Frecuently Asked Questions about "Male Botox"- What is la botulinum toxin (Botox® o Vistabel®)?
- It is a natural protein obtained from Clostridium Botullinum. It is denaturalized and used in small doses. It is used to relax (not to paralyze) the chosen muscles of the face. Thanks to the mechanisms of defense of our body, the muscles restore, so its action is reversible.
- How is this technique performed?
- It consists in the injection of very small quantities of botulinum toxin (Vistabel) in the muscles which cause the appearance of non-desired wrinkles. It is a selective treatment, since it only affects those muscles we want to relax. We block the release of neurotransmitters prohibiting then the transmission of the nervous signal so that the chosen muscles get relaxed.
- It is recommended to...
- Men who have evident creases in the upper part of their face (forehead, the space between our eyebrows), crows feet near the eyes. We can also use Vistabel to lift the edge of our eyebrow, resculpting our image.
- It is not recommended if...
- The patient is over 65, unless he accepts that the results will last a very short period of time, and that he will have to be applied Vistabel more often.
- If the patient is taking muscles relaxants or antibiotics (spectinomycin o aminoglucosides), he is allergic to the proteins of eggs or have a neuromuscular disease, he will have to inform the doctor to value the viability of this treatment.
- Advantages of this technique against other ones:
- Its simple application (it does not require local anesthesia), the low risk of further problems, and the almost immediate result.
- Schedule of Male Botox:
- The results of the injection start being visible 2 or 4 days later. There is almost no swelling, and you do not need to hide at home. The effects are not perceptible when you go out of the clinic, but some days later. In this way, the patients private life is preserved. The maximum effect is perceptible two or three weeks later. The first injection normally lasts 3 or 4 months with increasing duration periods in further injections. After several injections, always taking into account the intervals of time necessary between them, sometimes we obtain long-lasting effects.
- No convalescence is necessary, since you can resume to your normal activity (eating or even working). During some hours after the injection, you must avoid movements which will extend the medication to other non-desired areas (not receiving facial massages, no rubbing your eyes or the treated skin; sports are not recommended as well as going to bed 4 or 5 hours after the treatment).
- Is it painful?
- It does not hurt. You can feel some discomfort during the infiltration. Extremely fine needles are used, and Vistabel can only develop a temporary and light stinging sensation.
- Complications:
- The risk of using this toxine in the treatment of wrinkles is minimum. The toxic dose is by far higher than the one we use to treat wrinkles. Side effects are normally palbebral ptosis or the fallen of the eyesbrows edge. But at any case, they will be transitory.
- Repetition of treatment
- You can repeat it, but it is necessary to wait at least 4 months.
- Duration and sessions:
- The treatment will consist of three sessions. During the first one, we will make the medical history. In the second, the injection will be performed; finally, during the third session we will check the result. In general, fifteen days later.
