A Low Key Approach To Botox
By Denise Sendora
Botox injections have become an everyday treatment when it comes to enhancing the cosmetic appearance of the skin. More and more people opt for this treatment today not just because it is safe and effective, but because it is also very affordable. It is fairly obvious if a person has had botox treatment because the change is visibly evident, and there still appears to be a small amount of 'stigma' attached to botox injections.
Discreet injections, called 'baby' botox, are available now though. Here we shall take a look at this briefly.
What is baby botox?
While reaping the benefits of botox treatment on their lines and wrinkles, people who undergo botox injection treatments prefer to preserve their natural look. Current botox treatments are aimed at getting rid of almost all lines and wrinkles on the face, and can result in a look that can to some appear unnatural. Alternatively, baby botox treats only a few lines and wrinkles, while keeping some natural expression lines.
What does baby botox treatment target?
Mostly, baby botox treatments treat a few wrinkles on the forehead, as well as crow's feet (fine lines and wrinkles seen at the corner of the eyes) and frown lines. Areas that are not injected include those such as under the eyes. One area that can have remarkable effects on overall appearance of the patient is the eyebrow - it may be injected to help open up the eyes. In summary, the natural look is kept because the treatments are strategically limited, but all the benefits of botox are delivered.
Advantages
As is the case with botox injections, patients report a significant improvement in their look and feel a lot younger following baby botox treatments. As their natural look is preserved because some common wrinkles are still present, confidence levels are also a lot higher.
Risks with baby botox injections
Regular botox treatment poses the same risks as baby botox because the nature of the injection given is the same. Patients report mild bleeding and bruising at the injection site; this goes away without leaving any scar tissue. Infections are rare as the procedure is performed under sterile conditions. There are hardly any reported cases of severe reactions, but allergic reactions could occur to components within the botox injection, although these are rare.
Conclusion
Baby botox is becoming more and more popular due to the fact that it preserves the patient's natural look, while getting rid of most of the fine wrinkles on the face. No doubt many patients may prefer this treament in future.
