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. Jaw clenching and teeth grinding can also be treated with it. Botox has been found useful for treating a range of other aesthetic and physical complaints, but that's not to say it isn't a fabulous option for smoothing out wrinkles too. A more youthful appearance can be a result of Botox treatment, but so can sculpting of your features, easing of physical pain, and even improvement to your smile. Here are a variety of uses for Botox:

Overactive Bladder

Yes, Botox can even help a problematic and embarrassing medical condition. A small amount is injected into the muscles of the bladder by a doctor; this helps them relax and prevents the contraction that causes the need to urinate frequently. It is a fairly simple procedure with results that can last more than six months. People who undergo this treatment will find the quality of their lives has vastly improved, and they'll feel overall much more comfortable.

Excessive Sweating

Excessive sweating can be both embarrassing and irritating. There may be different parts of your body where you get sweats. The underarms and face are the two most common places in your body for sweating. As soon as possible, each and every person wants to get rid of this embarrassing problem. The condition of too much sweating is also known as hyperhidrosis. Sometimes the problem occurs due to medical condition while sometimes due to other reasons. The results of treatment last 12 to 15 months, so for continued effects after that you must repeat the injections.

Migraines

Pain relief from migraines is another benefit of Botox. The debilitating pain that results from this condition is understood by anyone who has ever suffered from a migraine. Migraine pain can be treated with Botox injections, although we don't know yet exactly why this works. It is possible that this simple technique blocks the sensory nerves that send pain signals to your brain, treating the migraine. The toxin is also thought to relax muscles, which reduce the sensitivity to the pain during a migraine. Use of Botox in the treatment of migraines has been reported to cause their reduction by half or more.

Botox is still the number one anti-ageing weapon used by celebrities, research shows. The skin can develop a stiff, marble-like look, so the trick is not too use too much. 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.
