Botox is a treatment method widely used in aesthetic and medical fields. Its main component, botulinum toxin, has an effect that temporarily blocks nerve conduction and limits muscle movements. The main areas of use of Botox:
- Wrinkle removal: Fine lines and wrinkles on the face, especially the forehead, glabellar area and lines around the eyes (crow’s feet) can be reduced with Botox.
- Face shaping: The face can be made thinner and more oval by reducing the jaw muscles (masseter botox).
- Lip lift (Lip Flip): It can be used to make the upper lip look fuller and upward.
- Cigarette lines: It can be used to eliminate vertical lines above the lip.
- Face lift: It can be used to create a lifting effect on the face by partially blocking the muscles that pull the face and lip edges downward.
- Nose thinning: It can be used to make the nose wings look thinner.
- Neck and décolleté rejuvenation: It can be effective in the treatment of neck lines and wrinkles in the décolleté area.
- Excessive sweating (Hyperhidrosis): Excessive sweating in areas such as hands, feet and armpits can be controlled with Botox.
When applied correctly by a specialist, Botox is an effective and safe treatment method in both aesthetic and medical fields. However, since each individual’s needs are different, it is important to have a detailed evaluation with a specialist before Botox treatment.
