WHAT IS BOTULINUM TOXIN TYPE A?
Botulinum Toxin Type A is the ultimate solution for combating facial lines and wrinkles which may occur as a result of the growing stress of modern day living. It is an effective procedure and has been the hidden secret for many celebrities in the entertainment industry. HOW DOES IT WORK? Botulinum Toxin Type A comes only in the form of an injection, it's injected into the skin and it is a therapeutic formula that works by relaxing the muscles thus stopping the skin from forming wrinkles and lines. The wrinkles as we all know are often created by repeated contractions, it helps by relaxing the muscle making the contractions less likely to affect the face. HOW LONG DOES IT LAST? To see the final result it takes 5-8 days and will last approximately 6-8 months. Botulinum Toxin Type A simply is younger looking skin in 30 mins. You will notice a gradual fading of its effect at which point, you may return for new treatment. The early clinical studies indicate that the duration of treatment benefits is increased over time so that you should require injections less frequently in the future. Also, the duration of effect varies from patient and may be less effective for those over 65 years old. IS THERE ANY DANGER No. The injections have been used safely and effectively for over 10 years to treat many Ophthalmological Neurological disorders. Each year thousands of patients receive treatments for a variety of conditions and it is quickly becoming a popular treatment for reversing the visible sign of ageing. Botulinum Toxin Type A is used in such small quantities that it is not harmful. The most common side effects are temporary and localised bruising, slight redness of the skin and occasionally slight swelling at the injection site. Because the effects are completeley reversble, any side effects are temporary, lasting only a few hours or up to 1 or 2 days. |
