BTA in the field of aesthetic

Many people possess misconceptions and misperceptions towards the usage of BTA in the field of aesthetic. The most common myths are as follows:

Myth 1: BTA freezes facial expression

BTA would not cause frozen looks if it is given by a trained and experienced professional. Instead, it helps develop soft, elegant and natural looks. Unwanted negative results are caused by overdose, or having BTA mistakenly injected into non-targeted muscles by a disqualified personnel, or by layman terms, “fake doctors”.

BTA is in fact very safe and is approved by the Food and Drug Administration of the United States for cosmetic use to reduce wrinkles. The manufacturing process of BTA is very

Myth 3: You will get “addicted” once you start receiving BTA injection

BTA does not result in dependence and ‘addiction”. You can opt to discontinue the injection anytime you want, without worrying about the deterioration of wrinkle conditions. Wrinkles that reappear when the effect of BTA wears off look exactly like what they were before treatment.

BTA could be given to young ladies who are in their 30’s, or even 20’s, that wish to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and prevent deeper wrinkles from settling in as they grow older. Nowadays, gentlemen also receive BTA therapy as people are becoming more beauty conscious. Everyone, regardless of age and gender, is keen to maintain youthful look.
