The essence of the

procedure Botox is a drug produced from the secret of specific bacteria, botulinum toxin is a super-strong poison. It is this substance that causes the banks of marinades to explode. Poisoning him has a separate name in medicine - botulism, severe intoxication, with frightening lethal statistics. Botox, as is known, does not result in death due to a very low concentration of poison. Actually botox is only a part of the complex toxic substance of botulinum toxin.

Botox works as follows. Getting into the muscles, the substance included in it stops the innervation in the injection area. As a result, the muscles in this area relax, and the neighboring area of ​​the muscle fibers stretches. Correctly chosen points for the introduction of the drug are the guarantee of a successful procedure, after which wrinkles and wrinkles disappear. The procedure is performed in the forehead, between the eyebrows, around the eyes, for the neck against the second chin, for the hair.

Sensations from the

procedure What does the person feel after such injections? The sensations are not very pleasant, mainly due to the fact that facial muscles of the face refuse to work. The face looks like a frozen mask. But after a while, this effect begins to subside, gradually working capacity returns to the muscles, but the age-related skin problems are still not visible. The whole problem is that later, after about three to four months( depending on the individual characteristics of the work of the excretory system), the body restores muscle innervation, and with it returns the years.

Botox and alcohol

If you decide on this procedure, then alcohol should be discarded 1-2 days before it and refrain from drinking after injection for 2 weeks.
