those who may be pregnant or breast feeding.
Hyperhidrosis - excessive sweating
Perspiration is a natural process. Unfortunately some people suffer from
embarrassing excessive sweat gland activity affecting areas such as hands and
underarms. Hyperhidrosis can inhibit your confidence and dictate your wardrobe.
Simple Botox injections in the areas can prevent the sweat glands from producing
perspiration. The treatment begins to work within 3 - 4 days and can be
effective for up to one year, allowing you to relax and enjoy life.
