Remove Wrinkles with B_T_X?
To remove wrinkles with Botox is the hugely successful advertising campaign. Doctors offices get phone call after inquiry from housewives and women executives alike. But you know what, this product is not just for women either.
Is Botox for You?
What Botox injections do are freeze the muscles underneath your frown lines for example. Now, this is not a permanent position. And over time in order to maintain that youthful look there are maintenance injections as well. When it comes to using Botox around the eyes most respectable doctors avoid this region. Why? Because it is so easy for you to walk around with a contorted look on your face. If you freeze those muscles you would look almost clown like or super sad. Neither of which probably appeal to you.
It needs to be noted that there are no medical procedures that are side effect free. The potential of something happening is always there. Botox is no exception. That is why it is so alarming that many consumers may find themselves at a friends home for a Botox home party. Getting injections to remove wrinkles, that could very well cost them their lives. Deaths have been linked to this treatment.
The Unspoken Botox Problem
Part of the problem is because this product is marketed everywhere you look. In America, people are obsessed with beauty and looking young is glorified. You should look your best for sure, but at what cost? And is the cost worth it.
Whenever a person smitten with the desire to look as young as possible, gets a drug like this, bad things are bound to happen, and they have. Unfortunately, many of the beauticians are not as educated as a doctor is. They have not had the thousands of hours of anatomy and physiology. They don’t know what to do when a person has an allergic reaction or worse yet when they fall into an anaphylactic shock from the injection, or the needle was dirty or who knows what else. This is a very high risk game when you have your local salon aesthetician inject you with Botox or anything else for that matter.
In conclusion, it would seem unwise and imprudent to have a known poison injected into your body by anyone, doctor or beautician doesn’t it? Wrinkles injections with Botox or some other material is just not on the same scale a perm and a cut with styling is it?
This is a serious option that is best left to doctors, dermatologists and those who have been trained to know the signs and how to treat people when getting injection. It is no different than when getting an allergy injection. You normally have to take in the injection and wait around for 30 minutes. You cannot come in, get the shot and drive away. Why? Because people have had reactions to the injections, some even have died outside of the doctors care. They had already left the doctors office feeling “fine.”
There you have it. The effectiveness of wrinkle injections may be quit high, but you also must consider the true cost. In addition to the economic cost. Only by understanding the risks, rewards or benefits should you then consider taking in this procedure after seeing a doctor. Until then, why not try the anti wrinkles oil, lotion and creams. They work to, just not as fast.
