Why some people use botox?

Use for Medical Treatment
Botox was first approved in 1989 to treat two eye muscle disorders–uncontrollable blinking (blepharospasm) and misaligned eyes (strabismus). In 2000, the toxin was approved to treat a neurological movement disorder that causes severe neck and shoulder contractions, known as cervical dystonia.

Excessive Sweating or profuse sweating can be cured with Botox injection and dry sol but these medicinal treatments for Excessive Sweating cannot undo the physiological damage that it does to an individual.

Botox has been available for over a decade and has been used to treat more than 1 million patients with various conditions, including spasticity and movement disorders. With FDA approval, the United States joins more than 20 other countries that have already approved the use of Botox for excessive sweating. Botox can prevent sweating for months by blocking the release of acetylcholine from the nerve endings – that cause the glands to produce sweat. Botox has been used to reduce sweating in the underarms, palms of the hands and soles of the feet.

Use for Cosmetic Treatment
Botulinum toxin works by relaxing muscle and thus preventing wrinkles and smoothing out lines. Wrinkle creams have been on the market for years and there is always controversy over which ones actually work and which ones are downright scams. Cream treatments lift and firm your skin while getting rid of fine lines and wrinkles. Wrinkles caused by sun damage and gravity will not respond to BOTOX Cosmetic. Wrinkles that are present in the skin before active contraction of muscles will not be removed with BOTOX Cosmetic.
Effects are usually noticed within a few days. Effects of the treatment generally last four to six months, and at that time, a patient can opt for a repeat treatment to maintain the positive results.

Fillers and Botox is a mainstay of cosmetic dermatology, the science of looking younger without surgery. Traditionally, fillers erase the deep folds that bracket your mouth. Fillers fill the fold, elevating it, but that does not stop the muscle activity. Sometimes BOTOX and fillers will be used together in a single location, to produce more rapid initial improvement. Filler materials, such as Restyling, plump up the skin. Although fillers reduce the appearance of lines when there is no facial expression, the moment the person does smile or frown, the lines reappear.
