Avoiding Bad Botox: Steps to Take
Dr. Arash Akhavan provides safe Botox treatments in NYC. It has become the preferred wrinkle and facial rejuvenation solution in our era where everyone is focused on the health of their skin–and rightly so! They want to ensure their skin is youthful looking, smooth and wrinkle-free. The high degree of skin care exhibited by people here can be especially daunting if you are not comfortable with your appearance.
What is the secret elixir here? Some would claim healthy eating. Others, exercise. And then there are people who will let you in on the real deal—Botox.
You decide to get the treatment yourself. After all, you want to look your best. But there’s a problem. When you Google the term “Botox” you see results that send a chill down your spine. It looks like someone decided to be funny and Photoshop images of the Jigsaw Killer with Chucky from Child’s Play.
Not only is the unnerving, it makes you wonder if you really should go for that procedure. Maybe your fine lines aren’t so bad. These are examples of a Botox gone wrong because individuals went for the wrong one!
At the Dermatology and Laser Group, we want to help you avoid bad botox. Here’s what you need to do:
Research, Research, Research!
If you really want the best treatment, you have to dive deep into it and look at your options! Don’t opt for just any treatment; look into what you really want. The important part is that you don’t get Botox that make it look like…well, you’ve gotten Botox.
Therefore, researching is the key. For example, did you know that there’s hundreds of potential uses for Botox? Make sure you read up on what the treatment procedures are, what the dermatologist will ask you, the dos and don’ts, etc. There are a lot of myths regarding Botox as well. You should be as informed as possible to have the best possible outcome.
Opt for a Dermatologist Who is Experienced
You wouldn’t purchase makeup that does not have positive reviews. Getting the right Botox treatment is like purchasing the right foundation. You have to look into your options and read reviews. If your dermatologist is an unknown and emerging doctor, you don’t want to experiment with your skin.
Instead, opt for someone who is well-known, experienced and can provide you with all the information you need. You’ll feel better and happier!
After all, we’ve heard about celebrities and countless others who have trusted the wrong person for their cosmetic surgery and ended up paying for it. Take that extra step to ensure that does not happen to you. We’ve treated countless “bad Botox” or “botox gone wrong” cases. We reiterate the importance of taking the safe route and seeing a Botox doctor, even if it is not us.
Stop Taking Medication That Can Thin the Blood
A week before your BOTOX® Cosmetic appointment, make sure you stop taking anything that thins your blood! Anything from vitamin E tablets, to aspirin or ibuprofen! Discuss with your physician and be straightforward with them. They will be able to guide on medicines that need to be stopped before your cosmetic surgery!
