Wrinkles are a natural phenomenon that affect everyone with age. However, there are many factors that can hasten the appearance of wrinkles. The most common factors to bring on wrinkles are ageing, daily movement of facial muscles, sun exposure and smoking.
BOTOX® is a natural, purified protein that works as a muscle relaxant to smoothen the facial lines that appear due to muscle movement. It is the only brand approved in 77 countries across the world as an easy and safe way to a rejuvenated and more youthful appearance. In April 2002, Botox gained US FDA approval for treatment of frown lines, crow's feet and other moderate-to-severe wrinkles.
At Kaya trained dermatologists administer BOTOX® doses based on the depth of the wrinkles.
Face is cleansed as the pre-requisite to administering BOTOX®. Next, BOTOX® is administered in a few tiny injections in the area from where the wrinkles are to be treated. The process does not involve more pain than that of a pin prick.
BOTOX® temporarily relaxes the muscles of the affected area, so the expressions that lead to forming those wrinkles don't occur anymore. The effect can be seen in 2-3 days. The best thing is, it only works on the affected area and does not affect the other muscle responsible for other facial expressions. So, natural expression is maintained. It will not freeze facial expressions. It softens them and works only where one wants it to.
A single treatment of BOTOX® will normally last for approximately 4-6 months and eventually there is a gradual fading of its effects. At this point, it's advisable to return to the doctor for a maintenance session to continue looking younger.
