Botox Cosmetic Injections And Nefertiti Lift



With age the effect of gravity and the excesses of life cause the cheek pads to travel south, and as a result the jowls form, and viewed in profile, the skin seems to run in a continuous flat sheet from cheek down to jawline to neck. Part of the reason for this is also the effect of the pull of the neck muscles (the platysma and its bands) to drag down skin to the neck.


Botox cosmetic injections offers the Nefertiti lift, which is a series of injections that are given to the jaw line and the platysmal bands, so that the downward pull of these muscles is less, and the skin of the cheeks is pulled back upwards, thus enhancing the jawline. Nefertiti was a famous Egyptian queen who ruled more than 3000 years ago, and her face and jawline were well known symbols of beauty.

Botox For Frown Lines

Botox for frown lines - before and after photos














Ever seen people rushing around with frown lines in between their eyebrows? Such a pity. They look so unpleasant. And yet they go on in life, oblivious to the effect they have on others. Not knowing that people avoid them, fearing confrontations. The frown line is not one that welcomes friendship easily, not unless the offerer of the hand knows that the owner of the frown is actually a decent sort of chap. Unfortunate is the salesman who walks around with a frown line. The hoped-for sale is going to be a long way off.

There is hope. Botox, or commonly known also as Botax, a purified toxin of the bacteria Clostridium botulinum, is available. In skilled hands, all that is needed is a few units of Botox or Botax into certain muscles in the face, and voila, the frown lines are gone for at least 4 to 6 months.

Botox Cosmetic Injection Good For Depression

Get a load of this: It is discovered that the use of botox cosmetic injection has expanded by another little bit - botox can be used to treat depression now. Researchers note that it is rather difficult to be depressed if frown lines do not show on the face. So they treat depressed people for their frown lines by injecting their foreheads. Presto! No more frown lines. And no more depression.

Botox Treatments To The Rescue





Ever had one of those times when you felt somewhat paranoid, suspecting strongly that your work colleagues were whispering behind you about the way you looked, or walked, or talked? One of those bits of gossip could very well be about the way you looked. Take a good look in the mirror, or ask a friendly helpful colleague for his or her frank comments: do you look unpleasant? Or do you look old? Chances are that one of the first things they will say is that you looked unpleasant and unapproachable.

Look in the mirror. The most obvious feature that causes you to look unpleasant will be your frown lines. Stare at the image staring back at you, and take in the knotted eyebrows. Can you do something about it? Yes, you can make a conscious effort to relax, but within a few seconds, due to force of habit, the frown lines are back again.

What would you do?

Heard of botox treatments?


Botox treatments or botox injections are injections of minute doses of botulinum toxin, a product of a bacterium called Clostridium botulinum, which are produced and purified for medical use. A few careful measured doses of botox injections into the muscles between your eyebrows do wonders within about 4 days. You now can walk tall and confident, knowing that the only whispers about you will be that you look so good these days, and perhaps you might have had some botox treatments that could account for this massive difference? Small matter. You will only be one of and estimated 4.6million persons in the USA (if you reside in the USA, that is) who had botox injections done yearly.



The effects of botox treatments last about 4 to 6 months. After that, the frown lines gradually reappear, and you know it is time for some repeat botox injections. During that time you will find out that every other person you know will have done, or knows some friend or relative who has done botox treatments. You will also find out more, that botox injections can be used for other areas such as forehead lines and crow's feet. More in later posts..
