If you ask most people what Botox is used for, they’ll tell you that it softens or eliminates lines around the eyes and deals with creases between them too.<\/p>\n
Despite Botox being used for years for many other cosmetic purposes, many people don’t realize just how far this Allergan product reaches into the cosmetic treatment industry.<\/p>\n
The Many Uses Of Botox For Cosmetic Purposes<\/strong><\/p>\n
Today, medical professionals are using Botox to provide a temporary facelift. The right amount of Botox injected into just the right locations can make the jaw look more shapely and youthful, lift the nose tip up and reduce forehead wrinkles for as long as 3 months.<\/p>\n
That’s right: the nose can be improved in appearance with Botox. The nose sags with age, but Botox can lift the nose, taking years off the face in a matter of minutes. The injection is done at the base of the nose, releasing some of the hold of the depressor muscle that causes the nose to sag down. Once this is accomplished, the improvement can be dramatic.<\/p>\n
Dramatic impact is also possible from tightening the jowls. As the jawline ages, it becomes less defined. Botox can be used along the jawbone muscles to pull the skin up and make the jowls and jawlines more crisp and defined.<\/p>\n
Some people are even having Botox instead of dermal filler around their lips. While fillers add volume to the lips to make them look plumper, Botox injected along the top edge of the top lip can cause the edge to turn out slightly. This results in a natural-looking out-turning of the lip, which enhances volume and adds to youthfulness.<\/p>\n
Even More Uses You May Not Know About<\/strong><\/p>\n
Perhaps the uses above make sense to you since they’re all about relaxing and tightening muscles. But that’s not all Botox can do.<\/p>\n
Did you know that Botox can help manage acne by reducing oil production? While a massive amount of the product would be necessary to use Botox as the only treatment for problem acne, it can help in the treatment of specific areas. Very small amounts of Botox injected shallowly can reduce oil in specific locations without impacting facial expressions. When used along with other treatments, it can make a real difference, especially on the forehead.<\/p>\n
Botox is also used to reduce the lines that develop between some women’s breasts. Doctors inject the pecs, and the lines ease away \u2013 just as facial wrinkles do.<\/p>\n
Plus, people who feel bad often look bad too. Botox can help reduce migraines, reduce symptoms from excessive sweating and make teeth grinding and clenching more bearable. Even your hair can look better when your forehead and scalp are treated to reduce sweat. That means an expensive hairstyle that usually lasts only a single day can last days after treatment to reduce sweat. It may seem insignificant to some, but those who always need to look their best may find this benefit appealing.<\/p>\n
Still More To Come<\/strong><\/p>\n
Researchers aren’t through studying Botox either. These uses for Botox to make you look and feel younger aren’t the only ones known, and more options are being explored all the time. Doctors, scientists and others are working together to expand the usage of Botox to even more cosmetic and medical uses.<\/p>\n
If you’re a medical professional and you’d like to add Botox injections to your practice, you need to explore the Dentox course schedule. In-person and online training is available to fit every schedule. When you add Botox and other injectables to your practice, you’re boosting your bottom line while enhancing the satisfaction of many of your patients. What could be better?<\/p>\n
