Botox is one of the leading plastic surgery procedures in the world – and for good reason. It’s a nearly painless procedure that requires no recovery downtime, and the treatments are a safe, effective way to eliminate lines and wrinkles, and help you maintain a smooth, youthful-looking complexion.
In addition to helping treat and prevent brow lines, frown lines, crow’s feet, and other types of lines and wrinkles, Botox can also be used in a few other surprising ways:
It can offer the temporary effects of a more invasive brow or forehead lift. Depending on where the injections are placed, Botox can help to temporary lift the areas of the forehead and brow, creating a smoother, less tired appearance – all without the pain and cost-commitment of a full-blown surgical procedure.
It may help treat chronic migraines. The FDA approved Botox as a treatment for chronic migraines back in 2010. Treatments are usually given over the course of 12 weeks, but in some cases can offer up to 3 months of relief from painful symptoms. Your doctor or headache specialist can help you determine if Botox is a viable treatment option for your type of migraine.
It not only treats, but may also help prevent wrinkles. While Botox is a highly effective way to treat existing wrinkles, it may also help to prevent new wrinkles from forming.
It could help in the treatment of excessive sweating. Botox has also been FDA-approved to help treat excessive sweating, thanks to ability to block the chemical messengers that “turn on” sweat glands.
