Botox injections have become an everyday treatment when it comes to enhancing the cosmetic appearance of the skin. Not only is treatment safe and effective, it is also extremely affordable, making more and more people opt for this treatment today. However, there still appears to be a small amount of 'stigma' attached to botox injections as the change is visibly evident, making it fairly obvious to everyone if a person has had botox treatment.
Discreet or 'baby' botox injections are available these days, however. Here we shall take a look at this briefly.
What is baby botox?
People who undergo botox injection treatments prefer to preserve their natural look while reaping the benefits of botox treatment on their lines and wrinkles. Current botox treatments are aimed at getting rid of almost all lines and wrinkles on the face, and can result in a look that can to some appear unnatural. On the other hand baby botox is aimed at treating just a few lines and wrinkles while preserving certain natural expression lines.
What is baby botox treatment targeted at?
Mostly, baby botox treatments treat a few wrinkles on the forehead, as well as crow's feet (fine lines and wrinkles seen at the corner of the eyes) and frown lines. Areas such as those under the eyes are not injected. To help open up the eyes, the eyebrow may also be injected, and this can have a remarkable impact on the patient's overall appearance. In short, strategically placed treatments offer all the benefits of botox, but by targeting only certain areas of the face the natural look is preserved.
Advantages
After baby botox treatments, as is the case with botox injections, patients report a significant improvement in their look and feel a lot younger. With some of the common wrinkles still present, confidence levels are also a lot higher because their natural look is preserved.
Baby botox injection risks
The nature of the injection given does not change, so the risks with baby botox injections are the same as the ones seen with regular botox. Patients report mild bruising and bleeding at the site of injection, which resolves spontaneously without leaving any scars. Infections are rare as the procedure is performed under sterile conditions. There are hardly any reported cases of severe reactions, but allergic reactions could occur to components within the botox injection, although these are rare.
Conclusion
Baby botox is becoming more and more popular due to the fact that it preserves the patient's natural look, while getting rid of most of the fine wrinkles on the face. There is no doubt that this may become the preferred treatment by many patients in the future.
