There are many non cosmetic, medical benefits using anti wrinkle treatments. Botulinum Toxin ranges from A-H and it is the A type which is used for cosmetic procedures. Botulinum Toxin A is more commonly advertised using its brand name of BotoxⓇ. BotoxⓇ is a brand name patented by the manufacturer Allergan. Other brands of Botulinum Toxin A are Vistabel®, Dysport® , Azzalure®and Xeomin® and Bocouture®.
Here are five common misconceptions of anti wrinkle treatments with the use of BotoxⓇ.
-
BotoxⓇ is only for women.
Although women are more favoured in being open about looking their best, men are now as likely to care about their appearance as women. There has been a rise in the number of males seeking anti wrinkle treatments. Men too want the joyful younger appearance. With Botulinum Toxin A this can be achieved non surgically, effectively and quickly. Men of all ages are now getting anti wrinkle treatments with the use of Botulinum Toxin A.

BotoxⓇ paralyses the muscle
Botulinum toxin A aids in providing selective denervation. This is where the signal for a muscle to contract is reduced or eliminated. In effect where the muscle cannot contract, it cannot bunch the skin to cause wrinkles. This effect is reversible with effects wearing off on average by three months.
-
BotoxⓇ is only used to reduce wrinkles
Although to some degree this is true, there are more and more uses for BotoxⓇ. These include anti wrinkle treatments, hyperhidrosis treatments (excessive sweating), migraine or headache treatments, overactive bladder treatments, teeth grinding treatments, eye twitching and even neuralgia treatments. A lot of the uses mentioned are approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration).
-
BotoxⓇ is not safe
The effects of the Botulinum Toxin A are reversible. The procedure should be carried out by a trained professional. It should be remembered that Botulinum Toxin A is a prescription only medicine which is why Dental and Medical professionals are ideal candidates to administer the product.
