While most men and women tend to think negatively towards BOTOX®, recent studies have shown that there is a more positive outcome.
For one, women who have considered BOTOX®, say they would solely do it for the improvement of their self-esteem. If you look good, you feel good; it’s a policy most women abide to. The main function of BOTOX® is to block nerve receptors i.e.: Slowing the aging process by paralyzing the muscles, producing a less wrinkled you. Men of the 21st century have even benefited from procedures such as BOTOX®, which assists in the reduction of muscle spasms (As they are more prone to them).

BOTOX®is not only limited to reducing wrinkles around the eyes but, can also make the T-zone on your face, fuller. BOTOX® is not to be confused with dermal fillers, which smoothes out unwanted wrinkles and folds - not paralyzing them. Needles smaller than your average injections are used for injecting BOTOX®, making pain more bearable. This can be compared to tweezing your eyebrows. Depending on the thickness of your skin and ethnicity, the BOTOX® treatment may have to be repeated every 3 to 6 months. Compared to ordinary, under the needle and thread surgeries, the scarring from BOTOX® treatments are minimal. Not much time is required for this procedure, a good 30 minutes will do. However, as much as we’d like to think that BOTOX® has no side effects, there are reports of minor bruising and headaches. |

BOTOX® is also used as a foot filler to protect the foot nerves and tissue. BOTOX® is injected into the painful area and makes walking around in heels less painful and bearable because it acts like a built in foot pad. Doctors in the UK have had numerous ladies in their 40's for the "foot filler" BOTOX® jab.
Besides reducing wrinkles and protecting the foot nerves, BOTOX® is also used to treat excessive sweating. Once injected into the armpits BOTOX® reduces sweating, for this treatment you need to consult with a professional who is properly trained to inject BOTOX® namely, a Hyperhidrosis Professional. Doctors in America are also experimenting with injecting BOTOX® into the chest area to enhance women's bust size.
