In this thread im going through everything you need to know before doing your first botox session.
Table of contents:
Introduction
how does botox work
Things you need
How to reconsitute and use botox.
my journey with botox.
my before and after.
Introduction:
Before hopping on Botox, you need to know where to get it, how much to use, and how to use it. Don’t watch one TikTok video or read a single thread and expect it to fix your thin lips and big nose. Done correctly with the right knowledge and technique, Botox can actually improve both areas. this is the last thread you need before knowing how to use it right so we are going to dive deeper into it. (Dont mind the bad introduction i just didn't know what to add here)
How does botox work?
Botox stand for ''botulinum toxin''. It works by blocking nerve signals to the targeted muscles, which stops them from contracting. This temporarily relaxes the muscle. (Im not going to make it all hard here by explaining every single thing about botox because i know most of yall dont give a shit and only want the more important parts about this thread).
Things you need:
Sterile place/room
Botox (botulinum toxin type A)
Saline 0.9% solution
Syringes (29-31G recommended)
Alcohol wipes

How to reconsitute and use botox.
For 100iu of botox use 1ml saline
For 200iu 2ml saline
To reconsitute your botox take 1ml on saline and inject it into the botox (wipe them with alcohol pads to keep things sterile)

To use botox you need to know where to injet depends on what muscle and results you're going for.
as you can see these are the layer of human skin
