Anti-wrinkle treatment (Tox) is a popular cosmetic treatment that can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving you a more youthful, refreshed appearance. However, before getting Tox, there are a few important things you should know.
What is Tox?
Tox is a purified form of botulinum toxin, a neurotoxin that temporarily paralyses muscle activity. When injected into the muscles, Tox can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving you a more youthful, refreshed appearance.
What areas can tox be used for?
Tox is commonly used to treat fine lines and wrinkles in the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes. It can also be used to treat other areas of the face, such as the chin and neck.
How long does Tox last?
The effects of Tox typically last for 3-6 months, after which the treatment will need to be repeated in order to maintain the results.
Is Tox safe?
When administered by a qualified and experienced injector, Tox is generally considered safe. However, as with any medical treatment, there are potential risks and side effects to be aware of. These may include temporary bruising, redness, or swelling at the injection site, as well as more serious complications such as muscle weakness or drooping eyelids.
What should I expect during the procedure?
During the procedure, your injector will first clean the area to be treated and then inject the Tox using a fine needle. The procedure typically takes 10-15 minutes to complete and is relatively painless.
Overall, Tox can be a safe and effective way to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and achieve a more youthful, refreshed appearance. However, it’s important to be fully informed and to choose an experienced injector who can help guide you through the process.
