In today’s world, where self-care and skincare are top priorities, Botox has become one of the most popular and trusted treatments to reduce the signs of aging. But what exactly is Botox? How does it work? And is it safe?
In this blog, Dr. Geetika Srivastava, renowned skin specialist at Influennz Clinic, South Delhi, answers all your questions about Botox to help you make an informed choice.
What is Botox?
Botox is a purified form of botulinum toxin that is used medically and cosmetically to relax specific muscles. When injected in small, controlled doses, it temporarily blocks nerve signals to the muscles, preventing them from contracting. Botox is used as an anti-aging treatment.
The result? A smoother, younger-looking appearance with reduced fine lines and wrinkles, especially those caused by facial expressions.
How Does Botox Work?
Every time you smile, frown, or squint, your facial muscles move—and over time, this movement leads to dynamic wrinkles, such as:
-
Forehead lines
-
Crow’s feet (lines around the eyes)
-
Frown lines (between the eyebrows)
Botox works by relaxing these muscles, softening the appearance of wrinkles, and preventing new ones from forming.
What Can Botox Treat?
While Botox is most popular for reducing wrinkles, it has many uses in both cosmetic and medical fields.
Cosmetic Uses:
-
Forehead lines
-
Glabellar lines (frown lines)
-
Crow’s feet
-
Bunny lines (on the nose)
-
Lip lines
-
Neck bands
Medical Uses:
-
Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis)
-
Migraine relief
-
Muscle spasms
-
Jaw clenching (bruxism)
-
Eye twitching (blepharospasm)
Is Botox Safe?
Yes, when administered by a qualified dermatologist like Dr. Geetika Srivastava, Botox is completely safe and FDA-approved. The treatment involves minimal discomfort and has virtually no downtime, making it a perfect lunchtime procedure.
How Long Does Botox Last?
Botox results typically start showing within 3 to 7 days and can last for 3 to 6 months. After this period, the muscle activity gradually returns, and repeat sessions are recommended to maintain results.
