Botox injections are now common practice to improve the skin's appearance. As a safe and effective treatment, more and more people also choose it because it is so affordable. It is fairly obvious if a person has had botox treatment because the change is visibly evident, and there still appears to be a small amount of 'stigma' attached to botox injections.
Discreet or 'baby' botox injections are available these days, however. Here we shall take a look at this briefly.
Baby botox: what is it?
People who undergo botox injection treatments prefer to preserve their natural look while reaping the benefits of botox treatment on their lines and wrinkles. Aimed at getting rid of almost all lines and wrinkles on the face, current botox treatments can result in a look that can to some appear unnatural. Baby botox is a way of treating some lines and wrinkles, and maintaining some of the lines that come with a person's natural expressions.
What is baby botox treatment targeted at?
In most cases, baby botox treatments are directed at treating crow's feet (fine lines and wrinkles seen at the corner of the eyes), frown lines and a few wrinkles on the forehead. Areas such as those under the eyes are not injected. One area that can have remarkable effects on overall appearance of the patient is the eyebrow - it may be injected to help open up the eyes. 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
Patients report a significant improvement in their look and feel a lot younger following baby botox treatments, as is the case with botox injections. 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
Regular botox treatment poses the same risks as baby botox because the nature of the injection given is the same. Patients report mild bleeding and bruising at the injection site; this goes away without leaving any scar tissue. The risk of infection is rare because the procedure is done in 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.
