Botox in Tehran, Iran

 What exactly is Botox?
 

Botox is the name of a pharmaceutical brand. This product contains a toxin of a bacterium called Clostridium botulinum. This toxin has therapeutic and aesthetic uses, including temporary paralysis of a muscle. Among the therapeutic uses of Botox are the prevention of migraine headaches and excessive sweating.

The cosmetic application of Botox includes reducing the dynamic lines and wrinkles of the face. Dynamic wrinkles include wrinkles caused by muscle contraction (such as forehead wrinkles, frown lines, and crow's feet). In contrast to dynamic wrinkles, static wrinkles (such as nasolabial folds or laugh lines) have nothing to do with muscle contraction and, of course, Clostridium botulinum toxin will not affect them.
 

Botox was the first brand to receive US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for frown line treatment. Then other brands such as Dysport and Xeomin succeeded in receiving this approval.
The Botox brand is not found in Iran, but the neurotoxin Clostridium botulinum is popularly known as Botox. So in Iran, the word Botox refers to other similar brands. Among the well-known brands similar to the Botox brand that is offered in the Iranian market, we can name the following:

- Dysport, made in the United Kingdom
- Xeomin, made in Germany
- Neuronox, made in Korea
- Masport, made in Iran
- Dyston, made in Iran
 

The brands mentioned above are all approved by the Food and Drug Administration of Iran, and of course there may be other miscellaneous brands in the consumer market that have not yet received the above approval, and therefore the effectiveness and the side effects of them not known.

Like all products and medications that enter the body, Botox and other similar brands have the potential to cause side effects, the most common of which include:
 

- Local swelling for several hours
- Local redness for up to several hours
- Local bruising for up to a week
- Mild local pain during injection
- Headache for one to two weeks
- Drooping eyelids for up to a few weeks
- Double vision for several weeks
 

All of the above complications are temporary and the possibility of their occurrence will be minimized by choosing a reputable clinic and an experienced doctor, as well as following the care tips after the injection.
Before receiving Botox or other similar brands, first consult your cosmetologist to make sure this method is right for you. If you have any other illnesses or health conditions, tell your doctor and let him or her know the list of all your medications.

Some people inadvertently get chin wrinkles while talking or even resting. This condition is often not noticed by the patient and the doctor warns him about this issue. Chin creases are also seen following the implantation of a chin prosthesis or in people with small chins. Atrophy of subcutaneous adipose tissue and dermis covering muscles may be involved in the formation of a wrinkled chin. This is also called orange peel chin because of the dimples on the chin.

The dermatologist first examines and observes the anatomy of the face and injects Botox into the lower inner part of the chin between the chin and the lower edge of the mandibular bone. This procedure is not painful and does not require special care after the injection unless the injected part is not massaged for 24 hours. See your dermatologist immediately if any abnormal symptoms occur.

 

Side effects of Botox injection in the chin

Injections above the chin crease affect the round muscle of the mouth (Orbicularis oris) and may lead to sagging lower lip or even watery mouth.

Too little injection may cause abnormal muscle contraction and therefore need to be re-dosed to correct the disorder.
