The Many Uses of Botox

By Carrie Serienz


Although Botox is frequently seen as an aesthetic procedure, it is useful for many conditions and is popularly used to treat excessive underarm sweating. It is used to treat jaw clenching and teeth grinding. That's not to say it isn't a fabulous option for smoothing out wrinkles too. But Botox has been found useful to treat a variety of other aesthetic and physical complaints. Botox can help sculpt your features, ease physical pain, and even improve your smile, as well as give you a more youthful appearance. Here are some uses for Botox:

Overactive Bladder

Believe it or not, Botox can assist with an inconvenient and uncomfortable medical condition. The bladder muscles relax, which helps prevent them from contracting and causing the need to urinate frequently, when a doctor injects a small amount of Botox into them. The procedure is fairly simple and the results can last longer than six months. This treatment improves the quality of life for those who undergo it, and makes them feel much more comfortable overall.

Excessive Sweating

Excessive sweating can end up being annoying, and an embarrassment. You might get sweats in different parts of your body. The underarms and face are the two most common places in your body for sweating. Both of these are embarrassing and each and every person wants to get rid of this problem as soon as possible. The condition of too much sweating is also known as hyperhidrosis. A medical condition can cause it, but it might be for other reasons. The treatment can be effective only for 12 to 15 months and if you want the same result after that you will have to go for the injections again.

Migraines

Benefits of Botox also include pain relief from migraines. Migraine sufferers know all too well how debilitating and painful this condition can be. It is not known exactly how it works, but Botox injections can treat pain from migraines. The simple procedure is also thought to treat migraines by blocking the sensory nerves that send pain signals to your brain. It seems that the toxin reduces sensitivity to the migraine pain by relaxing the muscles. Use of Botox in the treatment of migraines has been reported to cause their reduction by half or more.

Research has demonstrated that celebrities still use Botox as their number one anti-ageing weapon. The trick is not too use too much, as it can give the skin a stiff, marble-like look. Use Botox sparingly to ensure natural-looking results, as any good doctor knows.

Non-invasive cosmetic, aesthetic and wellness procedures have advanced to such a degree that specialists are now able to take years off your face in just a few hours, even if you don't want invasive surgery. Today, the truth of the matter is that when it comes to looking and feeling younger, there are more options than ever.
