Wrinkles are a woman’s “heart disease”, and Botox has become one of the popular means of wrinkle reduction, especially for eliminating head lines, frown lines and bilateral crow’s feet. In recent years, the number of Botox injections has increased dramatically. In the United States in 2008, the number one ranking among all types of minimally invasive cosmetic procedures was botulinum toxin injections. There are still many misunderstandings about Botox. Botox for wrinkle removal is not a general cosmetic procedure, but a medical procedure. Although Botox itself is toxic, the amount used for cosmetic purposes, especially for wrinkle removal, is very small and far below the dose that would be toxic to the body. To make Botox work, however, requires an experienced and accurate injection doctor. If you are not familiar with the facial nerves and muscle anatomy, if you are not precise in the injection site, or if you use too much concentration or dose, it can lead to serious consequences. The most effective way to remove wrinkles from dynamic lines Botox is to temporarily block the nerve that causes muscle contraction by injecting botulinum toxin type A, so that the wrinkles caused by muscle movement at the injection site (i.e., dynamic lines) disappear, and is effective for about 6 months. The best results are achieved after 1 month of botulinum toxin injection for wrinkle reduction. Clinical observation shows that after 7 days of treatment, more than 90% of the injected patients get significant improvement in wrinkles, and the efficiency rate reaches a peak of 94% in 30 days, and the efficiency rate is still above 52% after 4 months. Botulinum toxin is most suitable for people aged 30 to 45 years old, and the most effective area is the dynamic wrinkles led by frown lines. Since Botox works on the muscles, wrinkles that exist without any expression (i.e., static lines) are not suitable for treatment by Botox injection. Also, because Botox works on the neuromuscular junction, people with lesions in this area are also not suitable for Botox injections. Botulinum toxin is not as scary as its name sounds, but as long as it is injected by a trained doctor in a regular hospital, its effectiveness and safety can be guaranteed. It is safe to inject no more than 100 units at a time. “It is a highly purified botulinum toxin wrinkle removal product, the production and extraction process is relatively advanced, it is the use of fermentation method to inoculate a small amount of Clostridium botulinum in a large number of medium, under the anaerobic, suitable temperature and acidity, the bacteria replicated in large numbers and self-destruction. Then it goes through a purification process to obtain the toxin stock solution. The toxin molecules are only effective if they are cut, and 95-100% of the “BOTOX” is cut. Therefore, after injecting this high-purity product under the skin, there will be no redness and swelling because of the small number of impurities; in addition, after a special molecular cutting process, the end peptides of the toxin molecules are removed, and no abnormal reactions such as dizziness and nausea will occur in the relevant muscles, and to a greater extent, it will also ensure that there will be no penetration and diffusion after the drug is injected, and it will not affect the movement of the expression muscles outside the target. Botulinum toxin wrinkle removal requires a very experienced doctor who injects with a very accurate technique, which is not something that can be done by doctors and salons outside of plastic surgery. Under regular operation, the safety of Botox wrinkle removal is over 97%, and the only possible reactions are local pain and local bleeding. The most common reactions to frown line treatment are drooping eyelids and nausea, which occur less than 3% of the time, and there are very few cases of serious cardiac adverse reactions. “Botulinum toxin injections are used for frown lines, but also for crow’s feet, head lines, and even for face slimming. We have a lot of people who have Botox injections to remove head lines and slim their faces. As Botox continues to be used in medicine, its field of use has been further expanded to treat diseases caused by the autonomic nerves, including hyperhidrosis, intractable pain and itchy diseases, and the cosmetic field has found that the treatment of calf muscle hypertrophy caused by carrot legs and “face” is also very effective. Who is not suitable for Botox injections? At present, botulinum toxin injections for wrinkle removal have surpassed other cosmetic items such as fruit acid peels, laser peels, and autologous fatty liver disease peels. Although there are many good methods of botulinum toxin injection for wrinkle removal, it is most suitable for early and less obvious wrinkles. If the patient has deep wrinkles and severely sagging skin, the results may not be as good as you would like. In addition, pregnant women, breastfeeding women, patients with severe muscle weakness, those with allergies, those with ptosis and those with internal diseases such as heart, liver, lung and kidney are not suitable for wrinkle removal through Botox injections. Strictly speaking, except for BOTOX, the world’s first approved botulinum toxin, all other botulinum toxins on the market for wrinkle removal are illegal. Plastic surgery is a high-risk industry, and you should go to a regular hospital for treatment and examination, not a general beauty salon.
