Should you consider Botox® to reduce deep wrinkles? Many people are looking for a quick solution that will help them to get rid of the wrinkles that have been creeping up on them over the course of a lifetime. Although most people do not realize that through healthy skincare, sun protection and a health aging-well diet they can reduce the number of wrinkles they have.If you think you're past the stage of holistic approaches to aging, then maybe you might like the results you'll get from Botox®.What are Botox® injections?Botox® is administered through injections directly into the skin's under layers. Botox® helps by relaxing the facial muscles that are surrounding your wrinkles. This makes the wrinkles less noticeable. Because the muscles are relaxed, the skin lays smoother, allowing for fewer noticeable wrinkles there. The actual substance that is injected is botulinum toxin type A which is a purified and safe form of the toxin that causes botulism. The Botox® injections are not all that painful and are often considered to be a quick fix to the problem of wrinkles.Which areas of your face can be injected with Botox®?Botox® can be injected in several ways and will have the same effect in each area that it is used. The most common areas for them is at the corners of the eyes, the frown lines that run between your eyebrows and the bridge of your nose, your forehead and the wrinkle bands in the neck area.What you should know is that Botox® won't work if your wrinkles have been caused by sun damage. It also doesn't work on all wrinkles found in your face. Also, for some, the thickness of the skin and the type of skin that you have will effect how effective Botox® will be for you.Is Botox® the right thing for you? To find out if you qualify and if in fact it would be beneficial to your wrinkles, consider talking to a cosmetic dermatologist or a plastic surgeon. Remember that Botox® is a not a cure and that you will need to continue having the procedure done to keep the wrinkles at bay. Over time, it may not be as effective for you as more wrinkles develop. Nevertheless, many Canadian women and men are finding that Botox® is the perfect solution to their need for reducing wrinkles.You can search the web for information on treatments to reverse wrinkles or simply visit our site: mybeautymatch.com.
