, but many people, at statements about Botox, at once have thoughts of the lips rolled by silicone, a forehead, cheeks and for some reason buttocks. Strange, but silicone is one, and the medicine Botox – absolutely another.
What is actually Botox? It is medicine which contains botulotoxin – one of the known toxins which causes botulism. This serious infectious disease which affects nervous system of the person however you should not be afraid, cosmetic medicine contains its minimum doses, as well as in any other medicine based on concentration of certain poisons.
And so, in the cosmetic purposes Botox is used for elimination of wrinkles in different places – on a forehead, in eyes, a mouth and other places. Some people very much are afraid of such procedures as saw enough various transfers where mistakes at a medicine injection were made and therefore complications were caused.
Especially you are surprised, to people who claim that Botox – toxic medicine. As well as it was told above, many drugs are produced from poisons, however nobody for some reason gets poisoned and dies. And all because concentration their very small somehow to influence a human body. For example, it is possible to take a sting of a mosquito which is infected with HIV infection. It will also not be able to infect the person as concentration of a virus in saliva is very small and to catch – about 5 liters of such saliva are necessary. And still, not to allow an injection of high doses of botulotoxin, address only experienced experts.
Many claim that use of Botox leads to a certain dependence. It is said probably by those who do not understand the mechanism of use. Injections do not affect all life, and only a certain period. Usually it is about 4 up to 7 months then one more injection is required. As they say – beauty demands certain efforts and observation. And therefore as wrinkles develop on a face again, at once it is necessary to address the cosmetologist or the esthetic surgeon again. And by the way, there are such a statement and the checked fact that prevention of wrinkles at early age, namely in youth, leads to absence of wrinkles at adults as it is not formed folds and face muscles are in the usual state, without causing on skin of any mimic changes.
It is often possible to notice that on many TV channels broadcast transmissions about by-effects of plastic surgery. And even more often it is possible to see the distorted faces when using Botox. All at once begin to be indignant that the new fashion of plasticity and an esthetics does not spare many people at all and always guilty are cosmetologists and esthetic surgeons.
However, each rumors have primary sources which generate them and who transfers, that usually and exaggerates. Yes, in use of botulotoxin there are shortcomings which appear almost in all such cases because of medicine misuse. Personally at my observation, during the big period of time, many patients to whom drug was injected felt perfectly and the cosmetic effect was available – a uniform wrinkle.
Botox or other medicines which contain botulotoxin in cosmetology began to be applied enough recently as before it used as paralyzes medicine and muscular spasms. Now the product is used for elimination of wrinkles, the increased perspiration, squint and even at back pains. The increased perspiration or as it is called by doctors – a hyper hydrosis, is treated successfully, especially in underarms. To patients certain doses are entered then the effect occurs in 1-2 days. The repeated injection is carried out usually in 10-12 months. It is especially good to perform this procedure before a summer season.
Some cosmetologists claim that to Botox there can be a resistance, in other words – accustoming of an organism to toxin. In this case antibodies which eliminate effect of Botox are developed. Clinical experiments showed that it develops very seldom and is solved with use of other medicine.
As a result of many researches in recent years and also constant observations in many clinics it is noticeable that the popularity of use of botulotoxin continues to grow in a geometrical projection. Many young men and girls begin to use injections at young age to prevent appearance of wrinkles in the future. It seems that this new fashion will end enough not soon.
