Plastic Surgery In Uruguay

 

Unlike hyaluronic acid, whose action is to fill in wrinkles to restore volume, botox or botulinum toxin relaxes the muscles to treat wrinkles in Uruguay. The face is smoothed and appears less tired. With respect to the doses, it is quite possible to obtain a natural result with the injection of botox.

 

Botox Injection in Uruguay

 

This involves injecting a product under the skin intended to relax the muscles so as to reduce wrinkles in the upper part of the face without freezing it and creating a lifting effect in Uruguay. The product in question is botox in the form of a white powder whose active ingredient is botulinum toxin type A.

 

The injection aims to block transmission between nerves and muscles. For this, botox blocks the production of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that plays a role in muscle activity. Exaggerated contraction of certain muscles in fact leads to the appearance of wrinkles. The muscles targeted by the injection then react instantly and are relaxed, causing deep wrinkles to disappear.

 

To avoid any complications in Uruguay, it is necessary to respect a certain dosage, hence the importance of turning to a professional. The 50 U vials of toxin are usually sufficient for the treatment of one person in Uruguay.

 

Indications: why and when to give a botox injection in Uruguay?

 

Botox injection is particularly suitable for treating marked expression lines. This product is mostly used on the face and neck area. In Uruguay, the main manufacturers of botulinum toxin with Marketing Authorization have the following exclusive indications:


  • glabella lines (vertical frown lines between the eyebrows),

  • horizontal forehead wrinkles (above the eyebrows),

  • crow's feet wrinkles (side wrinkles that appear at the corner of the eyes when smiling).

 

With advances in botox injection, other areas of the face can also be treated, such as:


  • upper lip wrinkles,

  • the platysmal cords of the neck,

  • cheek and chin wrinkles.

 

Much appreciated, the use of botox is possible for 18 to 70 years or more in Uruguay. It must be said that the effectiveness of this treatment is remarkable. In addition, its action is preventive, because by relaxing the muscle, it allows the formation of breaks in the skin to be delayed over time.

 

It is the revolution in aesthetic medicine over the past 20 years with results that are as spectacular as they are effective in rejuvenating the face.

 

How is a botox injection performed in Uruguay?
