MUSCLE & WRINKLE RELAXING INJECTIONS

One of the most effective and popular cosmetic treatments is the administration of a muscle relaxant called botulinum toxin type A - commonly known as botox - to treat lines and wrinkles, hypertrophy of the masseter muscle, headaches and neck pain by causing a temporary paralysis of muscles lasting for up to 4 months. Muscle relaxants are also used to diminish the intensity of excessive sweating. It is a prescription medication and a safe procedure so long as it is administered by a trained and experienced practitioner.

Facial muscles are dynamic and move expressing our emotions, during speech or movement of eyes and neck. Facial may appear as early as 25 years of age and worsen with age. This is caused by skin ageing and over expressive movement of the facial muscles whilst smiling, raising eyebrows, frowning, whistling or laughing.

Successful of botulinum toxin depends on the dose injected and the skills and experience of the injector, it requires knowledge of pharmacology and the anatomy of the facial muscles to assure a safe and desirable outcome.

Botulinum toxin is injected using disposable, syringes with very fine needles into specific points on the face corresponding with muscles which movement causes wrinkles. Dosages may be adjusted depending on the strength of muscles. In some cases, higher dose may have to be administered which is more common in men.

The result will start being noticeable within 7 days after treatment and will last up to 4 months. Successful treatment will result in a relaxed and fresh look without any frozen facial expressions or loss of movement.

The depressor septi muscle is a small muscle on the underside of the nasal septum, which is responsible for lowering the tip of the nose and constricting the nostrils.
