How is the procedure going
The whole procedure takes about 15 minutes.
The doctor marks the points where he is going to inject the botulinum toxin with a pencil. At the same time, you frown, make different grimaces on your face, as the doctor determines your working muscles.
Then he shows you the drug, its expiration date, if desired, the Certificate of this drug.
Removes your make-up from your face, if any, wipes your face with an antiseptic.
Apply dry ice with a cotton swab to the preliminary injection site.
The pain from the injection by the fillers is much stronger. Here is my review of lip augmentation here
After the end of the procedure, the doctor applies a soothing cream.

What should not be done after botox bits
After injections in the forehead and other parts of the face (the first injection usually lasts up to six months), you cannot:
- do manual massages, procedures for myostimulation, and microcurrent therapy. That is, it is necessary to exclude the impact on the muscles of the face, which need rest. At the same time, light peels and masks are quite acceptable;
- for 7-14 days after injections, it is necessary to refrain from taking antibiotics, analgesics, as well as the use of ginger, garlic, vitamin E, ginseng, as this, can increase the risk of hematomas;

- to use an infrared laser, since these manipulations normalize muscle tone, that is, the effect of the drug will be completely leveled.
Botox Allergan
Advantages:
- Famous brand.
- Does not mask the face when used in reasonable amounts.
Disadvantages:
- The effect is not more than three months.
- The second time did not smooth out all the wrinkles.
- More expensive than their counterparts.
Dysport
Producer Ipsen Pharma (France).
Dysport is also famous and equally effective in cosmetology!
Advantages:
- The drug smoothes wrinkles.
- The effect in my case lasts about 5-6 months.
- The price is lower than Botox.
Disadvantages:
- Only an experienced professional should be consulted as the method of administering Dysport is much more complicated from Botox and side effects may be more frequent.
Azzalure by Galderma
Manufacturer Beaufour Ipsen International (France).
Azzalure is the aesthetic version of Dysport for the member states of the European Union.
The effect comes faster than Botox and Dysport. The forehead becomes a little stony. We recomend to buy azzalure though its price is more expensive than the others.
