Skin Care for a Modern Society: The Role of Botox

The Importance of Skin Care

As much as we all love the outdoors, the environment is damaging to our skin and one of the biggest factors contributing to facial again. There are a range of factors impacting the condition of our skin; Air pollution, wind, and harmful UV rays act on our skin to age it more rapidly and cause permanent damage. A regular skin care regimen including sunscreens, moisturizers, and other products are our first line of defense. The natural cycle of life, namely the effects of gravity and strain of facial muscles, also impacts the health of our skin and skin care. As we age, our skin loses its elasticity and begins to droop, creating wrinkles, lines, and furrows. The facial skin is not only the most delicate on the body but it also is the area that receives the most exposure to the elements, requiring special attention and skin care. Wrinkling of the skin is therefore a product of environmental stresses, aging, and facial expressions. Some skin types are more prone to experience intense wrinkling which is likely related to genetics, general health, and the skin care regimen used. Creases on and above the brow, known as glabellar lines, and lines around the eyes, known as “crow’s feet”, are common to all skin types and often begin developing in our late 20s and early 30s. Although a regular skin care regime may slow the onset of such signs, it does not prevent them. These lines often give people an older appearance and contribute to the impression of being continually tired and stressed. Fortunately, due to science and medical advances, there are now a number of solutions to help combat and deter the signs of aging and wrinkling. Surgical progressions have increased the number of procedures available and less invasive options have also been developed. By far one of the most successful and popular noninvasive treatment is Botox Cosmetic ®.

Botox Information: The science behind the solution!

Botox Cosmetic ® is the trade name for the product Botulinum Toxin Type A. It has been used for many years to treat a variety of medical conditions such as migraine headaches, neurological conditions, severe sweating, and conditions involving muscle spasms. In 2002 the use of the drug for cosmetic purposes was approved by the FDA and is both safe and effective to use. Botox treatment involves an injection, or a series of injections, directly into the muscle groups of the affected area. Botox ® works by temporarily weakening the muscle or group of muscles in the chosen area that are responsible for frown lines and wrinkles. With the muscles weakened, the creases and furrows relax and a smoother skin appearance is obtained. Appearances are not radically altered and facial movements are not affected. Botox information, available universally, attests to these successful results.
