|
Q. |
Which type of wrinkles respond best to botulinum injections? |
A. |
Only dynamic wrinkles respond positively to
botulinum injections. Wrinkles on the forehead and around the eyes are
the most responsive.
Wrinkles due to sun damage and aging will not improve through
botulinum injections as these types of wrinkles do not involve muscle
contractions. |
|
Q. |
How does botulinum treatment work for wrinkles? |
A. |
botulinum blocks the nerve signals that trigger
the facial muscle contractions that produce facial lines or wrinkles.
The muscles are immobilized by botulinum, hence, softening and
preventing the formation of age lines. |
|
Q. |
Are there any risks? |
A. |
There are very minimal, and often rare, risks
and side effects associated with botulinum. Headache, flu-like symptoms,
temporary redness, swelling, tiny pinching sensations and bruising are
the most common side effects that usually fade over time.
No fatal systemic side effects have been reported from locally administering botulinum injections for facial wrinkles. |
