Botulinum toxin, commonly known as botox, is made to relax and relax the muscles that cause the appearance of wrinkles on our face. Because if we think of the muscles as an accordion, wrinkles are the indentations that occur as the muscles contract. Application to the right place, in the right dosage and with the right product, reduces the appearance of wrinkles without creating side effects or an unnatural appearance on the face. On the other hand, the application we call protective botox means getting botox before the wrinkles become established. Those who have lines on their face while making mimics and have no wrinkles when they are not, are ideal candidates for protective botox application. Because, as expected, we know that the lines become static over the years, that is, they become visible even when we are not making gestures. Therefore, it is not right to wait for the appearance of wrinkles on your face to get Botox, while there are medical facilities available.
Botulinum toxin is also beneficial for individuals with jaw tightening, pain associated with it, clarification in the jaw muscles, and those who have excessive sweating in the armpits, palms and soles. The average duration of effect is 6 months. With regular repetitive applications, the duration of activity usually increases.
There are many botulinum toxin products originating from different countries such as America, England, Korea and China in the market. In our clinic, Allergan Botox (USA) and Dysport (England) products are used.
In order to alleviate the feeling of pain during the procedure, the application area is anesthetized with anesthetic cream beforehand. The process takes about 10-15 minutes.
It is recommended to avoid the use of pain relievers, blood thinners, gingko biloba, garlic extract and alcohol 3 days before the procedure. It is recommended that you avoid sports activities that will cause you to sweat for 4 hours after the procedure, bending forward, using Turkish bath, sauna, making excessive gestures, not touching your face with water, cream, make-up during the day of the procedure, and not drinking alcohol for 2 days.
