Looking Younger Has Never Been Easier

By Devon R. Monache


Botox, injected 5.6 million times last year, has become the Kleenex of the field - the brand name so familiar that people think it is the generic term. Its ease of use and consistently good cosmetic results have made Botox stand out from all the competitors. Frankly speaking, there is Botox and then there is everyone else. Botox is classed as a non-invasive procedure. There are no incisions made, no anaesthetic needed and no recovery time is required after the treatment.

The Myths Abound

Even though Botox is so widely used, and with so many great results, there still exists a kind of a prejudice against the brand and those that seek out the procedure. Because it is a beauty treatment, it is often portrayed negatively in news reports. Frozen faces of celebrities or the most extreme examples are often paraded out as examples of Botox as an extreme lifestyle choice. But these are often wrongly associated with Botox. But Botox in the hands of a competent and practiced physician, simply does not produce those bad effects. Natural expressions should not be affected negatively in any way, as long as an experienced physician is administering the treatment.

Get Rid of Frown Lines

One of the key target areas for Botox is the treatment of the frown lines between the eyebrows. It's not surprising why people have picked this area as problem; reducing frown lines gives you a much younger appearance.

When you inject the frown muscle with an adequate dose of Botox Cosmetic, it stops moving. So, in effect, the Botox makes the frown lines disappear. The frown lines disappear because the frown muscle can no longer contract and thus can no longer wrinkle up the overlying skin.

Eliminating frown lines with Botox is one of the most common of the cosmetic treatments. It's been estimated that 11.8 million treatments have been performed for frown lines since approved by the FDA in 2002 for this specific area. Follow up studies have shown that greater than 90% of people who get Botox are satisfied with the results.

Despite their nature, it is not a difficult process to treat frown lines. Botox is injected directly into the muscles that cause the frown lines to occur. The treatment itself usually takes less than 5 minutes to perform. There is no anesthesia and the discomfort is minimal.

The safety record is impeccable. It is manufactured under very strict conditions and it is a medical pharmaceutical. Botox is no longer reserved only for the rich and famous. Though it is widely known that your favourite actor or actress has probably received a treatment, the same can be said of your local teacher or soccer coach.
