How does Botox treatment work?

Botox works by hindering the release of a neurotransmitter(knownas acetylcholine) from nerve cells. As it is infected in controlled smallvolumes, its effect is restricted to a small group of muscles around theinjected area. As the nerves regenerate after a few months, these effects aretemporary.

When Botox is injected into the muscles, the toxin blocks thesignals transmitted from the nerves to the muscles. Because of the injectedBotox, the muscles temporarily lose the ability to contract. When injected intothe skin, it can block never signals that trigger sweat released from the body.

When injected into facial muscles, temporary weakness occurs inthe muscles. They stop responding to the nerve signals reducing the appearanceof wrinkles and fine lines. This effect becomes visible from about 2to 7 daysafter the anti aging treatment

How long does the effect last?

In the early stages, the effects last somewhere around3-6months. Repeated injections are needed to maintain the look. With periodicsessions in place, the effect starts to stay longer. A very small group ofpeople also have the tendency where they develop antibodies against Botoxinjections after repeated treatments. This means that in those cases, thetreatment will no longer be effective anymore.

Post-treatment Information

The side effects of thistreatment may include swelling in the eyelid area, tiredness, headache,pain,dry eyes, rash, itching, or breathing concerns. But they are mild in nature andfade away in a few days gradually. Still, we recommend discussing your concernswith your consultant to be double sure.
