Botox Phoenix AZ
In the beginning, professionals researched Botox as a treatment for neurological disorders, starting in the 1960s. In 2000, when Botox was approved by the FDA, nearly 800,000 people received treatment. Over a decade later in 2012, over 6 MILLION people received treatment. As we can see, Botox has grown leaps in bounds becoming the #1 nonsurgical cosmetic treatment on the market.
There are many Botox Phoenix locations in AZ, but National Laser Institute offers Botox treatments at a fraction of the retail cost. Below we explain how Botox works in a little more detail.
How Botox Works
Botox works by preventing the contraction of facial muscles. When your medical professional injects you with your Botox units, the Botox prevents certain nerve impulses from contracting, which smooths and softens the appearance of wrinkles, giving you a fresh, rejuvenated, and youthful look.
Before Treatment
• Do not take any pain relievers that are also bloodthinners.
• Do not receive Botox if pregnant or breastfeeding
• Do not use Alpha Hydroxy Acids higher than 10% and Retinoids prior to treatment
• Your medical professional will discuss which prescription medication you cannot take before treatment
After Treatment
• Avoid laying on or touching the treated area 24 hours after treatment
• Avoid harsh exfoliants, scrubs, rough face washing after treatment
• Avoid strenuous workouts and intense physical activity
• Ice is okay for any swelling or redness
