Keeping your skin looking smooth, youthful, and wrinkle-free has been made immensely more accessible through the advent of modern facial fillers and injectables. You’re likely already familiar with several popular facial fillers, specifically one called BOTOX®. But what you may not be familiar with is just how versatile BOTOX can actually be for many applications.
BOTOX is a simple, purified protein that effectively relaxes facial muscles for a number of purposes, such as:
For Beauty
Of course, BOTOX® Cosmetic has made itself a household name as a facial filler used for improving the look of people’s faces and helping to restore their former youthful visage. By relaxing various muscles within a patient’s face, wrinkles and fine lines can be smoothed out. But BOTOX can offer a lot more than just aesthetic aid.
For Excessive Sweating
BOTOX is also commonly used for the treatment of hyperhidrosis, a condition that causes excessive sweating in specific individuals. This condition can range from being a simple nuisance to a source of chronic discomfort and unhappiness. But how does BOTOX help with that?
Once injected, the proteins block (although not permanently) the mixed signals that cause a given patient’s nerves to overstimulate the sweat glands—thus, no more excessive sweating.
For Jaw Pain
The same properties of BOTOX that help resolve fine lines and facial wrinkles can also be used to combat jaw pain caused by teeth grinding (also known as bruxism). By relaxing the masseter muscle (the one that functionally serves to move your jaw) with a handful of tiny injections, it has been shown that involuntary can be reduced.
For Headaches
Finally, BOTOX can also be used to treat chronic headaches and migraines. Whether your headaches are caused by the bruxism that is making you grind your teeth or there is some other issue causing them, Botox can once again be utilized for its muscle-relaxing properties to relieve those bothersome migraines.
