3 Lesser-Known Benefits of Botox That May Surprise You

Merely following a multi-step beauty routine every day does not ensure healthy-looking skin always. With age, our skin loses its elasticity and does not remain as firm as it used to be. It is a natural process and cannot be avoided with an extensive beauty routine. The fine lines around the eyes and wrinkles on the face are a signal that your skin needs more than just cleaning and moisturizing. To postpone the impending natural course of the skin- ageing, people often resort to injectables such as Botox, to get back that supple skin.

Most people just know Botox as a treatment used to fight the signs of ageing and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Despite being widely used in anti-ageing treatment, what most people don't know is the many additional benefits it offers to the users. These off-label uses are lesser-known but very effective. In this blog, we will discuss some of the hidden benefits of Botox Manchester.


What does Botox do exactly?


Our face has many nerve endings sending multiple signals to our face muscles through neurotransmitters. Botox acts as a neurotoxin which blocks the nerve signals telling your muscles to contract. This blockage helps in easing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

But that is not it! There are several other uses of botox which are just not that popular or are known to only a few people. Let us look at some of the uses of Botox Manchester that do not involve ageing issues.


  1. Useful in Hyperhidrosis or excessive sweating:


Hyperhidrosis is a medical term for excessive sweating which can cause feelings of shame and embarrassment in people. Thanks to the advancements in the medical world, there are several options available to treat it including botox. Yes, botox can treat hyperhidrosis! The benefit came to light when doctors working on botox treatment for facial spasms realized that it also caused their patients to sweat less. After this discovery, botox was officially approved as a legitimate treatment for severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis in 2004.


  1. Helps relieve migraines and headaches:


Excessive use of technology also has some downsides to it. It has made people susceptible to more physical ailments than before. Although, there are many factors responsible for a migraine attack, continuous usage of smart devices is said to be the biggest culprit. The throbbing pain caused by migraine can interfere with the day to day activities of the sufferer. And the good news is that Botox can reduce the frequency of these recurrent, nuisance inducing headaches. FDA approved the medical usage of Botox in treating migraine and headaches back in 2010.  


  1. Keeping an overactive bladder in check: 


An overactive bladder is a commonly occurring medical condition causing the sudden need to urinate in people. Ageing, diabetes and an enlarged prostate can all cause this condition. It is more prevalent in women than men and if left untreated, it can even cause urine incontinence. There are many pelvic floor exercises that are recommended to keep the bladder under control. Studies have also found small doses of Botox helpful in treating OAB. It is an FDA approved treatment which works by increasing the bladder's urine storage.


These were some of the hidden benefits of Botox which not many people know. If you’re suffering from any one of these and are looking for a foolproof solution to them, then you know where to go!
