Botox - Have you Considered it?

Botox is a relatively safe cosmetic procedure, which is often used to remove wrinkles.


The applications for Botox seem endless. Since Allergan’s botulinum toxin type A received approval for use, its indications have quickly expanded


Botox, or botulinum toxin, is injected into muscles to prevent signals from getting to those muscles and in turn prevents the lines caused from muscle contractions. Botox has many uses other than facial cosmetic appearance benefits, including hyperhidrosis. With effect seen between 3-6 months (depending on dose and size of muscle)


As the body of evidence in therapeutic medicine grows, there are clear benefits in the cosmetic world for choosing Botox as a means to gain desired outcomes.


There is always some skeptisim around the use of Botox since previously in the UK practitioners did not have to be registered or trained to administer! which is crazy when you think about the physical and emotion trauma that can be inflicted if undertaking without due care.


Fear not, Botox cosmetic therapy is now governed by a new law in the UK. The proposed amendment to the Health and Care Bill is being discussed in parliament on March 1 and would give the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care the power to introduce a licensing regime.


This is huge progress in the aesthetic world and once GRB Health welcome with open arms.
