When it comes to enhancing the cosmetic appearance of the skin, botox injections have become an everyday treatment. Not only is treatment safe and effective, it is also extremely affordable, making more and more people opt for this treatment today. A small amount of 'stigma' still seems to be attached to botox injections though, and it is evident when someone has had botox treatment because the change is visible.
Discreet or 'baby' botox injections are available these days, however. Here we shall take a look at this briefly.
What is baby botox?
While botox treatment improves the appearance of lines and wrinkles, people who receive botox injections like to keep 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. On the other hand baby botox is aimed at treating just a few lines and wrinkles while preserving certain natural expression lines.
What does baby botox treatment target?
Crow's feet (fine lines and wrinkles seen at the corner of the eyes), frown lines, and a few wrinkles on the forehead are the target of most baby botox treatments. Areas that are not injected include those such as under the eyes. The eyebrow may also be injected to help open up the eyes a bit more, and this can have remarkable effects on overall appearance of the patient. 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. Confidence levels are also a lot higher as their natural look is preserved as some of the common wrinkles are still present.
Baby botox injection risks
The risks with baby botox injections are the same as the ones seen with regular botox, as the nature of the injection given does not change. 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. Allergic reactions may occur to components within the botox injection but these are rare and there are hardly any reported cases of severe reactions.
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.
