People are always very particular about their looks and are ready to undergo all kinds of treatments for getting a picture perfect face and a shapely body. Many of the public figures look younger because they have treated their skin and made the skin look young. The age old methods for getting a young and glowing skin is to massage the skin with herbal oils and creams. They help a lot in maintaining the texture of the skin. But nowadays people are very busy and they hardly get any time to massage with oil and wait for half an hour before having a bath. As a result, people start getting wrinkles on their face and hands much before they are aged. One of the most popular treatments for wrinkles and saggy skin is to treat with a chemical called Botox. It is a highly poisonous substance and is made from the bacterium Clostridium Botulinum. Botox treatment for cost that range from Rs.50000 to 1 lakh or more is available in many of the clinics and Medispas. Since the face is the most important part of one’s body and also the exposed part, Botox treatment for face is most common. Face is the first part of your body to get wrinkles, especially on the sides of the eyes, forehead and between the brows. The cheek also sags down with age. Botox treatment involves injection of Botox in small quantities on the affected area. Botox is a neurotoxin and temporarily paralyze the muscles, reducing the use of the muscles in that area and thus reducing wrinkle formation. About 24 to 72 hours is needed for the drug to get activated and once it is activated, the wrinkles on your skin get cleared gradually. The effect of the drug lasts for about 3 to 6 months. Nowadays, even teenage girls are getting Botox treatments, although it is not much encouraged by the doctors and dermatologists. They approach the doctors and dermatologists for treating the laughter lines, frown lines between their brows and forehead etc. Age is not the deciding factor in Botox treatment. Just like the teenagers, senior citizens also approach the dermatologists for Botox treatment. One of the doctors who does Botox treatment says that he had done the treatment of a lady who was 86 years old. Botox treatment for cost depends on the area where the treatment is done and the number of sittings required. Before undergoing Botox treatment for face you have to consult your doctor and discuss all your problems and take advice from him. If you are taking any medicine regularly that too is to be said as some medicines may adversely affect the treatment. Botox treatment may also cause some side effects, which you have to be well aware of.
