Botox
What is Botox:
Botox is a cosmetic procedure performed using a substance called botulinum toxin. This procedure is used to reduce or temporarily block wrinkles. Botox can particularly improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the face and neck.
Before Botox:
Prior to the procedure, patients follow these steps:
- Consultation: Botox candidates are evaluated by an aesthetic specialist or dermatologist. During this process, the individual's desires and expectations are determined, and a treatment plan is created.
- Health Assessment: The patient's overall health is examined, and suitability for Botox is assessed.
- Determining the Treatment Area: The areas where Botox will be applied are determined.
After Botox:
After the procedure, patients enter the recovery process and pay attention to the following points:
- It's essential to strictly follow post-operative care instructions.
- The recovery period generally completes within a few days.
- Temporary swelling or bruising may occur.
How Botox is Administered:
Botox is injected into specific muscles using a fine needle. It temporarily paralyzes these muscles, reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
Who Can and Cannot Have Botox:
To determine whether you are a suitable candidate for Botox, consult with an aesthetic specialist or dermatologist. Generally, healthy individuals can have Botox treatments. However, some health conditions or allergies can make the procedure more risky.
