Botox injections can save wrinkles for almost a year, but sometimes the result of the procedure is unexpected. Negative effects of Botox can be a doctor's mistake, or an individual reaction to an active substance. Before deciding on injections of beauty, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with possible complications.
What caused the effects of Botox injections?
We dreamed that we would look younger before our eyes, and as a result turned into the resemblance of Renee Zellweger? Unfortunately, the negative effects of Botox are almost irreversible. That is why before the procedure, you need to assess the possible risks.
Botox is not as harmless as cosmetologists say. It is a neurotoxin, which is a product of the life of bacteria that cause botulism. Getting into the body, this poison paralyzes the muscles. The skin above the immobilized muscle, indeed, is smoothed, wrinkles do not appear exactly until the body can cope with the poison.
The action of the drug can last from six months to a year, during this time the cut muscles remain paralyzed. This is what causes the main danger - the atrophy of the facial muscles. As a result, muscles and skin lose their tone, become inactive and creep down. The so-called ptosis develops.
At the same time, the skin above the paralyzed muscle is by no means younger, it is weaned from activity and receives less nutrients as a result of metabolic disturbances. Imagine the horror of a woman who, one year after the injection, woke up aged 20 years! Botox action ceased, muscles began to work in the previous regime, and the skin simply did not have time to adapt to the changed conditions. The smooth face was replaced by folds, pohlesche, than at sharieja.
In order to delay this moment as much as possible, cosmetologists remind patients: do not delay the repeated course of injections! As soon as you feel that the muscles restore mobility, block them again. The only problem is that over time, the body develops a habit and the effect of injections becomes weaker and weaker each time.
The consequences of Botox 10 years after the first use of the drug look truly frightening. Sagged eyelids, a shapeless face shape, immobilized eyebrows and all this - accompanied by wrinkles. The force of gravity has not been canceled by anyone, so even with paralyzed muscles, the skin gradually slides down with age. What to do? Give preference to more modern methods of rejuvenation. For example, injections of hyaluronic acid .
