5 Reasons Botox Is So Popular With Young Adults

More and more people from the age of 25 up to 50 choose Botox injections to improve their appearance on a regular basis. Now that doctors all over the world can buy Botox 50U or Botox 100U at such pleasant prices, it became one of the basic cosmetic treatments for a vast number of patients. 

But is the price the only reason why these cosmetic injections are gaining more and more popularity among the visitors of beauty clinics? Here are five reasons why botox is becoming so popular:

1. Younger Appearance

The procedure with Botox injections is aimed at the elimination of the aging signs such as fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, between the eyebrows, on the forehead, and around the mouth. Botulinum toxin, which lies at the base of Botox wrinkle treatment, relaxes the facial muscles, eliminating creases on the skin, leaving you a smoother and younger-looking face. Wrinkles can appear not just as a result of aging but also active facial expressions like frowning, smiling, or squinting, so sometimes even 25 years old men and women may have some wrinkles in a particular area if they have any of the above-mentioned habits. Botox is an effective way to remove these imperfections, look younger, and thus be more confident!

2. No Recovery Time

Not everyone is ready to do plastic surgery with all its risks and downtime. Botox is a wonderful alternative for all these invasive treatments. The injections with Botox are minimally invasive procedures that do not harm the surface of the skin except for the tiny punctures from the fine needle. Directly after the procedure, you can return to your ordinary life. There is no need to stay in the clinic or at home. Of course, there are some restrictions to limit the possibility of catching an infection or spreading of the toxin in the skin tissues, but they are so minor that they will not considerably change your lifestyle.

3. Minimal Side Effects

You should be aware there is no procedure without side effects, and Botox cosmetic treatment is also accompanied by some reactions from the organism. However, in most cases, if the procedure was done by a qualified doctor, with a quality product, and following all the instructions, the recovery time will be short with minimal side effects. 

If you plan to get Botox, you can expect to see the following reactions of the organism:

• redness
• swelling
• itching
• pain
• bruising

All of these reactions are local and temporary. After the injection, you may feel slight weakness, vomiting, nausea, headache. But what is this compared to all the pain and discomfort after plastic surgery? Nothing.

4. Fast, Visible Results

One more benefit of the non-surgical treatment of Botox compared to surgery is the fast visible results it provides. I will not mislead you that it starts working immediately, but already after 3-4 days after the procedure, the muscles will start to freeze, and you will see that your forehead or the treatment area under the eyes gradually becomes smoother.

Botox works gradually, paralyzing the nerve endings and decreasing the tension in the skin tissues, it shows the first results till the end of 2 weeks after the treatment, reaches the peak of its action to the 2nd months, and then, its impact gradually weakens and decreases. The nerves grow new endings, and the muscles renew their ability for contraction.

5. Natural-Looking Face

Recently, in the cosmetic industry, we notice a sharp shift towards maximum naturalness and non-invasiveness. Patients tend to look for rejuvenation that makes them look younger without revealing something has been done to their faces. That is why minimally-invasive cosmetic treatments such as Botox, dermal fillers, and mesotherapy are more popular than surgical procedures. Botox wins here as unlike hyaluronic acid, which adds volume to the derma, sometimes may look unnatural and obvious if the patient or doctor have “overdone”, Botox does not add any volume but simply eliminates the wrinkles and folds by decreasing the inner tension in the tissues and relaxing the muscles. In the case of Botox treatments, there is a risk of having a moveless face with no emotions, but if you put effort and find an experienced doctor, you will not face such a problem.
