It's not just for woman any longer. There is the need and desire among men to look younger. As a result, they are turning to Botox in record numbers. When you look at the numbers, the trend is obvious and only growing. The numbers are quite impressive. Some industry reports have estimated that the numbers have tripled in the past six years. At that time, that was about a half a million men, or roughly 10% of all Botox injections.
A lot of reasons are cited to explain the large growing segment of the market that is now looking for youth enhancing procedures. One main reason is that a lot of men are being introduced to it by their wives, who are more aware and sensitive to the impact of frown lines or those deep forehead lines that can make them look much older. The social stigma of not appearing to care about how they look is no longer in fashion for men. Appearance matters and it is becoming evident in study after study.
The rough economy that we've been experience has left a lot of men unemployed who never had to worry about their jobs or looking young. They need to appear to be capable of meeting the challenges of any job. A youthful appearance won't replace quality, but it will help with perception and perception matters in any economy. Botox can give them that added competitive edge in a business world that seems to be getting just as youth-conscious as the rest of the world.
Botox Basics
Botox Cosmetic is an injected liquid used to treat frown lines, squint and smile lines, nasal crunch lines, and horizontal forehead wrinkles. The lines or wrinkles are diminished because the related muscles are targeted with Botox. This relaxes the muscle and the relaxation impacts the lines.
Thousands of patients have been treated medically and cosmetically with Botox. It has over twenty years of a safety record, which is exceptional. Botox is produced in a laboratory by a bacterium called clostridium botulinum. In very strict controlled conditions it is being produced in a purified form.
Botox Risks
There is always a risk of allergy with any medication one uses and you should be mindful of this. In the case of Botox, this is minimal; because Botox is not made from an animal, most people do not have any allergic reaction to the product.
Botox is Affordable
The cost of your Botox treatment will depend upon your anatomy as well as the area being treated. Of course, frown muscles, which are relatively large, will require more Botox to be injected and that will impact the price point. Age is also an important factor, as the frown lines tend to deepen with age. Don't expect long standing deep lines to disappear after your first treatment. These will certainly be softened but will require follow up to eliminate them. Naturally, it's important to repeat your Botox treatment after it wears off. Each additional treatment will further reduce the frown lines. About twenty units of Botox is used for an average female frown line. As some doctors charge for Botox by the unit, the costs can vary widely. You should be aware of this and consult with your doctor for details.
