Wrinkle Relaxed! Some queries answered!

šŸ“–MUST READ: LOADS OF INFORMATIONšŸ“šāœØ:

Wrinkle relaxing treatment: They do wonders for the face, rejuvenates the face.

The wrinkles are caused by repeated, habitual muscle contraction over time.

Injection sites:

  • Forehead,

  • glabellar region means frown area,

  • crow's feet means sides of eyes.

1ļøāƒ£ The eyebrows should not go up and make a Spock-like appearance! See Below, our own Mr. Spock!!!


2ļøāƒ£ Some movement should be there. Reason: Frozen face is a giveaway sign, that you had anti- wrinkle injections. šŸ™‚ But then, It's your choice, how you want your want your face to beā—ļø

3ļøāƒ£ Dynamic lines are treated with the toxin injection, but static lines will only soften, they won't disappear.

4ļøāƒ£ REACHING A PLATEAU means BECOMING IMMUNE: There are many who want to have injections earlier than 3months and they are at risk of becoming IMMUNE to this toxin. šŸ”ÆWhen the injection enters our body, as it is a TOXIN, it produces antibodies- to fight the toxin. Because, it is in small amount, does not mean, that antibodies are also in small amount. šŸ”ÆIn 3 months time, they disappear, and then you have another dose of anti- wrinkle injections. šŸ”ÆThose, who have before the 3 months duration, the previous antibodies present will attack the toxin to nullify it.

So, think and STAY PUT until 3monthsā€¼ļø

Otherwise, you can pour this toxin on yourself or take a showeršŸŒ§, still you will be unaffectedā€¼ļøDO NOT TAKE UNNECESSARY RISKSā—ļø


5ļøāƒ£ Some have effects which last until 4-5monthsā—ļøšŸ˜Š I have a few ladies, who come in 4-6 months, as there face remains wrinkle-less.šŸ˜‡šŸ˜‡

6ļøāƒ£ ANTI-WRINKLE INJECTIONS FOR LADIES 60 AND OVERšŸ•‘:

According to a clinical trials, since the elderly are more likely to have thinner and less elastic skin, weaker facial muscles, and wrinkles that over time are caused by gravity-induced tissue sagging rather than muscle contraction, the elderly are not expected to respond as well to anti- wrinkle injections treatment.

The site of injection also warrants special considerations in the older patients/clients. ā©Treatment of forehead lines: would require injections to the frontalis muscle, which many older people use to raise their eyebrows and eyelids to see.

ā©Older patients/clients may also have extra skin under the brow, MEANS THEY ALREADY HAVE PTOSIS, KNOWN AS: PSEUDO-PTOSIS, which could be worsened by wrinkle-relaxing injections. Ptosis means drooping of eyelid.

ā©Older patients who receive wrinkle-relaxing injections for glabellar lines (frown area), may be more at risk for complications such as eyelid ptosis if they have a reduced or absent orbital septum (see picture).

ā©Due to thinner skin in older patients, there is risk of more bruising.

ā©Drugs and products, which thin the blood by inhibiting/preventing clotting are: ā™¦ļøVitamin E, ā™¦ļøAspirin, ā™¦ļøClopidogrel, ā™¦ļøwarfarin, ā™¦ļøNonsteroidal means anti-inflammatory drugs such as: šŸ’Š Ibuprofen, šŸ’ŠNaproxen and šŸŒæherbal products such as Ginseng, Ginko biloba, and Garlic. These products should be stopped at least 2ļøāƒ£ weeks(~10-14 days) before the wrinkle relaxing injectionsšŸ’‰

ā™¦ļøWarfarin is taken for heart conditions and patients SHOULD NOT STOP it without consultation with their CARDIAC DOCTORS. People with valve replacement, CANNOT stop the medicationsā—ļø Here, I say, TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEARTā¤ļø, which is important to live. Wrinkle relaxing injections areNOT NEEDED FOR YOU and as YOU CAN live without themā€¼ļø

ā© Conservative dosing, injection of low volumes, and proper placement of the injection can reduce the possibility of spread of the toxin to unintended muscles.

šŸ“žCall me or šŸ§°Inbox me for šŸ‘©ā€āš•ļøconsultation and/or treatmentšŸ’‰. I will give you time to thinkšŸ¤ÆšŸ¤”.

Also, will give you alternative treatment options. COMBINATION TREATMENTS WITH FILLERS OR WITH PROFHILO HAVE THE BEST OUTCOMES!ā¤ļø
