What is Botox?
What is Botox used for?
Botox is one of the treatment methods used to eliminate wrinkles and lines in the skin. This method, which is used for both aesthetic and medical purposes, uses a bacterium called clostridium botulinum. Botox used for aesthetic purposes is applied to eliminate wrinkles that form on the skin due to factors such as environmental factors and age. This therapeutic method also has a protective feature. One of its effects is to prevent excessive sweating. It is also possible to prevent this problem thanks to its effect of blocking sweat glands.
How long does Botox last?
After the treatment is applied, its effect is observed within 48 to 72 hours. It shows its full effect within 10 to 14 days. When applied for wrinkles on the face, this treatment method, which has a lifespan of 6 months, extends its duration of effect to up to 1 year when performed regularly at periodic intervals. When applied for excessive sweating in the underarm area, its effect lasts for 10 to 12 months. Again, if it is applied again for the underarm area, its effects can be extended up to 16 to 18 months. The choice of clinic for this application for aesthetic and therapeutic purposes should be made carefully. Treatments not applied under hygienic conditions have a heavier price.
