Dr Singh who runs his botox clinic in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, in his latest blog talks about botox and its longevity.

Botox comes in a powder form and must always be refrigerated. So normally it will be delivered via a cool box. The botox should then be immediately removed and kept in the fridge. If it is out of the fridge for more than an hour, then the botox activity is shortened considerably.

It is then mixed with saline to produce a liquid and this is the botox that is injected. Same again, once the botox is mixed with saline, it will have a short half life. Typically it will lose its activity after 4 hours. Therefore if there is any botox left after a few hours rom mixing with the saline, it should be discarded as there result will not be ideal.

Botox can work very well, but as you can see, certain precautions need to be taken into account when storing the botox and when mixing the botox.

Regular monitoring of the fridge temperature is critical, so allowing the botox to be stored in ideal conditions and thus allowing predictable results with the botox treatments.

Dr Singh who runs his botox clinic in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, in his latest blog shares his thoughts on what training is involved before you can administer botox injections.

Currently only medically qualified professionals can give botox treatments, such as dentists, doctors and medical nurses.

Then hey would need to undertake an approved botox course for insurance purposes. These botox courses are normally are a 1 day course. I personally feel this is not enough training for someone hoping to provide botox treatments. I would recommend a more advanced botox course such as a 2 day residential which includes dissection to see where the muscles are.

There are numerous conferences and exhibitions where a botox practitioner can continue learning and perfecting their botox technique.

One of the best botox training is provided by the manufactures of botox. They will help, guide and advice you so you can gain confidence in the botox procedures. As with everything, it is constant and never ending improvement, so allowing your botox patients to gain the best results in the safest way possible.

Dr Singh who runs his botox clinic in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, in his latest blog shares his thoughts on botox for men. The majority of my botox patients are female, I would say at least 95% are females. Therefore it is quite uncommon to get a male ask for botox. In my experience the male botox patient will normally fall into one of three groups. The first group are husbands that have been refereed by their wife who has experienced the botox treatment. The wife will either suggest or strongly push the male into considering having botox. The second group are males that have been impressed with the results of botox on their female friends. This normally occurs in the workplace where the female botox patients returns looking more refreshed and youthful. The third group is the gay male. They are very concerned with their image and looks and will undertake botox to retain their freshness. For more information about botox hertfordshire, please call us on 01438 300111.

 

Dr Singh who runs his botox clinic in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, in his latest blog talks about the stories my female botox patients tell their partners when visiting me for their botox injections.

 

The majority of my female botox patients do not tell their husbands or partners that they have regular botox treatments. And in certain cases they will fabricate the reason why they visit me or if they swell or bruise how this happened.

 

The commonest reason they say is that they are visiting their dentist instead of visiting for their botox jabs. In theory, they are not lying, since I am a dentist.

 

Immediately after the treatment, there is a slight swelling and redness from the botox injections and this normally lasts a maximum of 20 minutes. On one occasion, my botox patient was bought in by her husband, who did not know she was having botox. She then explained to him, post botox treatment, that I did a course of acupuncture on her face and this had caused the slight swelling and redness!

 

Then what happens if they have a slight swelling or bruising after the botox treatment.

 

My patients will make up reasons along the lines of walking into a door, hitting their head with a kitchen cupboard, etc.

 

The only downside to the above excuses is if they have a bruise on both sides of the face from the botox treatment, this is a much harder thing to explain away.

 

The best excuse I heard was a botox patient had a slight bruise around her eye. When waking up, the husband notice this and asked her what had happened. She told him that he had elbowed her at night time whilst asleep and this had caused the bruise. At the end of the day, the husband retuned from work with a box of chocolates and some flowers, since he felt so guilty about the bruising. Even after this, the botox patient, still did not give the game away that the bruise was caused by a botox injection!
