Aesthetic botulinum treatments
Aesthetic botulinum treatments are a popular and effective way to smooth out wrinkles and reduce the signs of ageing on the face. Botulinum, or more familiarly "botox", is often used to fade wrinkles and facial lines.
Botulinum is a natural protein that acts as a muscle relaxant. It prevents muscle contraction, which in turn helps to smooth out facial expression lines and reduce wrinkles. Botulinum also helps prevent the formation of new wrinkled lines.
The aesthetic effects of botulinum treatment are fast and often noticeable a few days after the treatment. The effect is at its highest a few weeks after the treatment. The duration of the treatment usually varies from a few months to even half a year, depending on for example an individual's metabolism and lifestyle.
It is important that botulinum treatments are performed only by trained professionals. The professional performing the treatment uses very small amounts of botulinum and carefully monitors the progress of the process. The most common side effects of botulinum are mainly related to the injection. There may be redness, swelling or bruising at the injection site, but these symptoms usually disappear quickly.
Aesthetic botulinum treatments are also easily adaptable to busy everyday life. They only require a short procedure and after that you can immediately return to your normal daily routine. It is recommended to avoid saunas, solariums, smoking and alcohol for a week. It is important to note that aesthetic botulinum treatments are not permanent. Their effect usually lasts from a few months to six months, depending on the individual.
