Botox injections are now common practice to improve the skin's appearance. Not only is treatment safe and effective, it is also extremely affordable, making more and more people opt for this treatment today. It is fairly obvious if a person has had botox treatment because the change is visibly evident, and there still appears to be a small amount of 'stigma' attached to botox injections.
These days however, discreet or 'baby' botox injections are available. Here we shall take a look at this briefly.
Baby botox: what is it?
While reaping the benefits of botox treatment on their lines and wrinkles, people who undergo botox injection treatments prefer to preserve their natural look. Aimed at getting rid of almost all lines and wrinkles on the face, current botox treatments can result in a look that can to some appear unnatural. Alternatively, baby botox treats only a few lines and wrinkles, while keeping some natural expression lines.
What does baby botox treatment target?
In most cases, baby botox treatments are directed at treating crow's feet (fine lines and wrinkles seen at the corner of the eyes), frown lines and a few wrinkles on the forehead. Areas such as those under the eyes are not injected. One area that can have remarkable effects on overall appearance of the patient is the eyebrow - it may be injected to help open up the eyes. In a nutshell, treatments are strategically limited to only certain areas of the face, preserving the natural look while offering all the benefits that botox brings with it.
Advantages
After baby botox treatments, as is the case with botox injections, patients report a significant improvement in their look and feel a lot younger. Confidence levels are also a lot higher as their natural look is preserved as some of the common wrinkles are still present.
Risks of baby botox injections
The nature of the injection given does not change, so the risks with baby botox injections are the same as the ones seen with regular botox. 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
Because it preserves the patient's natural look, while getting rid of most of the fine wrinkles on the face, baby botox is becoming more and more popular. In the future, there is no doubt that this may become the preferred treatment by many patients.
