Our desire for wanting to look younger certainly hasn\u2019t waned &#8212; but the willingness to go under the scalpel for younger skin has. As people start to move away from invasive cosmetic procedures, they find that Botox offers an effective, minimally-invasive alternative. Still, myths remain about its use and application. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.halifaxplantationdental.com\/meet-the-doctor.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Fraser<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> provides Botox in Ormond Beach, FL &#8212; keep reading to learn the facts of this popular cosmetic procedure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Myth #1: Botox is for existing wrinkles<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many people believe Botox is something you choose once you already have wrinkles. But it\u2019s actually a good preventive measure, too. Starting your Botox treatments early can help retrain your face to avoid making certain wrinkle-causing movements or expressions. That can help prevent the lines from occurring in the first place, requiring less Botox later on. We\u2019re not saying 18 or 22 is a good age for Botox, as you can be too young for the treatment. But the truth is, the time to begin fighting fine lines and wrinkles may be earlier than you think. Some patients begin Botox in their 30s.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Myth #2: Botox is just for women<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Botox is frequently considered a procedure for women. While many women do choose Botox for reducing fine lines and wrinkles, its use is certainly not limited to one gender. Plenty of men choose Botox to achieve a more youthful look and to smooth out their facial skin, and the number of men undergoing Botox treatments is rising every year. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Myth #3: Botox is only for wrinkles<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A lot of our patients are surprised to learn that Botox has plenty of applications outside of smoothing the facial skin. Sometimes, its cosmetic benefits are merely a pleasant side effect on the quest for another goal. Botox can be used to reduce chronic migraines or to reduce jaw clenching and teeth grinding as treatment for TMJ\/TMD (temporomandibular joint dysfunction). People who experience excessive sweating can also benefit from the fact that Botox temporarily blocks the sweat glands. Perhaps most surprisingly? Research suggests that Botox can actually help to <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/matthewherper\/2015\/05\/20\/botox-seems-to-ease-depression\/#60c3b7831523\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">reduce depression<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Myth #4: Botox may be unsafe<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some people continue to doubt the safety of Botox, despite the fact that it has held approval from the FDA (Food and Drug Association) since 1989. The truth is, when performed by a qualified doctor, Botox is a safe, effective method for reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Millions of patients have chosen Botox over the past few decades, with wonderful results. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Myth #5: Botox will make me look frozen<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rather than freezing your face, Botox relaxes the muscles in the place where it is injected. It may be placed around the crow\u2019s feet, in the forehead, the smile lines, or between the eyebrows. The surrounding muscles are not affected by Botox treatments, and you will still be able to express a wide range of emotions following your Botox injection. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An experienced doctor like Dr. Fraser will help you achieve a natural-looking, youthful, and radiant facial appearance with Botox.
