Botox offers a plethora of advantages. There are certain crucial strategies to get the most out of your Botox treatment, whether you want to rejuvenate your appearance, avoid signs of aging, or use it for medical concerns. Here are some suggestions of how to get the most out of your botox treatments:
Only go to a qualified medical practitioner for treatment.
Botox (Botulinum Toxin) is a prescription only medication that is supplied to qualified medical professionals from UK registered pharmacists. Each treatment is unique as it takes into account your individual anatomy. To avoid treatment blunders such as being injected illegitimate product, the frozen look or imbalanced outcomes, only go to medically qualified injectors such as a medical doctor, dentist or an NMC registered nurse.
Connect
Your consultation is the ideal moment to establish a mutually beneficial relationship with your injector. You should tell your practitioner about any medical history, medications or supplements you're taking because some of them may interact with your treatment. Talk about your aesthetic goals and what you want to get out of therapy. Clear communication helps in achieving the greatest outcomes.
Keep your hands away
After your treatment, avoid touching the treatment area. Remember that injection sites can get infected so keeping your hands away from the treated areas for at least 6 hours and do not apply any make up.
Keep your metabolic rate steady for the first 24-72 hours after treatment
Botox works by blocking certain messengers between nerve cells and muscles so that the muscles relax instead of contracting and wrinkling the skin. Anything that causes you to overheat, such as vigorous exercise, saunas, steam rooms, hot showers and alcohol drinks, can raise your metabolic rate which can inactivate the medication before it gets to work at its desired neuro - mascular site.
Stand Tall and Proud
Because Botox takes time to settle into place, don't lie down, recline, or bend excessively for four to six hours after your treatment. Although there are no long-term effects for lying down too soon after your Botox treatment, we encourage that you stay upright to allow the Botox to perform its magic.
When the Botox Magic Kicks In
The medication takes some time to work. Some people can start to see some effects as early as 3 days after treatment but full effects can be judged at a 10-14 days review appointment.
Keep Up the Magic
Regular Botox treatments might assist you in achieving the finest long-term outcomes.Botox can be effective for 3-4 months after which a repeat treatment would be needed.
