Botox Myths 1

Dr Hennessy botox training Liverpool would like are readers to be more aware about Botox. Botox stands-out amongst the most famous of all non surgical treatments for a mixture of reasons, yet there are still a couple of fallacies about what it does and doesn’t do, and who are the best possible applicants. Just you and your doctor know whether Botox is an appropriate treatment for you — yet before you get to that step, we can help scatter a portion of the myths out there! Here is the last of our top five…

The first and most common myths that the we hear at botox training Manchester is that the optimum time to get botox is when lines actually appear.

Los Angeles Plastic Surgeon Grant Stevens clarifies, Botox is being used more and more frequently by people trying to do preventative treatments. Waiting until lines become etched into the skin means it’s much more difficult to smooth their appearance again.” He adds that Botox is often used for lines and wrinkles formed by muscle movements like scowling, squinting, and raising eyebrows. “Often by starting Botox preventatively, people and their muscles can actually learn to not make certain faces and expressions and contribute to worsening their lines. By not making certain expressions in the future, or making them less often, you may actually need less Botox or need it less often.”

Botox Myths 2

Dr Hennessy botox training London would like are readers to be informed about Botox, the myths and the standard concerns of many botox users. As Botox stands-out as the most famous non surgical treatment there are still more than a few falsehoods relating to best practice and common misconceptions, and who are the best possible applicants. Just you and your doctor know whether Botox is an appropriate treatment for you — yet before you get to that step, we can help scatter a portion of the myths out there! Here is the penultimate of our continuing top five series…

Dr Hennessy Botox training has heard that once you’ve started with Botox and then you stop, it will make your wrinkles worse.

Infact that’s simply not true, they’ll just revert back to the way they were before. Toronto Dermatologist Martie Gidon explains, “Botox will prevent your wrinkles from worsening while you keep up with your treatments. If you decide to stop having Botox treatments, you will slowly lose the relaxing effect of Botox and will resume the normal development of wrinkles with movement. Botox will not make wrinkles worse.” And remember, Botox results are not permanent. Los Angeles Plastic Surgeon Steven Svehlak says Botox results last typically last three to four months. “For those who get injected at regular intervals over time, however, the results can sometimes last a little bit longer, since the muscles have been immobilized for a long period and can atrophy. That said, once Botox use is discontinued, they will slowly return to how they were initially, prior to treatment.”

Uses For Botox – Gummy Smile Reduction

This series of posts looks at the less commonly seen advanced uses of Botox. Dr Hennessy Botox training Manchester have seen many different procedures using Botox. These procedures that we’ll detail later through this series of posts may be worth trying if you have any of these more surprising issues. Since Botox is relatively cheap and completely reversible.

So what is a ‘Gummy Smile’?

A gummy smile happens to certain people when they smile. Their upper lip elevates too far above their upper teeth, exposing gums and producing an unattractive smile. This may happen due to several causes. One of the causes is hyperactive muscle which elevates the upper lip. Occasionally, the gummy smile is also aggravated by a thin upper lip that further contributes to the problem by exposing the upper gum even more.

So what is ‘Gummy Smile’ reduction?

Botox training London understands that botos is a very good choice for patients that suffer “gummy smile”. We know people who have had very good results with judicious use of Botox to improve this condition. You need to go to an experienced Facial Plastic Surgeon that has had injected a gummy smile in the past to have your best results. You must also understand that Botox may lower the upper lip to not be able to show the gum line when you smile. There is a risk of too much lowering; affecting your singing or playing of a wind instrument.

According to other technical Botox practitioners. Botox will paralyze the muscle of animation and inhibit your smile. A true gummy smile is the result of vertical maxillary excess. In order to correct this, you may need a maxillary impaction to reduce the overall height of the maxilla.

Say Goodbye To Sweaty Feet With New Botox Treatment

The origin of smelly feet can often be sweaty feet, and while this is not something abnormal in itself, hyperhidrosis is the medical term for the condition of excessive sweating of the feet, leaving your socks constantly damp and sweaty. Although the hands have just as many sweat glands as the feet (each has around a quarter of a million), the feet can start to smell because of the bacteria that can thrive inside the socks and shoes. When the socks and shoes become warm and damp, bacteria start to feed on it, excreting a type of acid that gives off that familiar foot smell.

Botulinum toxin, or Botox, was approved for the treatment of excessive underarm sweating in 2004, and dermatologists are hoping to be able to use it for excessive foot sweating in the not too distant future. Botox works by paralysing muscles, which is how it gives the face a smoother appearance, eliminating wrinkles. In the treatment of hyperhidrosis, Botox is used to block certain nerves that send messages to the sweat glands, thus reducing the amount of sweat produced.

If you think you may be suffering from hyperhidrosis, book yourself appointment with a dermatologist, who may refer you to a practitioner with aesthetic training or botox training Manchester who will be able to discuss the available Botox options with you. Remember that Botox can be uncomfortable and it may take several treatments to see any results.

Botox Approved For Bladder Control

Following a similar approval in Europe earlier this month, US regulators have now approved the popular wrinkle treatment Botox for treating a specific type of overactive bladder problem. It will now be legal to offer Botox as a treatment for loss of bladder control resulting from damage to the nervous system, such as spinal cord injury and multiple sclerosis. Experts hope that the move will pave the way for the wider use of Botox for a variety of bladder problems.

While approximately half of the annual $1.5billion sales of Botox go towards reducing wrinkles, it is also used to treat migraine headaches, hay fever, upper limb spasticity, eye muscle problems and eyelid spasms and neck pain caused by cervical dystonia. The drug, whose active ingredient is a toxin that blocks nerve signals, can now be injected into the bladder to treat patients who have suffered a loss of bladder control because of nervous system damage resulting from conditions including spinal cord injury or multiple sclerosis.

The condition known as overactive bladder causes inability to control urination, urgent need to urinate and frequent urination, but one injection of Botox can be enough to treat the symptoms for up to nine months, by controlling the muscle spasms and increasing bladder capacity. Always ensure you used an approved practitioner with Cosmetic nurse training from Botox training Manchester.
