Preventative Botox: How Botox Can Help Prevent Aging

Home / Botox Injectables / Preventative Botox: How Botox Can Help Prevent Aging

There are some misconceptions surrounding preventative Botox treatments and what age is appropriate to start doing treatments. Experts suggest preventative Botox treatments for aging and recommend getting treatments when static lines start to develop on the face. There are multiple muscles in our face that we use for expression and to create facial movement.

 

Over time and with repetitive use of these muscles can cause wrinkling and the permanent formation of lines, which are called static lines. Static lines are present on the face even without the individual creating any expressions or facial movements. To prevent the worsening or deepening of these wrinkles, preventative Botox treatments are suggested.

Botox is a neuromodulator that works at the neuromuscular junction to prevent the release of a neurotransmitter that controls facial movement. Blocking these transmitters temporarily prevents the movement of these muscles.

Preventative Botox treatments take a few days to get into the muscles, and its duration is about 3-4 months. This period of muscle relaxation prevents new static lines and wrinkles from forming and can also smooth out existing wrinkles.

When individuals are consistent with their preventative Botox treatment plan of re-injection every 3-4 months, they can expect the facial muscles to atrophy over time and shrink in size. This will result in prolonged prevention of aging and wrinkle formation, as the facial muscles will not be as strong in creating facial movement and deep wrinkles.

Dosing of Neuromodulators

One of the most well-known myths of Botox is that it may lead to a “frozen face” appearance. A good injector can determine the proper dose. Neuromodulators should relax your muscles and smooth your fine lines for 3-4 months. If the dose is too low, your muscles will continue to move, and your results will not last as long as expected. If the dose is too high, you can end up being too frozen.

Neuromodulators are dosed in ‘units’. Each treatment area has a standard amount of units that are required to achieve optimal results. These standard units are customized based on the age of the patient and the strength of the muscle. Stronger muscles may require more units to achieve the best result.

What to Expect from Preventative Botox Treatments

For preventative Botox Treatments, Injecting neuromodulators is the method of administration; yet, the syringes are so small that they feel nothing more than a mosquito bite. Within three to five days following the procedure, the drug will begin to relax the affected muscles, and within two weeks, it will take full action. The benefits wear off gradually, lasting four months on average.

The following are things to anticipate from your treatment:

  1. We’ll cleanse and sterilize your skin.
  2. To map out the muscles to be injected, the practitioner will ask you to create various facial expressions. During this procedure, they may mark the locations of their injections.
  3. The right amount of units will be administered to each injection site.
