Myths about expression line treatments
There is a lot of information circulating on the internet that is contradictory and lacks scientific support, making it difficult to identify what is true or false. That is why today we will clarify several of the concerns that patients may have about wrinkle treatment with toxin so that they can make a well informed decision.
Wrinkle treatment leaves you expressionless. FALSE
A large part of the people that you think have not applied treatments and seem to age naturally but more slowly, have applied toxin …… This is because a doctor with the right experience and training, applied the right dose and in the right area, which allows a high probability of completely natural results while maintaining facial expressions.
Remember that the purpose of the treatment is to relax the muscles, not to paralyze them. In this way you can continue to gesture, but you do not hurt the skin while doing so. That is why the toxin is the ideal treatment to prevent, smooth or eliminate wrinkles in the upper third of the face.
Once you take Toxin you have to keep taking it forever. FALSE
Of course not, if you want to try the results of the toxin and for some reason you decide to stop doing it, absolutely nothing will happen. After its time of action your muscles will start to move like before and your wrinkles will start to show again, just like before.
Most people decide to continue with their application because they are delighted with the results and of course they want to maintain them and the wonderful thing is that it can be done indefinitely.
The application of Toxin is dangerous. FALSE
The toxin is actually a protein that blocks nerve signals reaching the muscle. The very small doses used in aesthetic medicine make it a completely safe, very noble treatment that can be used indefinitely.
Although side effects do exist, the probability of their occurrence is low and if we want to have a better chance of avoiding them and having successful results, the application should be performed by a certified and experienced physician.
It is for senior citizens. FALSE
The greatest tool we have at our fingertips to prevent wrinkles and expression lines is toxin.
So the ideal age to start its application is between 25 and 30 years old if we want to maintain the perfect state in which our skin is still in.
So it’s not for grown-ups? Of course it is, it’s just that we’re going to have a better outcome in the long run the sooner we start.
It leaves you balls. FALSE
It should not give volume, it is applied in the form of a liquid substance that is completely absorbed within minutes of application, so it is associated with this effect.
There is a lot of misinformation on this subject and erroneous reference is made to the ctaegory of fillers or implants or any cosmetic procedure that looks exaggerated, but this could not be further from the truth.
Its effect, when performed by a medical professional, will most of the time be a fresh and relaxed face.
