“Botulinum toxin is a natural, purified protein extracted from the secretion of bacteria through high-tech purification, and the main component is “botulinum toxin type A”, which is a nerve conduction blocker. Botulinum toxin was first used in 1977 for strabismus patients, then gradually used for facial spasms, strabismus, muscle spasms caused by cerebral palsy, and hand sweating, and began to be used for cosmetic purposes in 1989. Thus, Botox injections can block the relaxation of muscles that are overactive and cause wrinkles, and the muscles relax to restore smooth and youthful skin. However, the ensuing disputes and negative news are also heard from time to time. The actress Nicole Kidman is rumored to have been injected with Botox, and her face is stiff, her expression is unnatural, and the rest of her features are uncoordinated, her eye skin cannot close freely or even her eyes are crooked and her mouth is slanted. But is Botox really that dangerous? In fact, it is innocent, depending on the skill of the “user”, as long as it is used properly, Botox is actually a very good material. Before that, we have consolidated the common myths and questions of the general public. Although Botox is called a wrinkle treatment needle, not all types of wrinkles are suitable to be treated with Botox. On the other hand, you must have heard of another amazing effect of Botox, the face slimming injection, which works by blocking the nerve conduction so that the muscles cannot move, the muscles will slowly shrink, just like the usual weight training. The muscle that is trained will gradually become larger, but after a period of time without training, the muscle will slowly disappear again. The use of this principle acts on the chewing muscle, calf muscle, to achieve the effect. 2, botulinum toxin is not suitable, not recommended treatment parts We know the good of botulinum toxin, but may not know that it is not always so good, to be exact: not every part of the wrinkle can be solved with botulinum toxin? Botox, which is known as a wrinkle remover, is not a treatment for all wrinkles. Because Botox is used to relax the muscles or skin principle to remove wrinkles, under-eye fine lines, decree lines, puppet lines, because located in the center of the face, talking, laughing, smiling, making expressions, will need to use these muscle groups, if you have to control this side of the muscle to tell it not to move, it will be very easy to let people notice the face stiff, as if to tell the world: I went to play Botox! 3, the effect of botulinum toxin time dynamic lines (crow’s feet, head lines, frown lines, etc.) is about 3-7 days after the operation will slowly feel, about 2 weeks – 1 month feeling will be more obvious; chewing muscle thin small about 3-4 weeks, calf muscle is about 1-2 months. 4, botulinum toxin maintenance time General post-operative maintenance effect, about 6-8 months, each person’s habits of life, physique are different, will also affect the post-operative effect of botulinum toxin and the effect of the manifestation, it is generally recommended that half a year to play, play several times after the muscle becomes smaller, the required dose and the frequency of playing will also become relatively small, the treatment effect can also be effectively extended! As for some people will feel that maintaining half a year is too short! It is better to think about it from a different perspective, instead of buying tens of thousands of maintenance products, but do not know when the effect will appear, why not choose a more accurate and efficient way of maintenance. 5, why some people injected botulinum toxin, is stiff and unnatural, expression is not coordinated To improve the problem, the doctor must clearly cause the cause of the problem, clearly for the specific muscle, with the appropriate dose of injection in the correct location. If you hit the wrong muscles, too much dose, wrong concentration assessment, not only the treatment effect is not good, but also may affect the contraction function of other normal facial muscles (for example, the skin smile is not smiling), but make the facial expression asymmetrical or muscle stiffness, strange expression, or even become a wax figure, rubber man. The skin of the face is closely related, for example, some parts of the muscle contraction force is large, particularly deep lines, will play more dose, more fine, superficial lines, play a little less dose, so if the birth of inexperience, not control the dose with the application of the depth, it is likely to occur on the left to play relaxed, the right or tight, the face will appear uncoordinated phenomenon. 6, the so-called slimming needle Botox, is a big face, fat face panacea Botox main function is to “relax the muscles”, if you are because of chewing muscle hypertrophy caused by the face big, then Botox can indeed achieve the purpose of slimming the face. However, there are many reasons why your face may look big. It may be due to aging that causes the skin to be loose and the flesh to hang around the mouth, or the chin may be too short, or the fat may be too thick, so Botox may not be useful. Since there is no cold medicine that can kill all the germs, how can we expect Botox to solve all the big face problems? 7, the thin face can not, played the face more drooping The botulinum toxin that claims to slim the face, let people mistakenly think that playing will V face. In fact, Botox is only for the overdeveloped chewing muscle caused by the phenomenon of a large face. But many people have not seriously understood the principle of Botox, in fact, Botox can only target the chewing muscle caused by the problem of a large face role. There are many people who use Botox treatment because they are not clear about their big face and the clinic does not judge correctly, but after the surgery, it is not effective. Many light mature women, mature women have sagging cheeks, sagging phenomenon, this time if you let the chewing muscle shrink, sagging fat, skin, more will be lost because of the muscle support and fall down. 8, the thin face can not, played the sunken more obvious why playing Botox face will become concave? There are two possible reasons: (1) the doctor’s injection dose, location is not correct; (2) some patients already have a concave face, only less obvious. But after you reduce the size of the chewing muscles, because the lower half of the face is not supported by the muscles, it will be obvious that the face concave changes, visually you will feel that your face concave! 9, not suitable for Botox people are (1) patients with myasthenia gravis, motor neuron degeneration; (2) pregnant or lactating, using aminoglycosides (aminoglycosides) drugs; (3) allergic to other such as to protein; (4) less than 12 years old; (5) injection site infection; (6) want to treat the site of the skin is allergic or inflammation, please finish treatment before playing. 10.Botox can be addictive, not playing will accelerate skin aging I think this is also a question that many people will want to ask, the answer is very straightforward to tell you, it is impossible! Many people feel that when the effect of time, feel as if they have become older, this is actually because they have been used to their youthful state, and then see their own wrinkles or other aging problems, will feel as if they are older; the second reason, in fact, is that with their own physiological aging just. When wrinkles first appear, they are very mild, and gradually deteriorate from mild to moderate and severe, becoming more and more serious. If you don’t take action in time, it will become an expensive treatment that is difficult to deal with; on the contrary, if you can start to do some cosmetic micropigmentation as early as possible, the effect will be better and the cost will be cheaper. Botox is a great treatment for patients with overly muscular faces, so don’t presume that all the problems on your face can be solved with one treatment, facial tissues are very complex, and sometimes with different treatments for fine tuning, the results will be better and more refined! What’s more, the doctor’s preoperative evaluation is very important. Usually, the worse the treatment is, it is usually due to the doctor’s inexperience, improper dosage and incorrect application position. Therefore, before microdermabrasion, it is important to find a good doctor and fully communicate and consult in order to reduce the risk and achieve the ideal condition for each other.
