Botox - From Cosmetic Surgeon's Clinic to Botox Parties
Few years back botox treatment in Chandigarh and Punjab area in India was limited to few clinics. Most of the patients were NRI's or the foreign national visiting this part of the India. Time has changed as not only the number of local patients is increased but also the concept of botox-parties or botox-brunches have emerged. The simplicity of the procedure has led to the phenomenon of the BOTOX® party -- modeled after old-fashioned Tupperware parties. It's good because the best work is done when patients are comfortable.
A procedure known as cosmetic denervation uses Botox™ injections to relax these facial muscles and keep them from contracting. After the procedure, the skin over the treated muscles remains smooth and unwrinkled whilst other, untreated, facial muscles contract in normal fashion, so your normal facial expressions are unaffected.
Botox injections have been used safely and effectively for over ten years to treat eye and nerve conditions. Each year, thousands of people receive these treatments for a variety of causes and it has become an increasingly popular treatment for reversing visible signs of aging. By smoothing out "dynamic" wrinkles, Botox treatments can give you a more youthful and pleasant appearance. These treatments, however, cannot improve wrinkles due to aging or sun damage, as these wrinkles are not caused by muscle contractions. Nor will the treatments improve sagging skin or take the place of a face lift.
Cosmetic denervation using Botox is a safe and simple procedure. Using a tiny needle, your surgeon will inject a small amount of the drug very carefully and precisely into several points on your face.
Because the needle is so fine and only a small amount of liquid is injected, the discomfort associated with the injections is minimal. No sedation or local anaesthetic is required and you can resume your normal activities at once. You can even drive yourself home or back to work. You should, however, avoid exercise for four hours after your treatment, as well as facial massage and any activity that requires you to bend over repeatedly. During this time you should also remain upright.
While Botox injections are an effective treatment for dynamic wrinkles, they are a temporary solution. The effects of the injections last from six months, so you will likely need to have injections about two times a year. How long the effects of treatment last varies from patient to patient, and the treatment may be less effective for people over 65 years of age. Early clinical studies indicate that the duration of treatment benefits increases over time, so you may require injections less frequently as time goes on.
The risk of side effects depends on the muscles that are injected. The most common side effect is bruising, which can be easily covered by make-up. In some cases, the Botox can migrate and cause temporary weakness in nearby muscles.
