Is it obvious after the first face-lift injection?

For many people who want to make their faces smaller but have tried many methods without success, face-slimming injections may be a good choice. Because if it is difficult to slim down your face, it means that your face is enlarged due to the hypertrophy of the masseter muscle, and face-slimming injections are beauty products that can shrink the masseter muscle, and the effect time is relatively short. So, is the effect of face-slimming injection obvious the first time? Let me introduce you to the relevant knowledge below!

1. Introduction to face slimming injection

The face-slimming injection is a botulinum toxin type A injection, which primarily acts on muscle tissue. Because it is often used to solve masseter muscle hypertrophy, it is called the face-slimming injection. The professional name of the face-slimming injection is botulinum toxin, which is a biological product that can be mass-produced through genetic engineering methods. Because of its nerve blocking effect, it is very commonly used in neurology, ophthalmology, plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery.

2. Is the effect of face-lift injection obvious?

After injecting botulinum toxin to slim the face, the face will generally start to become thinner after a week, and the best effect will be achieved in about a month. But the specific situation varies from person to person. It should be noted that after getting a face-slimming injection, do not squeeze, massage, or apply hot compresses to the injection site. Generally, you should go to the hospital for a follow-up visit 2 weeks after the injection to let the doctor know the effect of your injection.

Generally speaking, after 3 to 6 months, the effect of face slimming will gradually disappear. If you still want to see the original effect, you must continue to inject. Many people who love beauty are worried that they will develop a dependence on face-slimming injections. In fact, this worry is unnecessary. For ordinary people, only two injections a year are needed, and if proper maintenance is taken afterwards, no injections will be needed again.

3. What should you pay attention to after getting a face-lift injection?

1. You should also be aware that the skin at the injection site will experience slight redness and swelling, which usually disappears after a few hours. A few people will have slight bruising at the injection site, but it will disappear quickly.

Within 3 to 6 hours, you should not wash your face, put on makeup, be curious or touch the injection site, or exercise.

4. A professional doctor will ask you to come back for a check-up in a week.

5. Do not massage the area after injection to prevent the vaccine toxin from spreading.

6. Do not massage, hot compress or rub the face within one month after the injection.

7. Avoid eating hard-shelled foods after the injection; do not eat spicy food, seafood, tobacco or alcohol within one week.

8. In the early stage, there may be weakness and pain in chewing.

9. Some people have a one-sided chewing habit, so after the face-slimming injection, there may still be a slight asymmetry on both sides due to habit.

10. A small number of people may be insensitive to the drug and thus the effect may not be obvious, so a follow-up visit should be conducted after 2 weeks.
