Would You Have Known? All Pertaining to Botox Sydney

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin at 7:29 pm on Tuesday, December 29, 2009

Botulinum medicine (abbreviated to BoTox) has become the latest craze amongst Sydney’s fashionable crowd in fact it is becoming an essential part of grooming for many individuals in the city. However I never cease to be amazed when I hear the absurd urban legends surrounding this procedure. Here I have included some of the myths which I encounter all the time in Star Cosmetic Medicine, where I am employed as a doctor.

Mistaken Belief Number 1: The muscles in my forehead could freeze!

Research has discovered there are 60 or so muscles beneath the skin of your face. Their persistent use can cause wrinkles to appear. When surplus BoTox is used the muscles of the face may become over relaxed. The amount injected by nearly all physicians make you look well rested, yet you will remain every bit as expressive.

By employing tiny amounts of the BoTox in exactly the right spot one will have a reduction in any fine lines without reducing facial expression.

Mistaken Belief Number 2: BoTox is a poison!
This to some extent is correct. Its scientific term is Botulinum Toxin Type A. In large doses it may relax facial muscles that you do not want loosened and may even make one extremely sick.

However to maintain some perspective - an ancient pharmacist’s saying is that ‘everything is poisonous - all depending on the dose’. All medicinal drugs in a large enough quantity will make you ill. Even water can be a poison if enough is taken.

Mistaken Belief Number 3: It will hurt!
The hypodermic needles we use at Star Cosmetic Medicine have a diameter smaller than your hair. A lot of individuals have stated that the injections aren’t worse than mosquito bites. For Certain not painful compared to having a regular shot.

Mistaken Belief Number 4: I might lose feeling in my face!
This is completely wrong. BoTox affects the neuromuscular junction, and not on sensate nerve fibers. Only the ability to relax your muscles is affected by BoTox injections.

Mistaken Belief Number 5. You cannot stop having BoTox or else you will develop worse wrinkles than earlier!
This is also false.

You can expect BoTox to be effective for in the region of 3 months. Subsequent injections tend to last a little longer. The lines will gradually re-emerge as the muscle returns to normal. Even So they will not be worse than before the treatment began.

We recommend you hop over to our great web site for Botulinum injections Sydney clues.

As A Matter Of Fact any lines should be be softer than if you had never had BoTox treatment - even should you don’t persevere with the treatment. This, of course is generally because you have allowed your skin to have a ‘wrinkle holiday’ when the treatment was effective.
