Botox can be applied to many points on the face. The areas where wrinkles are most commonly observed, such as around the eyes, between the eyebrows, and on the forehead, are the most frequently treated. In particular, wrinkles in the forehead area can cause an appearance of fatigue and irritability. With this procedure, easily accessible to anyone who values their youthful appearance and aesthetics nowadays, self-confidence is boosted and the onset of wrinkles can be prevented even before they form.
As we age and our skin loses its elasticity, changes occur in our skin. For those who use their facial muscles frequently and those genetically predisposed, wrinkles may manifest more quickly as age advances. The 'frontal' muscle located in our forehead is crucial for a relaxed and vibrant skin appearance. Attempts might be made to cover forehead lines with creams or cosmetic products. However, these methods are not as effective as botox. Sometimes, wrinkles on the forehead can even lead to a decrease in self-confidence.
During younger ages, wrinkles haven't yet reached a noticeable level, so there might not be a frequent need for botox. However, from the age of thirty onwards, as wrinkles become visibly prominent, I recommend patients get regular botox injections. This is because botox not only eradicates existing lines but also prevents the formation of new ones. It aids in giving the skin a lively and youthful appearance. Botox application is a very straightforward procedure. Pain sensation in the area to be treated is minimized with local anesthesia and cooling.
The botox procedure is completed within approximately 5 minutes and can be done in any season. After the procedure, patients can immediately return to their daily lives. There might be slight swelling and redness post-procedure, but these symptoms subside quickly, leaving a bright and vibrant look in the treated area. Botox has a temporary effect. It may need to be repeated at intervals of 4-6 months. Depending on the dose applied, facial expressions used, and genetic factors, the longevity of forehead botox can vary from person to person.
