For years, many have assumed that BOTOX is something that only women do. And, it’s correct to an extent: only about seven percent of BOTOX patients are men. However, more and more men are getting interested in BOTOX. A few of the reasons:

Looking younger gives you a competitive edge.

Studies show that men who appear younger are more likely to get hired.

There’s less stigma attached to men getting cosmetic procedures.

In the past, it was considered effeminate for men to do cosmetic procedures. As women’s roles have changed, men have realized that they do not need to restrict themselves in this area.

BOTOX is quick and easy.

BOTOX can be administered in about 15 minutes and results are usually seen within 10-14 days. Very few patients experience side effects, and the ones that do occur are mild.

BOTOX is cost-effective.

While prices vary throughout the country, average price for a unit in Los Angeles is $9-$14. Most patients need approximately 20 units to eliminate frown lines.

Botox injections are one of the most common cosmetic procedures worldwide. However, just because they are readily available does not mean that every practitioner who performs them is the same. There’s a lot to consider when you are trying to pick a provider who could give you great results with minimal risk:

1. Do not go to a home Botox party.
A party is not likely to be a sterile environment, so it brings a risk of infection. If you are at someone’s home instead of a licensed facility, you will not be able to get help quickly enough in the unlikely (but still possible) event of a complication or an allergic reaction.

2. Aestheticians are not permitted to give Botox in California.
Here in Los Angeles, we have some of the most stringent rules in the nation to assure that Botox and other cosmetic treatments are performed safely. If your provider is not a physician or a nurse working under the supervision of one, he or she is not legally
qualified to give you Botox treatments.

3. Pick the practitioner people trust.
Study reviews before settling on a Botox provider. A good practitioner will have positive reviews from a large number of patients, going back several years.

Considering Botox? These ten facts can help you understand the procedure better:

1. The procedure is quick.

We spend some time discussing your treatment goals and answering your questions. The injections themselves take only about 10 minutes.

2. Discomfort is minimal.

Most people describe the sensation as a small pinch. We use topical numbing agents to minimize any pain you might feel.

3. It won’t disrupt your routine.

In general, there is no reason you should not be able to go right back to your daily routine immediately after a Botox treatment. Some patients even get it done during their lunch hour.

4. Chances are good you’ll experience mild or no side effects.

Three out of four patients say they experience no side effects at all after getting Botox treatments. People who do experience side effects usually have some mild facial discomfort and stiffness.

5. Botox won’t break the bank.

Most people think that cosmetic procedures are expensive. However, Botox costs as little as $9 a unit. You can see great results for as little as $200 per treatment.

6. You’ll still look like you.

Botox doesn’t significantly change your appearance. It just eases frown lines to give you the smoother, younger look you used to have.

7. You’ll be joining a big club.

With 6.6 billion treatments performed in 2014 alone, Botox is the world’s most popular cosmetic treatment.

8. This quick procedure provides lasting results.

People continue to see benefits from Botox treatments for up to four months. Most people find that it’s time for another treatment after around 12-16 weeks.

9. You’ll see results quickly.

Botox results become apparent in as little as 2-4 days. The full effect can sometimes take up to two weeks.

10. You’re going to love it.

Eighty percent of people who get Botox are happy with the results.

Not all Laser Hair Removal providers give you the same quality of service. Patient’s skin tone and technician’s experience play a big role in a successful treatment.

Botox has become a household name, but there are still many things that people do not know about it. Read on to cut through the myths and to learn more about this popular treatment.

Botox Is Celebrating an Anniversary This Year

Botox was first approved for cosmetic use in 2002. Since then, millions of people have used this simple procedure to smooth away crow’s feet, frown lines and creases. Within the first ten years of its cosmetic use, it became the most popular cosmetic treatment, worldwide.

Is Botox Use Just Cosmetic?

While this is the application that gets the most press, Botox is also a valuable medication for people who suffer from maladies that involve overactive muscle movement. Painful conditions like neck and face spasms can be corrected with the use of Botox. Botox also helps with facial asymmetry by temporarily paralyzing affected muscles. In 2010, Botox was also approved as a treatment for chronic migraines.

Botox Is The Most Popular Cosmetic Treatment Around

Over 11,000,000 people worldwide have used Botox, with 6.6 billion getting the treatment in 2014 alone. While most people who seek Botox treatment are women, men are exploring this cosmetic treatment, as well. Currently, about 7% of people who get Botox are men.

Botox Is Affordable

One of the reasons for Botox’s massive popularity is its low cost. While prices vary throughout the country, a unit of Botox costs anywhere from $9 to $14 in the Los Angeles area. A typical treatment for a frown line will take approximately 20 units, allowing you to get great results for as little as $200 for the treatment.

Botox Is Safe and Effective

Most people who seek out Botox treatment see an effect within a week. Around four out of five people say that they are satisfied with the results they get from Botox. Seventy-five percent of patients experience no side effects. The most common side effects are mild ones that include nausea or indigestion, facial pain or stiff muscles near the injection site.
