Botox treatments, if performed correctly, can reduce signs of aging, giving you a more youthful and vibrant appearance. However, to avoid any complications that may arise from Botox, it's important to be aware of some key factors about this type of treatment before undergoing it. Here are 5 things to know before getting Botox, according to The Times of India:
1. **Drooping Eyebrows**: Incorrect treatment can cause unexpected damage to the eyebrows. Injecting Botox into the wrong muscle and too deeply can lead to drooping brows.
2. **Skin Hardening**: This is a result of excessive injection of Botox units into the skin, especially in commercial beauty clinics that lack adequate expertise.
3. **Wrinkles on the Lips**: Sometimes, the upper lip can become wrinkled after Botox injections aimed at reducing wrinkles and fine lines.
4. **Drooping Lips**: This occurs when excessive Botox is injected around the eyes and flows down to the facial muscles, often causing the patient's smile to tilt to one side.
5. **Painful Bumps on the Forehead**: This happens when Botox is injected superficially into the skin by practitioners who lack sufficient experience.
