5 Reasons to Get Botox NOW
Botox is a household name these days. It’s more uncommon to meet someone over 30 who hasn’t yet gotten Botox, than to find someone au natural. The first aesthetic injectable on the scene, Botox has remained on the top of the totem pole for good reason: it’s amazing.
Botox wasn’t originally formulated to just smooth out wrinkles. It’s much more powerful than that, making it worthy of anyone’s consideration. Read on to learn 5 reasons why this specific neurotoxin is the best and why it may be time to consider getting Botox at Lea Henderson Aesthetics in Albuquerque (if you haven’t already).
What exactly is BOTOX?
Let’s start with the basics: what is Botox? Botox is a neurotoxin, aka a muscle relaxant. Syringes of the magical formula are injected via needle strategically into the face and other body areas for numerous different reasons. Most commonly, Botox is used for aesthetics to constrain the muscles that cause wrinkles to form.
Every day, our face makes hundreds - even thousands - of “faces.” The muscles that are associated with facial expressions like frowning, smiling, or laughing all cause creases in the skin’s uppermost layers, aka wrinkles. Neurotoxins, like Botox, allow the skin surrounding these muscles to relax, resulting in a more youthful appearance. However, there are other medical reasons people consider getting Botox. That’s next.
5 Reasons to Consider Getting the Neurotoxin Botox
Want to learn more about what Botox can accomplish? Here are FIVE amazing reasons to subscribe to this neurotoxin.
Smooth Wrinkles & Look Younger
Botox relaxes muscles and smooths the appearance of skin. Millions of patients worldwide love the results that Botox provides to make one look younger. The average person can enjoy optimal Botox results for 3-4 months. This long-lasting, FDA-approved, limited-wrinkle lifestyle is popular and growing each day as a safe, non-invasive way to eliminate wrinkles.
Prevent Future Fine Lines
In the past decade or so, “preventative Botox” has grown in popularity around the world and here in Albuquerque. Because Botox is a muscle relaxant, it doesn’t just smooth existing wrinkles. Botox can also prevent wrinkles from forming in the first place. If you begin Botox or neurotoxin injections at an earlier age (mid-20’s), you can prevent deeper, more intense wrinkles later on.
Relieve Sweating in Unwanted Areas
Have you ever wondered how celebrities don’t sweat through a ball gown on the red carpet? Botox. This neurotoxin is used commonly to treat hyperhidrosis, aka excessive sweating, particularly in the armpit area. Simple Botox injections under the arms can lessen the amount of sweat produced and therefore, prevent it from ever pumping out of your sleeves.
Reduce Chronic Migraines
Do you suffer from chronic migraines? If so, there’s a good chance your doctor may recommend getting Botox. Getting Botox neurotoxin injections to the temple and neck can help prevent chronic migraines and lessen the negative side effects related to them like nausea and sensitivity to light and noise.
Deeper Medicinal Uses for Botox
Like I said earlier. Botox is powerful stuff beyond aesthetics. Botox has also been used medically to treat things like acne, limb spasticity (involuntary muscle contractions), cervical dystonia aka “tech neck” from hunching over a desk all day, and even eyelid spasms. That said, you should always speak to your medical professional before engaging in Botox or any other form of injection!
