Reconstruction of Facial Muscles to Look Happy
Fundamentally, Botox injections make use of various forms of botulinum toxin to temporarily paralyze muscle activity.
The most popular application of Botox injection in Maryland is to reduce the appearance of some facial wrinkles. The other popular uses are to address problems such as excessive sweating, overactive bladder, lazy eye, and repetitive neck spasms.
Yet, by far, Botox is best known for delivering “a happy look”.
Interestingly, a psychiatric research study conducted on participants who suffered depression showed that a majority of them got relief after they received Botox injections.
The question, therefore, on the minds of doctors was whether paralyzing the facial muscles is enough to make depressed individuals feel better.
Charles Darwin held the belief that control of facial expressions causes a similar effect on subjective emotions. Some may debate this argument. And we may never get to the root of the answer.
But the fact is that Botox injections, after they remove wrinkles, seem to alter the brain and the mind and people truly “feel happy”.
“After Botox removed my wrinkles, I have started reengaging with people,” says a 50-year-old woman who recently had a series of Botox Injections in Maryland.
The scenario is certainly intriguing. It is raising fascinating questions of whether, by administering Botox injections to large numbers of people, doctors are concurrently treating depression as well.
It must be remembered that Botox is a prescription drug. It must be administered by a physician, or a certified physician assistant, or aesthetician.
As far as cost is concerned, Botox injections in Maryland depend on the zone treated. In effect it means that frown lines can be one zone and crow’s feet another. Some doctors may charge based on number of units of Botox injected.
