General Botox Information
As discussed on our main page Botox is used to treat wrinkles and other signs of an aging skin. Some people have asked us whether
it's a complete replacement for face lifts. Our answer : No it is not. Botox can not treat sagging skin like the skin in your neck. What it can do
is almost completely remove crow's feet, and frown lines. Fine wrinkles should be handled with skin care products as Botox is not effective
against those. What Botox does is weaken the muscles that cause wrinkles making your face appear a lot smoother. Botox is an FDA approved product, and treatments are available in most countries. When choosing a plastic surgeon make sure you get references and don't
go for the ones that happen to offer the lowest prices. You should always ask yourself how they are able to afford those prices without compromising on quality. A good plastic surgeon will first go over your situation with you and take the time to explain the procedure. Always
consult your own doctor first to see if you are able to use Botox treatments. Some people like pregnant women should not get Botox treatments done. Your doctor will be able to tell you more and provide you with some good advice.



The Botox Procedure
When you compare the Botox treatment to conventional plastic surgery you will notice that it's quite a small and short procedure. Some treatments only take 15 minutes, and you are able to go to work pretty much right after the injection. Botox is injected into your skin and depending on your situation you may require multiple injections. Make sure you understand how much is being charged as some doctors
have different fee schemes as others. Mild bruising could be a possible effect after treatment, this should subside rather quickly and will
leave no lasting effect. The first visible results should be visible within 24 hours. Please note that Botox treatments last for about 6 months,
after that you will need new injections to keep your skin tight and looking smooth. So make sure you prepare for recurring procedures.
