Botox is one of the most common and safest anti-aging, skin rejuvenation treatments and can address a number of patients’ concerns when administered by a trained practitioner. Unfortunately, even after years of success, this revolutionary treatment is still shrouded in common misconceptions.
Here are five myths about Botox debunked and the truth about this incredible anti-aging treatment:
Botox works by relaxing muscle movement, therefore reducing the frequency and severity of line and wrinkle formation in the skin.

BOTOX FOR HYPERHIDROSIS IN EDMONTON
Contrary to popular belief, there are no addictive properties in Botox and stopping the treatment will not worsen fine lines or wrinkles. However, patients who discontinue injections will notice the reemergence of wrinkles over time because the results of this anti-aging treatment last between 3-4 months.
While you will certainly not develop a dependence on Botox, you are likely to be so pleased with the results that you will choose to continue the treatment.
Trained Botox practitioners who take their time with your injections are typically able to achieve results without any bruising or discoloration of skin. The proper technique also ensures this treatment isn’t painful or outright ‘noticeable’.

Botox is widely used for many types of patients, and there really is no one ideal patient profile. In fact, younger patients can benefit as much as older ones, as ‘preventive Botox’ can stop wrinkle formation and reduce the need for future treatments.
