Botox

There is nothing wrong with the natural process of aging. But the thing is that as we age, our skin becomes less elastic and starts to lose its volume. Add to this other factors such as genes and sun damage, one can easily develop early signs of aging that most likely occur in certain areas like around the eyes and the forehead. While they can be quite normal, wrinkles and fine lines make you look a lot older than you are. Fortunately, a very effective cosmetic treatment has become widely accessible in San Marcos.

Info

Botox is a invasive treatment that is specially designed to smooth out existing wrinkles and prevent them from coming back. It has more cosmetic applications than it used to be, proving its magical capabilities. So, what is Botox all about? It is from Botulinum Toxin, from which the name derives, which is directly injected into the targeted area. It helps relax and ease muscle tension due to repetitive movement, thus reducing the appearance of your fine lines and wrinkles. It is very effective that with just one treatment, it can reduce some lines along your forehead. It is safe and proven to be great at restoring your youthful look.

It Works Wonders

In addition to helping eradicate those frown lines, botox also works to minimize crow’s feet (lines around your eyes) and even those tiny crinkly bunny lines along your nose. It can also be used to soften the vertical bands that may start to show in your neck by relaxing the muscles in this area. As cosmetic technologies continue to improve, there are more and more applications for Botox, including the following:

 

  • Soften the pebble-like chin contractions 
  • Relax and smoothens the corners of the mouth
  • Provide brow lift or balance through strategic injections
  • Used in conjunction with other dermal fillers

Works Great With Other Treatments

Contrary to popular belief, getting a Botox won’t prevent you from making natural facial expressions because it only temporarily relaxes your muscles. It means you can still smile as wide as you want, frown as much as you feel, and look genuinely surprised without having creases and folds. When used on its own, Botox provides outstanding wrinkle-reducing effects but it can also be used with dermal fillers, giving you better and longer-lasting results. The skincare experts at Beauty Lounge can suggest what other potential treatments and services are best to go along with the benefits of Botox to your skin, making you look so much younger and healthier.

The Best Candidate For Botox

One great advantage of Botox is that it can effectively treat signs of aging for both sexes. Since it is non-invasive, it is a safe treatment for virtually every skin type and ethnicity. So, anyone who wants to treat their fine lines and wrinkles can try this treatment. But the best candidate would be someone who is in good health and knows what Botox is all about and knows what to expect from it. 

The Botox Process

Just like with other cosmetic procedures, Botox starts from a consultation with one one of our experts. A one-on-one consultation is very crucial for the patient to achieve the best results in the safest way possible. During this personalized meeting, our professional expert will ask you important questions that pertain to your medical history and anything about your skin.

You will then be told about the treatment and what you may expect from getting it. More importantly, the consultation is done to know if Botox fits for your skincare needs. If it does, then a personalized treatment program will be uniquely made for you and then the actual procedure can then commence right after the consultation

The actual treatment takes about less than 30 minutes to finish, from start to the end of the procedure. The expert will examine the targeted areas to be injected with Botox. While the procedure involves an injection, it is generally no painful with just a bit of discomfort brought about by a mild pinch and pressure from the syringe. For your complete comfort, a numbing cream can be used to apply on the areas to be injected.

Once you are ready, our skincare expert will inject the Botox into your skin through very fine needles which may give you the sensation of pinpricks. And if you are like most of our Botox patients, you can directly go back to your normal activity instantly. In fact, many are surprised and even amazed just how quick and convenient it is for the treatment to finish. So, you really have nothing to be afraid of.  

The Botox Results You Can Expect

The results of Botox San Marcos vary significantly from one person to another but the effects are pretty much the same. That is Botox can address the specific skin problem the patient wanted to eradicate. Moreover, it is also important to emphasis that while you can return back to your normal activities, there are also some minor side effects to expect.

As the toxin is being injected into your skin, a slight bump or redness might occur at the treated area. However, this must be gone in a few hours. In some cases, a little bruising may also happen but it’s pretty normal.

When it comes to the full effects of Botox, you may have to wait for about 2 to 3 weeks until you can really see its benefits. However, you can already notice some initial results in just a few days after the procedure. As mentioned, this cosmetic treatment is only temporary with the results that usually last for about 3 to 4 months. So, if you want to maintain the best results, a repeat treatment would be necessary to keep that rejuvenating look on your face.
