Fun BOTOX facts to share!
1. Botox Cosmetic is responsible for the aesthetic industry and is one of the most popular cosmetic treatments in the world. Botox is the number one non-surgical procedure on the market today
2. Botox Cosmetic received its first FDA approval in 2002
3. The cosmetic applications of Botox weren’t realized until the 1990’s
a. Botox’s original uses included treating imbalanced eye muscles, double vision, and muscle spasms. Botox’s ability to prevent muscle contractions led Dr. Jean Carruthers to the realization that patients’ wrinkles became less pronounced following treatment for their muscle conditions. Botox quickly gained traction as a cosmetic procedure in the 90’s and was FDA approved April 15, 2002.
4. Botox Cosmetic is the one and only neurotoxin with 3 FDA approved indications
5. Botox Cosmetic is distributed to 98 countries worldwide. Over 100,000,000 vials of Botox have been manufactured worldwide.
6. Just how Big is 100 Million- Botox is 1.5” tall. 100 Million Botox vials stacked on top of each other = Mount Everest 430 times
7. Botox as a weapon
a. While Botox is certainly a weapon against wrinkles, botulinum toxin was once researched as a form of biological weaponry during World War II
8. Botox adheres to the highest standards of clinical quality
a. As an FDA approved substance, Botox is under strict regulation and monitoring to ensure every vial is produced in a sterile environment with exact amounts of each ingredient. From purified air in the production area to full-coverage suits for the safety and sterility of the trained technicians, the environment for which Botox is produced guarantees quality control. Allergan has a dedicated quality assurance department and consistently exceeds FDA guidelines for drug manufacturing safety and cleanliness
9. Botox is safe and effective and still being researched and improved
a. Botox has a long history, over two decades, and has had extensive research and clinical trials, making it one of the safest cosmetic procedures today. It has a very high success rate and treats a surprising range of cosmetic & medical conditions.
b. There are over 3900 journal articles featuring Botox & Botox Cosmetic
c. Botox has FDA approved indications in pediatrics, again making it one of the safest treatments available
10. Botox fits into busy schedules.
Since Botox is administered with just a short series of injections, your Botox appointment will typically last no longer than 15-30 min. Botox does not cause any lingering visual side effects like redness or swelling, so you will be able to return to your daily activities immediately. The only time we recommend you avoid Botox is immediately before or after exercising
11. Botox won’t leave you looking stiff or frozen.
When Botox is administered by a properly trained professional, your results will be absolutely natural and will not interfere with your facial expressions. The key to creating beautiful results from Botox is knowing where to place each injection and what dosage to use in each location.
12. More men are getting Botox than ever before
13. Botox Cosmetic is long-lasting.
The effects of a single injection can last three to four months. Making regular visits to your injector is the best way to maintain your youthful look. Luckily, Botox is an affordable, minimally invasive process that feels like nothing more than a pinprick
14. Botox does not damage skin.
The purpose of Botox is to prevent muscle contractions that cause frown lines and crow’s feet
15. Botox is not a type of filler.
Botox does not add volume to the face, it reduces lines by relaxing muscles
16. Botox takes longer than fillers to see results.
Fillers, once they are injected, work instantly. However, Botox begins to show results within 24-48 hours, full effect can take up to 10-14 days.
17. Botox is trusted!
In a recent survey, approximately 8 out of 10 physicians (of 484 surveyed) report it’s the neurotoxin they use when injecting for themselves or family members
