How long does it last, what is it for, at what age can you try it… Would you know how to answer these questions about Botox? If you are considering undergoing this aesthetic treatment of which many celebrities are fans, do not miss this video in which our expert collaborator in fashion and beauty, Kika Rocha, interviews Dr. Carolina Martínez who will clear up many doubts.
"Botox is a toxin that is applied at the muscle level to decrease muscle contraction. It is applied to the forehead, crow's feet and eyebrows to reduce those expression lines, "explains the expert, adding that some people who gesticulate a lot also use it preventively, before those wrinkles appear.
One of the main mistakes made regarding this toxin is to confuse it with fillers, which are also applied with a syringe. "[Unlike these] botox does not deform and does not fill," clarifies the dermatologist. "Botox blocks the nerve impulse that causes the muscle to contract."
And how long does the effect really last? The expert ensures that the effect lasts between 4 and 6 months, depending on each patient. Botox can be administered to patients of different ages, a good age is when you start to notice that your expression lines are marked, even at rest.
Above all, whatever your age and skin type, the most important thing is to go to a certified expert with demonstrable experience. Be well informed before trying a treatment like this.
