Here’s Some Great Advice for You re Botulinum Injections Sydney
Botulinum medicine (abbreviated to B.tox) is fast becoming popular amongst Sydney’s fashionable crowd in fact it is fast becoming an essential part of a beauty routine for people in the Harbour City. But I am frequently astonished by the rumours surrounding this procedure. Here I have outlines some of the more falsehoods often encountered at Star Cosmetic Medicine in Pyrmont, Sydney.
Myth Number 1: B.tox can freeze all my expressions!
Research has found there are around 60 muscles in the human face. The facial muscles normally perform harmoniously, however over a period of time lines can form. If excessive B.tox has been employed the muscular structure which are responsible for facial expression can become less expressive. Most doctors would use relatively small doses to result in you appearing less tired, but still you will always maintain your facial expression.
Indeed a carefully measured injection of B.tox in the right site means facial expression is saved whilst the wrinkles undergo a softening effect.
Myth Number 2: B.tox is a poison!
This to some extent is true. Botulinum Toxin Type A is the correct pharmaceutical terminology. Too great a dose may result in loss of muscle tone and may cause illness.
However to maintain some perspective: an ancient pharmacy saying states that ‘everything is a poison – it all depends on the dose’. A large dose of any medicine may cause illness. If you drink too much water it will result in death.

Myth Number 3: Wrinkle injections hurt!
Your hair is larger than the hypodermic needles we use at Star Cosmetic Medicine. Several people compare the treatments to mosquito bites. It for certain is not as painful as a procedure like a blood profile.
Myth Number 4: My face will lose sensitivity!
This is totally false. B.tox targets the junction between the nerve and the facial muscle, not sensate nerve fibers. Just the ability to relax muscles is impacted by B.tox injections.
Myth Number 5. You can’t stop getting B.tox otherwise you will get even worse wrinkles than before!
This is also false.
Botox is expected to last for in the region of three months. Any further treatments after the first consultation should be effective for a few weeks more. Eventually as muscle strength returns the wrinkles will eventually reform. But they will certainly not be any worse than previously.
Even if you never had B.tox ever again – those lines should be better than if you had never been treated. Mainly due to the fact that your facial muscles and skin have had a ‘wrinkle holiday’ during the therapy.
