How to Stop Drooping Eyelids

Posted on January 30th, 2019

Drooping EyelidsWhile people often use Botox injections for taking care of fine lines and wrinkles, did you know you can also use it to stop your eyelids from drooping? Botox, along with surgery, eye patches, and eye exercises, can go a long way toward sorting your problem. However, it’s first necessary to understand why you are suffering from a drooping eyelid in the first place.

When you have a drooping eyelid, you will hear medical professionals refer to it as ptosis. It can affect only one of your eyes or both, and can even cause visibility problems if your eyelid droops beyond your pupil. The cause of ptosis can vary. You may get it because your eyelid muscles are weak, or because your eyelid’s tendon muscle has separated. Ptosis is also common in people who have a neurological or muscular condition or suffered an injury or stroke.

While drooping eyelids can affect your self-esteem, it’s not something that needs to ruin your life. Instead, take care of it with Botox injections, surgery an eye patch, or eye exercises. Below, we explain how each option works.

Botox Injections

If you are looking to take care of ptosis sooner rather than later, then Botox could be something to consider. The process is straightforward, effortless, and you only need to carry out treatment every six months, approximately. What’s more, Botox injections will tighten the skin around your eyes, enhancing the results and giving you a reflection of which you can be proud.

Botox Treatment for Hyperhidrosis

Posted on January 18th, 2016

Botox Treatment for HyperhidrosisBotox can be used to treat Hyperhidrosis, or sweating of the underarm in cases where it is excessive and causing a problem.  When a person sweats excessively it can certainly ruin their life as the bacteria that thrive in perspiration cause an unpleasant odour. This can affect the person’s social life and work life as well.

The regimen for treatment of Hyperhidrosis is similar to any other kind of Botox treatment. It can be done in the doctor’s office in a very small time frame so you can go in your lunch hour and get back to work with no one else being aware of your treatment. Of course, there is always the driving time to consider.

Before having the treatment you will need to find a physician who is trained in the art of administering the injections for the best result. It must be someone who has trained for Botox treatment of hyperhidrosis; not for facial treatment of wrinkles. The doctor will discuss with you what you need to do before, during and after the treatment. This is not complicated.

Mostly you may need to go off blood thinning medications for two weeks and avoid alcohol and energetic sports on the day, or for two days before and after. There is no need to shave the underarm area, in fact, the doctor will prefer you not to do this at all. When you come for your treatment, the doctor will inject small amounts of Botox with a fine needle in a grid pattern over the underarm area. You can then go straight back to work.

Who Will Inject Your Botox – and Why it Matters

Posted on March 22nd, 2014

botox-or-fillersIf you were going into hospital to have a major operation, you would like to know the surgeon was properly trained and had lots of experience doing that particular operation, wouldn’t you? The same applies for Botox injections. Unless you have a properly trained and experienced doctor do the job, you cannot be sure it will be done properly.

Different techniques

In fact, even among trained and qualified doctors who’ve done a lot of work on wrinkles in this way, the application can vary. For instance, suppose you were having those crow’s feet at the corners of your eyes treated. Once doctor may give mini injections into each of the several wrinkles that form when you smile while another may consider just one larger injection sufficient to treat them all. Neither technique is necessarily wrong – sometimes what works on one person simply doesn’t work on another.

Botox Treatment Costs

Posted on July 17th, 2012

Asking how much a Botox treatment cost will get the same type of answer you would get from a carpet cleaner or a hairdresser about their services. They will all tell you a version of, “it depends”, and it really does depend on a lot of different factors. Botox treatments change with the neighborhood literally, the price can change with the geographical location.

You cannot find a celebrity 25 and older that has not tried it. It is easy and effective and for most to them cost is not a consideration, they will pay what it costs to stay younger looking as long as possible. And besides Botox is much less invasive and costly than plastic surgery.

The reasons that the costs vary so much is simply because every person’s needs are different. If you only need forehead shots why pay for crows feet and laugh lines and vice versa. Clinics and so called specialists often advertise on a “cost per area” basis. Doctors have said that for the best prices look for providers that charge on a “cost per unit basis”.

p3Botox is one of the most popular treatments on the market today in the fight against aging. What many users and potential users fail to realize is that there is sound science behind this little miracle.
