Smaller doses of botulinum toxin are used in baby botulinum toxin treatments, preserving the natural expressive range of your facial muscles. Mini-dosing is popular among young adults who want to avoid wrinkles in the future, but it it is also a wonderful alternative for anyone who is new to the therapy or is concerned about appearing overdone.
Baby botulinum toxin is the best technique to keep a well-rested, youthful appearance without seeming frozen or overdone, but there are some drawbacks; as your plastic surgeon uses fewer units, each treatment is quite inexpensive, but the lifespan of the baby botulinum toxin is often less because you are receiving less than the necessary dose for a specific location. Therefore, treatments should be done every one to two months to maintain your outcomes.
With more moderate to severe wrinkles, this method may be less effective. The mini-dose may not be efficient enough for the muscle if the creases are apparent, especially if it is a stronger muscle. In conclusion, baby botulinum toxin is appropriate for patients who are younger or who do not have serious lines or wrinkles.
