In the wise words of Vogue: “great skin is the ultimate accessory.” But the effects of Botox aren’t just skin-deep; there are also some surprising health advantages of this increasingly popular cosmetic procedure. Wondering how Botox may benefit more than your beauty?
Looking Good is Empowering
The most obvious benefit of Botox is its ability to transform your look. However, have you ever considered the way it may make you feel? Serving as an anti-aging treatment to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, Botox provides you with a more rejuvenated complexion so that your inner youth can shine through. To put it into qualitative data, many patients reported higher self-esteem and improved confidence levels after the treatment.
Quick & (Relatively) Painless Procedures
Have an appointment at 6 and date night at 7? No problem. This non-invasive cosmetic procedure only takes minutes when performed by a professional, and it requires zero downtime so that you can go about your day as normal. There’s also no need to worry about any scarring or bruising, and you’ll only have to wait around 3–7 days to experience maximum radiance.
It’s Not All About Aesthetics
An undeniable staple of cosmetic enhancement, Botox equally serves as an FDA-approved treatment for various health concerns. It can be prescribed for chronic migraines, excessive sweating, and severe neck spasms as it relaxes the muscles in these areas. Based on the facial feedback hypothesis, a 2014 study reported that 74 people with major depressive disorder found that 52% of people who received botox reported a drop in symptoms six weeks later. These results really give the “when you look good, you feel good” theory some substance!
“Botox Saved My Life!”
It’s not just the end results that may boost health. Because you receive Botox several times throughout the year, this treatment serves as an indirect preventative measure for skin cancer. Having a professional check over your face and body helps you spot irregular moles and suspicious spots in areas out of view. Some clients at Majestic Aesthetics have even championed Botox as a “life-saver,” after our certified cosmetic nurse Laura referred them to a dermatologist who later diagnosed them with treatable melanoma.
