The Increasing Botox Trend

By Ariel Mernal


People today know that botox injection procedures are fast and easy, and make the skin look more youthful. Wrinkles and fine lines in the face become quite a big concern for ageing people, so many of them are utilizing the latest advances in cosmetic treatments, and that means getting botox injections. There was a time when people may have thought that botox was a trend that would disappear, but people now realize that it is not going anywhere.

You may have read about it in the news or even seen it on television - more and more celebrities are now using botox injections to maintain their young looks and skin. There are those who are thinking about the popularity of botox, and wondering why it has gotten so widely accepted.

There is a very basic reason for this. Botox is a cheap and effective solution to ageing skin. The entire procedure only takes a few minutes, is cheap and does not produce any scarring that may be associated with plastic surgery. Celebrities have made botox a household name, and because of this, many more people are now choosing to undergo these treatments.

Do Men get Botox?

Many people think that botox is only something that women are interested in, but this is not true. The facts show something else, entirely. Women are still more likely to get botox than men, but it is becoming more widely accepted for men to receive the treatments as well. There are those in the media who have coined the term 'bro-tox'. Some clinics now report that up to 50% of their patients undergoing botox are male!

Trends are changing

The fact is, botox usage is going up. It is estimated that the number of men and women who underwent botox injection rose from 2010 to 2011 by around 5% - that's a rise from 5.4 million to 5.7 million people. Other statistics say that it's 10% that it has been going up, year by year. This is not a shock to anyone. There used to be those in society that looked down upon people who have botox treatments, and it was thought to only be done by the richest people, but this is no longer the case, and it is becoming widely accepted by people of all classes and economic situations. This procedure has become quite mainstream and popular.

That is only part of the story. Not only are botox treatments used to help those who have cosmetic issues, they are used for muscle spasticity disorders as well. Spastic paraparesis and cerebral palsy for adults and children, and blepharospasm are included in the other treatments that botox can be helpful for. The benefits are looking good and the results are more than satisfactory. Migraines have been known to be reduced using scalp injections of botox, as well as excessive sweating and other issues.

There is no doubt that the future is bright for botox. Research is ongoing into looking at newer applications, and the results so far are promising.
