What is Botox Made Of?
Botox's active ingredient, onabotulinumtoxinA, is derived from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. The neurotoxin has been proven to have beneficial medical and cosmetic effects.
To clean the bacterium and make it safe for injection, the manufacturer uses a series of acid precipitations. Botox is available in vials containing 0.5 milligrams of albumin and 0.9 milligrams of sodium chloride.
Medspas only utilize Botox that has been made in accordance with strict safety and quality standards. Products purchased online or through salons are not held to these standards.
What is it Used For?
Botox Cosmetic is the first FDA-approved treatment for glabellar frown lines and crow's feet. These are facial wrinkles that appear on the forehead and between the eyes, and creases that form at the corners of the eyes. Millions of people have also had success using Botox to treat wrinkles around the mouth and lips, mid-face, and lower face, as well as for excessive sweat and thin lips.
When we age, our body's natural collagen production often decreases, resulting in the skin being less elastic. Muscles that get used often such as those in the face will experience more creases and age lines. Botox Cosmetic temporarily paralyzes these muscles when injected into them.
The treatment provides stress relief for the muscles and results in a smoother appearance. Botox treatments can help prevent new wrinkles from forming and reverse existing age lines.
How Botox Works
Our natural collagen production declines as we age. This causes skin elasticity to deteriorate. Muscles that are frequently utilized move repetitively, causing creases and lines in the skin.
Botox Cosmetic temporarily immobilizes and relaxes the muscles that cause wrinkles and age lines. This procedure relieves muscle stress and pressure, resulting in a smoother, more refreshed appearance. Botox can both repair existing wrinkles and prevent new age lines from appearing.
Benefits of Botox
There are many benefits to choosing Botox Cosmetic as a treatment for wrinkles. To start, it is a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment option. Most people don't need to take any time off work or worry about any downtime at all. Some patients even decide to have the treatment done during their lunch hour on a normal workday.
Besides treating wrinkles on areas of the face like the forehead and crow's feet, Botox can also drastically improve your mood. Imagine how much this procedure could boost your confidence!
Since Botox is the oldest and most popular FDA-approved prescription treatment for wrinkles and age lines, many people consider it a brand that delivers predictable and reliable results. Patients and providers alike recognize and trust the brand.
What Does the Research Say About Botox?
Botox was licensed by the FDA as an injectable in 1989. It was later cleared for cosmetic usage by regulators. Botox providers have spent decades honing their skills in order to maximize the safety and effectiveness of the injections. The drug has numerous applications, both cosmetic and medicinal.
Botox in various forms and doses is used by providers to prevent persistent migraines in adults, correct dynamic wrinkles, and address other medical issues and symptoms of aging.
Botox has been embraced by both providers and patients because it produces reliable results. Researchers analyzed 945 patients' self-reported satisfaction with Botox cosmetic improvements in 2016 and found a 96.0% to 98.9% satisfaction rate.
Every medical intervention has some risk of negative side effects. Fortunately, the chances of experiencing them as a result of Botox treatment are relatively low. The most common adverse effect is an injection site reaction, which normally goes away on its own after a few days.
The medical community agrees that visiting a seasoned provider like Bella Medspa will reduce your odds of complications.
What are the Ideal Botox Treatment Areas?
Botox Cosmetic is an excellent treatment for wrinkles and age lines on various parts of the face. The forehead, frown lines between the eyes and brows, and crows feet at the corners of the eyes are the most commonly treated areas.
Botox may also be used to treat the mid-face region, lips, mouth, chin, and neck. Finally, Botox can be used in conjunction with other wrinkle treatments like dermal fillers to treat those areas.
Risks and Side Effects
That being said, Botox is considered one of the safest options available to treat age lines and wrinkles. Most people, including patients and physicians, would recommend Botox over alternative therapies since it's a non-surgical option.
Some side effects of the procedure include mild pin prick, discomfort, bruising, and swelling at the site of the injections. Usually, these types of symptoms subside within a few days. Patients may also have headaches, dry eyes, swollen and drooping eyelids, and/or fatigue.
As with any severe symptoms, patients should contact a medical provider if they become too much to handle. If you experience an allergic reaction such as hives or asthma, go to the ER immediately.
What Happens During a Botox Injectable Treatment Session?
Prior to treating a patient, most Botox providers will schedule a consultation visit with them. You will discuss the best treatment options and regions for you at this visit. Your provider will also go over your medical history, as well as any allergies or other adverse effects you may experience after your treatment session.
They will also discuss how many units of Botox Cosmetic you may require to achieve your desired results, and the projected cost of utilizing a topical numbing lotion.
The treatment itself usually only takes 5-15 minutes. Your medical professional will examine the areas to be injected and then administer numbing cream to them. Botox Cosmetic treatments employ a very thin needle that is carefully inserted into the target locations by your esthetician. There is very little discomfort, especially if you opt for a numbing treatment.

Who is a good candidate for Botox?
Botox Cosmetic treatments have been approved for patients 18 years old and older. Aside from the age requirement, there are very few restrictions determining who can benefit from Botox. Patients of all ages have enjoyed a more youthful appearance and brighter attitude after Botox treatments.
If you're allergic to Botox or any of its ingredients or suffer from a skin infection, you should talk to your medical provider before considering Botox Cosmetic treatments.
Does Botox treatment hurt?
Botox Cosmetic is injected into the skin and muscles with a thin, fine needle. Practitioners who are experienced in administering Botox treatments will know how to strategically administer the injections so as to inflict minimal pain.
Your medical provider can use a topical numbing cream to reduce pain. They can also apply ice packs before and after the procedure. This will help reduce discomfort and other side effects like redness and swelling at the injection sites.
The procedure is usually very quick--itcan usually be completed within 5-15 minutes depending on how many units of Botox you're receiving.
How long do results last?
Most medical providers tell their patients that Botox Cosmetic treatments can last for three to six months. On average, patients experience optimal results within the first four months. If you want to continue a treatment plan, you may choose to schedule extra follow-up treatments.
Most patients will need two to four treatments a year to maintain their desired results, though some medical providers may recommend more frequent appointments. Having the procedure repeated more often may result in fewer Botox units being used during each treatment.
How much does Botox cost in Pennsylvania?
The costs of Botox Cosmetic treatments will vary depending on several factors. How many units of the medication you need to achieve your desired results is the most significant one. The more units you and your medical provider agree are necessary, the higher the cost will be.
Other factors that affect the cost include how experienced your practitioner is and the geographical area in which you live.
Since the procedure is elective and cosmetic, most medical insurance providers won't cover the cost. Still, you should always check with your medical insurance to see if they will cover any part of Botox Cosmetic treatments.
