Botox


Botox is a drug made from a toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. It's the same toxin that causes a life-threatening type of food poisoning called botulism.Botox combats wrinkles that are created when nerve cells within the muscles beneath the skin release a chemical called acetylcholine.Acetylcholine release is disrupted by botox, which essentially paralyzes the muscle and stops the contraction.Results from Botox injections can last up to 4 months

The problems that are treated by botox are

▣ Temporary removal of facial wrinkles
▣ Severe underarm sweating
▣ Cervical dystonia - a neurological disorder that causes severe neck and shoulder muscle contractions
▣ Blepharospasm - uncontrollable blinking
▣ Strabismus - misaligned eyes

Procedure

The procedure takes only a few minutes and no anesthesia is required.The selection of injection points is critical to the success of the procedure. The points of injection are first scored with a marking pencil. The doctor may select numerous injection points for each location to be treated.Botox is injected with a fine needle into specific muscles with only minor discomfort. It generally takes three to seven days to take full effect and it is best to avoid alcohol at least one week prior to treatment

Chemical Peel


A chemical peel is a treatment in which an acid solution is used to remove the damaged outer layers of the skin.It is helpful for those individuals with facial blemishes, wrinkles and uneven skin pigmentation.

Dermal Fillers are generally are made of several types of materials of synthetic, man-made and natural categories, and they have been developed into various standards depending on the level of usage.They are often a kind of soft tissue designed in such a way that enables injection into the skin for purposes of improving the appearance.

Dermal fillers are injected, usually without the need for local anaesthetic, into lines and wrinkles to plump them out. The dermal filler then remains in the skin, where it binds water to produce a lift and give firmness to the treated area

The fillers can last upto six to seven months .The filler is gradually broken down and absorbed by the body, so the lines, wrinkles or lips will ultimately return to their previous appearance without top up treatments.
