The Many Uses of Botox

By Carrie Serienz


Though most often recognized as an aesthetic procedure, Botox is also used for a variety of conditions and is a popular solution for excessive underarm sweating. It is also good for treating teeth grinding and jaw clenching. Botox has been found useful for treating a range of other aesthetic and physical complaints, but that's not to say it isn't a fabulous option for smoothing out wrinkles too. A more youthful appearance can be a result of Botox treatment, but so can sculpting of your features, easing of physical pain, and even improvement to your smile. Botox is useful for a variety of things:

Overactive Bladder

It's true, Botox can even help with this embarrassing and problematic medical condition. Doctors can inject a small amount into the muscles of the bladder, helping to relax them and prevent them from contracting and causing the need to urinate frequently. It is a fairly simple procedure with results that can last more than six months. People who undergo this treatment will find the quality of their lives has vastly improved, and they'll feel overall much more comfortable.

Excessive Sweating

Excessive sweating can be both embarrassing and irritating. There may be different parts of your body where you get sweats. Sweating most frequently occurs in the underarms and face. As soon as possible, each and every person wants to get rid of this embarrassing problem. Hyperhidrosis is the term for the condition of too much sweating. A medical condition can cause it, but it might be for other reasons. The results of treatment last 12 to 15 months, so for continued effects after that you must repeat the injections.

Migraines

Benefits of Botox also include pain relief from migraines. Anyone who has ever suffered from a migraine understands the debilitating pain that results from this condition. Migraine pain can be treated with Botox injections, although we don't know yet exactly why this works. The simple procedure is also thought to treat migraines by blocking the sensory nerves that send pain signals to your brain. It also thought that the toxin relaxes muscles; this reduces sensitivity to the migraine pain. Instances of migraine have been reported to drop by half or more, by those who use Botox to treat them.

Research has demonstrated that celebrities still use Botox as their number one anti-ageing weapon. The trick is not too use too much, as it can give the skin a stiff, marble-like look. Good doctors use Botox sparingly, to ensure natural-looking results, because they know this.

If surgery is not your thing, cosmetic, aesthetic and wellness procedures have advanced to such a degree that specialists are now able to take years off your face in just a few hours - without being invasive. There are more options than ever when it comes to looking and feeling younger these days - that's a fact.
