Even after National Botox Day passes, you can still enjoy a younger appearance through regular Botox Cosmetic treatments with the help of Charlotte Plastic Surgery.

When Is National Botox Day?

National Botox Day occurs each year in November. The first celebrated day was November 16, 2019, and the event repeats annually.

What Is National Botox Day?

Of course, there is not a federally recognized National Botox Day. However, the creator of Botox Cosmetic, Allergan, decided to use data collected from studying when people chose to get this procedure to determine the best date to offer discounts on treatments. Priceonomics examined information about doctor appointments during the holidays booked through Zocdoc. The publication discovered that primary care visits either dropped or remained steady. However, visits to skin treatment facilities and plastic surgeons for Botox treatments increased.

In fact, National Botox Day coincides with the rise in Botox treatment appointments during the week of Thanksgiving. Therefore, Allergan chose November 16th to promote Botox treatment and offer discounts and deals through Alle.

Why Is National Botox Day in November?

The week of Thanksgiving marks the beginning of the season of attending office parties, family dinners, and other holiday gatherings. Some of these events will bring people together who haven’t seen each other since the previous year. Therefore, the pressure to look your best is a real challenge, especially if you have seen your appearance changing over the years from aging or stress.

Aside from get-togethers with friends, family, and coworkers, you may have other reasons to look better during the holidays. Many families take photos for their Christmas cards that recipients keep for years. Unfortunately, modern high-definition cameras can pick up the slightest flaws. Getting Botox to reduce the appearance of lines or wrinkles can help you look your best for photos and parties.

Consequently, by getting Botox Cosmetic the week of Thanksgiving, you can tighten your face’s appearance in time to look your best through the rest of the year.

What If You Miss National Botox Day?

If you miss getting Botox Cosmetic treatment on November 20, you still have time to get this treatment to look good for the other winter holidays. For the best results, schedule your consultation at least two weeks before you want to show off your fresher, younger appearance. You will need to give the injections a week or two to have the best results. Your results may vary, but they should last for up to six months, taking you through the winter and spring holidays.

What Is Botox Cosmetic?

Botox Cosmetic is a trademarked brand name for botulinum toxin A. This compound has the effect of blocking nerve signals, which can make it beneficial for relaxing muscles in the face, keeping lines and wrinkles at bay. By expertly injecting Botox into the skin, a doctor can target areas of creases or lines and calm the muscles that create them.

Who Should Have Botox Injections?

Many people with concerning lines and creases on their face can benefit from Botox Cosmetic. This procedure is most effective at helping those who have issues around the following parts of the face:

• Chin dimples
• Lines between the nose and upper lip
• Crow’s feet
• Frown lines
• Forehead creases
• Lines surrounding the mouth

During a consultation with a Botox Cosmetic provider, you will discuss whether you can get good results from Botox for the improvements in your appearance that you want.

How Long Do the Results Last?

Though Botox injections only take a few minutes to administer, you can see results for four to six months, on average. The location of the injections and the severity of the problem treated, as well as your skin and muscles’ elasticity, will determine how long you will maintain your results.

Who Administers Botox Injections?

Though you can find Botox injections at spas and other informal settings, you should go to a professional plastic surgery center where you can have a medically trained doctor administer the treatment. Unless an expert places the needle into predetermined spots on your face, you may not get the results you want. In fact, going to a non-medical facility could be dangerous for you.

Why Can’t I Just Go to Spa for Botox?

Going to a spa or other facility that does not have licensed physicians administering Botox could cause severe side effects. Commonly reported problems seen in those who get Botox in informal settings or inexperienced administrators are too much saline in the injection and incorrect needle placement.

Our doctors at Charlotte Plastic Surgery will evaluate your skin and determine the exact proportions of saline and Botox to use to get the best results. They also have extensive experience in injecting this compound into precise locations on the face. Therefore, if you want to get Botox Cosmetic and lower your chances of side effects while increasing your chances of great results, visit our medical professionals at Charlotte Plastic Surgery.

Are There Any Side Effects to Having Botox?

All cosmetic procedures come with side effects. However, for Botox Cosmetic, the side effects tend to be mild and subside quickly. Some people may experience muscle aches, fever, or flu-like symptoms. You can usually treat these at home with rest.

However, some very rare side effects that require medical intervention include drooping of the mouth, eye, or eyelid. Contact the doctor who gave you the Botox for what to do about these more serious side effects.
