Botox Hot Spots

By Anka Sanori


Botox injections are widely used for a variety of cosmetic reasons. In the last few years there has been a significant increase in its use with more and more people seeking to change the way they look and shave off years with this simple and quick treatment. Its popularity is primarily due to the speed of the procedure, the simplicity of the whole process, the quality results and how affordable it generally is.

Their most common site botox application is to the muscles and skin on the face, helping relax them and reducing the presence of fine lines and wrinkles. The three main sites most often injected are:

- Forehead wrinkles

- Crow's feet lines around the eyes

- Vertical '11' lines between eyebrows

Forehead wrinkles

These 'frown lines' are one of the most common sites for botox injection. The skin and muscles on the forehead are constantly being used and as a result are always under stress - this is why frown lines and wrinkles form here so often. As one of the first signs of aging, it is targeted first. Forehead lines seem to be the most troublesome amongst all facial creases for patients. This simple, quick and effective treatment does not even require anaesthesia. Repeat injections are usually required to preserve the crease-free look, but effects can last up to 6 months.

Crow's feet lines around the eyes

Due to constant muscle use, fine lines form at the corners of the eyes - these are referred to as crow's feet. It is an unfortunate yet unavoidable sign of ageing. Botox injections can effectively reduce these lines without giving the skin a stretched appearance, restoring the look that younger, healthier skin appears like. Crow's feet are very common, so they are the next popular treatment after frown lines. Effects can last for a period of up to 6 months following which additional treatments may be required, as is the case with other botox treatments.

Vertical '11' lines

When frowning, these are the two lines that form between the eyebrows. Botox injections are useful in reducing the depth of these lines and smoothens them out effectively. The results of this 10-15 minute procedure are excellent.

The top 3 sites on the face for botox injection are listed here. More rare are other sites such as chin lifts and botox injections around the mouth that may be performed.

Conclusion

For excellent cosmetic results that offer younger looking skin free of wrinkles and fine lines, one of the most preferred treatments is still Botox.
