Did you ever wonder why so many people today are receiving Botox treatments? Well, you can blame it largely on the more intense sun that we all seeing these days.
Dr Mariusz of Star Cosmetic Medicine in Sydney, Australia, says that as a result of this more intense sunlight, our skin is aging more prematurely, and we are also caused to squint more, which causes wrinkling around the eyes.
According to Dr Gajewski, skin aging has three central causes. First off, the collagen and elastin fibres that keep your skin smooth and firm are damaged by exposure to the sun. Secondly, the modifications to skin texture and pigmentation caused by UV rays. Lastly, there is the apparent movement of muscles under the surface of the skin which leads to an increase in the lines that show on the outer surface of it.
The first two of these three issues can be largely prevented by the use of good quality sun protection, but that solution has no effect on the the third issue. To repair the damage done by the sun to our facial muscle movements, Botox treatment is required.
Botox injections can be had on all areas of the face, but the most frequents ones are the “frown point” between the eyebrows, the outer corner of the eyes, and the upper part of the forehead. Depending on your age, and how much time you spend in the sun, you may have already noticed these problem areas on your own face.
For some people, the lines and wrinkles on their face show permanently, whilst others are slightly better off in that they only appear when they make certain facial expressions. Unfortunately though, once lines and wrinkles start to develop they will only get worse.
Having botox injections to improve your looks and self confidence is a relatively simple procedure to undergo. A doctor will makes a series of injections into the affected areas, and you can go home the same day. How many rounds of injections you need is dependent on how many, and how deep, your lines and wrinkles are; if you only suffer mildly from them, you may only need one lot of injections.
You do not have to concerned about side effects, as they are minor at worst. The most common problems are temporary bruising, swelling and pinprick pain at the injection site, explains Dr Mariusz Gajewski. They are uncomfortable, rather than painful, and last for just a day or two after having a set of botox injections.
The only real problem with botox injections is when they are over used, so act with caution. Having the right amount of treatment will leave you looking fresher and revitalized, but have too much and you will look somewhat plastic and inexpressive.
If you would like Botox injections, remember that you need someone with the expertise and experience to determine where and how much to inject. Dr Mariusz Gajewski of Sydney’s Star Cosmetic Medicine suggests asking your GP or dermatologist for a recommendation.
