Does Regular Botox Cause Deformation On The Skin?

Do deep wrinkles and fine lines appear on your face over time, making you feel bad? Does your attention shift to imperfect areas every time you look in the mirror?

If you answer 'yes' to any of these questions, you are ready for botox treatment

Botox has been and continues to be the most commonly applied anti-aging treatment for years. Botox, which is frequently preferred by both men and women, creates a magical effect in bringing back the young and dynamic image.

So, should it be repeated after having botox once? How often should botox be applied? Those who are curious about this and more, Physician Gokce Haspolat MD replies:

“The painless and fast botox treatment, which can be performed in just 10-15 minutes, is among the treatments I apply the most.

It can be done during the day, even during lunch, and then continue with daily life. Before the procedure, we numb the area with anesthetic creams, which minimizes the pain.

Some of my patients do not even need these creams. We perform the operation in a controlled manner with a thin needle, called a ghost needle, to the numb area.”

10th Day Control

At this very point, I would like to answer the question "Should Botox be repeated continuously?"

Should Botox be Repeated Continuously?

botox treatmentbotox treatment“After a one-time botox treatment, you do not have to apply botox continuously.

When the effect of botox wears off, the treated area only returns to its original state and no different deformation occurs. Re-applying the botox process is completely preferable.”

How Often Should You Have Botox?

botox“I would like to answer this issue with a research.

A new study in which 207 patients were surveyed for 10 years shows that frequently repeated botox treatments do not cause deformation as thought, but on the contrary, it helps to achieve permanent results.

As with all cosmetic treatments, anti-wrinkle injections are not permanent. Although this varies from patient to patient, the procedure has an average lifespan of 3-5 months.

At the end of this period, you can repeat the process at any time. “

If Botox is not Done Again, Will Wrinkles Increase?

botox"One of the questions frequently asked by those who want to have Botox and those who have this application for the first time is 'Will there be deformation when the effect of Botox wears off?'

I would like to say that with my research and experience; Regular use of botox realigns certain muscles to move less, resulting in smoother skin with fewer applications over time.

After the Botox effect wears off, your face returns to its natural state and dynamic wrinkles reappear. However, I can answer that there is no increase in the wrinkle rate or no different deformation after botox.”
