Botox has gained popularity in recent years. It is made from a neurotoxin produced by a bacterium. It is most commonly known to eliminate wrinkles and fine lines, but can do so much more. Below, are four amazing uses for Botox in Southampton that are not as common.
Sweating
Botox can help treat excessive underarm, palm and foot sweating. It affects the nerve endings in these areas and stops the overactive sweat. Discovered by realizing a link in patients who used Botox for the face and reduced sweating, this treatment was approved by the FDA in the early 2000s.
Migraines
Migraines have plagued millions of people. Up until recently, treatments were in medicine form. Patients, while they were getting facial Botox treatments, also claimed to have fewer headaches. This was researched and again approved by the government as an effective migraine treatment. The treatment can last for months.
If you want to use Botox in Southampton or other cities to cure your migraine, there are many doctor offices that can provide you with care.
Crossed Eyes
Botox can cure crossed eyes in a patient. It weakens the eye related muscle that is causing the crossing, and the eyes are relaxed into proper position. Discovered by an ophthalmologist, this was how Botox wrinkle treatment was discovered, and its popularity followed.
Overactive Bladder
Botox also aids in curing overactive bladder. It helps to reduce the intense feeling of having to use the bathroom all the time and the sensitivity of fluid intake on the bladder.
Botox is not a cure that will last a lifetime. The effects generally last for a few months and would have to be applied again. The symptoms and issues will return again if you don’t continue treatment. However, Botox is a great alternative when traditional treatments wear out or do not work.
