The Botox Injection Procedure - Beauty That Comes With A Painful Price
Botox is not exactly a no hassles procedure.
It is a surgical operation that requires much consideration before choosing as an appropriate procedure.
There are many factors that go into making this decision, such as budget, reasons for doing so, and likely benefits versus inadvertent cost physically as well as financially.
This article will look at the pros and cons of opting for a Botox injection procedure and address some of the concerns involved with this type of surgery.
Firstly what exactly is Botox surgery.
Botox surgery occurs in the form of a injection of a needle into the suggested area.
The patient can choose to have the area numbed with a topical cream so that they don't feel any pain or they can elect to go under a general anesthetic, making the process that little more calming.
A liquid is inserted into the area that numbs the internal muscles within around 3 days and lasts around 6 months.
In terms of results it is said that you will notice improvements and lessening of wrinkles within 2 weeks.
If the treatment is for other cosmetic purposes like enhancing the lips, the same time frame will generally apply.
Secondly without sugar coating it, you are going to have to take into consideration the factor of pain.
Everyone who undergoes surgery admits that the recovery period is accompanied by a significant amount of pain.
Some of these people feel that the end result, post recovery is well worth the pain endured and so they undergo multiple procedures while others deem the pain too excessive and vow never to have surgery again.
Ultimately what this means is to weigh up how badly you really need such a procedure.
If it is purely cosmetic think about how it will effect other areas of your life like your work or your family.
Only if it shouldn't have too drastic an impact on any of these should you move forward with the decision.
In addition to all of these is the issue of cost.
The Botox injection itself will generally set you back around $500 per injection depending on which surgeon you visit.
This will then be accompanied by other fees associated to the procedure so the likelihood is that depending on the type of procedure you might be lucky to get out of the hospital under $1000.
What many people don't realize is that to remain effective Botox injections need to be taken every approximately 6 months.
If you can forsee that there will be a problem affording the continual outlay of this type of cash Botox probably isn't for you.
All these things being considered the after operation aspect of Botox is relatively complication free.
While there may be bruising, no dressings or bandages are needed as there have been no lacerations to the treated area and in most cases the patient can return to the normal course of their life within 1-2 days.
