If you’ve ever watched a celebrity red carpet show, then you probably have some idea of what Botox Frisco TX can do. Though Botox can be used for a variety of medical reasons like headaches and excessive sweating, its most common use, far and away, is for cosmetic purposes like smoothing furrowed brows and eliminating smile lines. If you’re considering Botox to enhance and improve your appearance, you should know that there are some botox considerations that will influence the effectiveness of treatment for you:
Basically, you have two types of wrinkles on your face – static and dynamic. Static wrinkles are the kind you can see all the time, even when your face is resting. Dynamic wrinkles are wrinkles that appear when you move your face, like those lines that appear around your eyes when you smile or on your forehead when you furrow your brow. When your face is resting, dynamic wrinkles disappear. Botox works by blocking muscles from moving so it is only effective for dynamic wrinkles, not static wrinkles. Botox injected around static muscles wouldn’t have any effect on them since no muscle movement is involved makes them appear. With long-term use, Botox can keep shallow static wrinkles from becoming deeper; but the best solution, generally, for static wrinkles are hyaluronic acid-based facial fillers like Restylane or Juvederm.
Not every syringe of Botox contains the same concentration of Clostridium botulinum Type A neurotoxin complex. Botox is shipped to your physician vacuum-dried in airless vials and must be reconstituted with a sterile saline solution before it can be injected into your face. The dilution per vial can vary between 1 and 10 milliliters of saline and depends on the physician or practitioner and what they hope to achieve with different concentrations of Botox. Some physicians use more diluted Botox on some areas and more concentrated Botox on others, depending on their experience each patient’s response. Often, less reputable practitioners regularly “water down” Botox to make it stretch and that can greatly reduce the effectiveness and the results of Botox treatments.
As with any invasive procedure, the person performing the procedure matters a lot. You want to get your Botox treatments from a physician – preferably a dermatologist or cosmetic surgeon – who is trained in anatomy, is board-certified and who maintains a respected and professionally-run practice. Never allow yourself to be injected with Botox in a non-medical setting like at a home “Botox party” or in the mall. These settings are likely not going to be hygienic or have proper storage for the Botox and an unskilled injector will not know exactly where and how much of the solution to inject.
