Facial Aesthetics is the trade name given to a substance that gets injected into your skin to inhibit the movement of muscles and prevent the formation of wrinkles. The name Facial Aesthetics or Botulinum toxin comes from the word “botulous” which means sausage. Facial Aesthetics has been used in dilute amounts for several years in neurology, ophthalmology and for cosmetic cases worldwide. Facial Aesthetics in Watford is now amongst the popular cosmetic treatments that help to get rid of wrinkles and improve your overall appearance.
Yes, it is absolutely safe to take Facial Aesthetics injections as you won’t get poisoning from them.
Injections are given into the affected area that temporarily keeps overactive muscles to sleep for nearly 4 months. The freezing of muscle is temporary and cannot be permanent. Thus, the treatment is known as Hibernation where the muscle hibernates temporarily.
As the needles are fine, the injected amount is very small every time. Some people consider it to be a small bug bite as sedation or local anaesthesia is not needed.
Commonly treated areas are the forehead, frown lines and crow’s feet. However, the other areas that can be treated are lower eyelids, lips, neck, laugh lines, décolletage and chin.
Yes you can, though it will be more restricted. The extreme movement of muscles that caused wrinkles will be prevented however, other facial muscles won’t get affected.
The difference will be seen in 3 to 5 days though it will vary from person to person. However, the greatest impact can be seen after 2 weeks.
You will find slight redness around the injected area after the treatment. This will settle down after a few hours. You may use an ice pack to decrease redness and make-up can be applied to the treated area to cover the redness.
Facial Aesthetics in Watford is a safe treatment however, there might be side effects though very rare. These include slight bruising on the injected area, slight headache and slight drooping of eyelids that would last for a week only. Since the effects of Facial Aesthetics are reversible, the side effects are usually temporary and last for a short time.
It is advised to avoid doing dynamic exercise and drinking lots of alcohol during the first 4 hours after the treatment. Afterwards, you can resume your normal activities.
You can achieve great results within 3 months in most cases with gradually diminishing effect in the following 3 months. With regular treatment, your muscles will be trained not to move too much so that you perform less treatment to keep facial muscles more relaxed. However, this might vary from one person to the other.
Usually, people like to return every 4 months when they begin their injections, first. Individuals with large facial muscles or expressive faces may need to perform treatment more frequently. People with regular top-ups usually need to go for lesser treatment as their muscles get retrained.
Though this is something unusual, you need to consider that the effects are reversible and you might get back your old wrinkles.
Almost everyone can be treated with it. However, if you are pregnant or suffer from a neurological disorder like Parkinson’s Disease, then you are not the right candidate for it.
