About Botox

What is Botox?

Botox (Botulinum toxin) is a toxin obtained from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. It shows its effect by preventing the release of substances that provide transmission at nerve endings and stopping the transmission between nerves and the organs they reach. The cessation of nerve conduction causes the functions of the organ the nerve reaches to decrease or disappear completely. It can be used for aesthetic and cosmetic purposes, to reduce wrinkles on the face that occur with the movements of facial muscles, to prevent their formation, to reduce sweating in excessive sweating areas, and in the treatment of chronic migraine.

No, botox is a natural, protein-based medicine produced from a special bacteria.
Botox application, which is an effective method in facial rejuvenation, should be performed by specialist physicians who know facial anatomy well and have received adequate training in order to avoid possible complications and achieve the desired result.
It is a drug with over 2000 studies, approved by the Ministry of Health in our country and in more than 70 countries around the world. It has been used for 20 years and millions of people safely choose these applications every year.
Approximately 3 months after the application, movement begins to return in strong muscles. After 4 months, the movement of weak muscles begins. After 6 months, the effect disappears completely. It is beneficial to repeat it every 4-6 months.
The main purpose of Botox application is not to neutralize the expression on the face, but to soften the facial expressions and give the face a natural aesthetic appearance. Confused and expressionless images are caused by the application being done in the wrong hands. Botox must be done by expert hands.
As long as it is done in expert and right hands, it can be done under the supervision of a doctor throughout life.

About Botox

How to Do Botox

Botox is administered as an injection and is not a painful procedure; a slight pain may be felt at the time of injection. When a decrease in the movements of the facial muscles is desired, injection is made into the facial muscles, and when the complaint of sweating is desired to be reduced, an injection is made into the skin.
The effect of Botox begins in 3-4 days following the injection and becomes fully established within the first week, and the duration of effect is 4-6 months. When Botox loses its effect, the application can be repeated.
Botox has no serious side effects on health. There may be temporary swelling and bruising after the application.

You can continue your daily life comfortably immediately after the operation. However, movements that require bending for long periods of time and exercising facial muscles should be avoided. In addition, the head should be kept elevated for approximately four hours after Botox injection, leaning forward should be avoided and not lying down. Approximately eight hours after the Botox injection, you can take a shower with warm water and in a way that will not cause any damage to the face, that is, without applying scrubs or pressure. Care should be taken to use cold water when washing the face.

Things to Pay Attention

Things to Consider After Botox

  • You can continue your daily life comfortably immediately after the operation. However, you should stay away from movements that require you to bend over for a long time. The effect of Botox injection appears within three to four days, and a period of one to two weeks is needed for the face to become fully aesthetic. Because the treated muscles begin to relax approximately on the 2nd - 3rd day after the operation, and the full effect of the drug is seen on the 10th - 14th day.
  • Approximately eight hours after the Botox injection aesthetic, you can take a shower with warm water and in a way that will not damage your face, that is, without applying scrubs or pressure. You should be careful to use cold water when washing your face.
  • Also, keep your head elevated for about two hours after the Botox injection, avoid leaning forward and do not lie down. Exercising the injected muscles for 1.5 - 2 hours after Botox injection, such as frowning, lifting the forehead, laughing, will increase the effect of the medicine.
  • The injection effect continues for 4-6 months and preserves the aesthetic appearance of the face. After this period, its effect begins to gradually decrease. When wrinkles on the skin begin to appear again, it means it is time to apply the injection.
  • Before and after the Botox operation, you can consult your doctor and use a painkiller that does not have a blood-thinning effect. Apart from all these, you should avoid activities such as solarium, Turkish bath, sauna, deep skin cleansing and peeling after Botox application.
