Why We Spend So Much On Botox
By Marla Nordina
We all know how important physical first impressions are in today's superficial society. People will do practically anything to try to look younger, like they did many years earlier. Wrinkles and lines on the face are an unsightly and unwelcome sign of ageing, and many people are turning to the idea of getting injections of botox in order to help renew skin that is getting older looking.
Plastic surgery used to be the only real choice when someone wanted to alter their appearance to look younger, and this more drastic option is more of a commitment. Procedures would take hours to perform and weeks to heal. Sometimes it could take more than a month to have the full benefit to be clear. But that era has now started to fade away, thanks to botox. Recent studies in 2012 show that less invasive treatments such as botox injections are increasing, and more invasive plastic surgery is being chosen less often, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
The reason?
Well, for the middle class Jane Doe, botox injections can still bring out the beauty in them without emptying the bank account. The popularity of botox is increasing because it's safe, inexpensive, and makes a significant improvement on the overall appearance of individuals, and costly plastic surgery is less appealing.
It should be noted that people with a larger amount of disposable income would be more likely to get botox, so it is more popular in those circles. Celebrity papers have an article almost every day about some celebrity who has undergone botox.
What factors made botox to well-known?
There is no doubt that botox has pretty much taken the world of cosmetic surgery by storm. The ease of administration, the absence of in-hospital stay for the procedure, its effects and its low cost make it an attractive option when it comes to treating fine lines and wrinkles. Not only do people use these treatments for aesthetic reasons, they are also being used to help blepharospasm, spastic paraplegias, and other kinds of muscle spasms.
The effects can last for months and are obvious and recognisable. When a patient is highly satisfied with the results of their procedure, they are much more likely to promote the procedure to their acquaintances and other people they know.
Botox makes such a huge difference in the lives of those who get the treatments that they are visibly happier and feel more confident, and because of this, more and more people are giving botox a try.
