What Is Discreet Or "baby Botox"?

By Denise Sendora


When it comes to enhancing the cosmetic appearance of the skin, botox injections have become an everyday treatment. Not only is treatment safe and effective, it is also extremely affordable, making more and more people opt for this treatment today. A small amount of 'stigma' still seems to be attached to botox injections though, and it is evident when someone has had botox treatment because the change is visible.

Discreet or 'baby' botox injections are available these days, however. Let's take a brief look at this.

What is baby botox?

While botox treatment improves the appearance of lines and wrinkles, people who receive botox injections like to keep their natural look. Aimed at getting rid of almost all lines and wrinkles on the face, current botox treatments can result in a look that can to some appear unnatural. Alternatively, baby botox treats only a few lines and wrinkles, while keeping some natural expression lines.

What does baby botox treatment target?

Mostly, baby botox treatments treat a few wrinkles on the forehead, as well as crow's feet (fine lines and wrinkles seen at the corner of the eyes) and frown lines. Areas that are not injected include those such as under the eyes. One area that can have remarkable effects on overall appearance of the patient is the eyebrow - it may be injected to help open up the eyes. In a nutshell, treatments are strategically limited to only certain areas of the face, preserving the natural look while offering all the benefits that botox brings with it.

Advantages

As is the case with botox injections, patients report a significant improvement in their look and feel a lot younger following baby botox treatments. Confidence levels are also a lot higher as their natural look is preserved as some of the common wrinkles are still present.

Baby botox injection risks

Regular botox treatment poses the same risks as baby botox because the nature of the injection given is the same. Patients report mild bruising and bleeding at the site of injection, which resolves spontaneously without leaving any scars. The procedure is performed under sterile conditions, so infections are rare. There are hardly any reported cases of severe reactions, but allergic reactions could occur to components within the botox injection, although these are rare.

Conclusion

Because it preserves the patient's natural look, while getting rid of most of the fine wrinkles on the face, baby botox is becoming more and more popular. No doubt many patients may prefer this treament in future.
