Treatment for Botox<\/span><\/h2>\r\nBotox is a treatment in which botulinum toxin, the bacteria that is used in Botox treatments, is injected beneath the outer layer of facial skin. It comes in powder form, which is mixed with saline solution immediately before treatment is performed. The proportions are very important; too much saline will not produce the desired effects. Once the solution has been prepared, your oral surgeon will target specifically the neuromuscular tissue where wrinkles occur when muscles contract. The Botox substance then disrupts the message to block the contraction of the muscle, which prevents the appearance of a wrinkle. <\/span>\r\n\r\nThe sensation of Botox injections has been compared to that of a bug bite or pinprick, so anesthesia is generally not required with Botox. Results will usually start to show within 24 to 72 hours after the treatment. However, in some rare cases it may take up to 5 days for results from Botox to be noticeable. Most Botox results last for between 3 to 5 months before retreatment is recommended.<\/span>\r\n\r\nMost adult patients can safely undergo Botox injections. The average age for treatment is thought to be in the mid-to late-40s, but Botox can have preventive effects when started even earlier. Pregnant women or people who have had allergic reactions to Botox in the past should not undergo the treatment. <\/span>\r\n
