Can Botox® reduce the signs of aging?

‘Wrinkles should merely indicate where smiles have been’ Mark Twain 1897.

 

The use of Botox® is increasingly being used by doctors, dentists and nurses as a very popular beauty procedure to provide and maintain a more youthful appearance.

 

It can produce a non surgical face lift without actually ‘going under the knife’, thus it can reduce the signs of aging without the time, worry or expense of surgery. It can be used to Lift Brows, reduce Crows feet and relax Lip Lines and reduce excessive frown and forehead worry lines and improve the ‘turkey neck’.

 

It is one of the most researched and safest procedures and was originally used by the medical profession to treat certain facial disorders such as ‘cross eyes’ or uncontrolled blinking. 

 

It can now also be used for the treatment of excessive underarm sweating, headaches and pain management.

 

The preventative effect of the Botox® injections is also now very much appreciated. It really can improve a person’s quality of life. It has also been described as the ‘Penicillin for self esteem’. It was noted in use on identical twins that one that did not have the treatment appeared to have aged more than the other.

 

The fact is that people are now working until they are much older and they want to look fresher and not tired and groggy and  this procedure can provide this.

 

It has been quoted that before the age of forty you have the face that God gave you, after 40 you have the face you made yourself and now with Botox® you can maintain that face the way you have always wanted to.
