Who Invented Botox? The Deadly Origins of this Commonly Used Drug.

                              

Botox, the wonder drug in the skincare and beauty industry, has an interesting origin story. So, to understand where it all began, let’s start at the beginning.

The Scientist Behind The Discovery Of Botox

The scientist who is said to be the father of botox was not a cosmetic surgeon. Dr. Alan B. Scott was an eye surgeon (an ophthalmologist). Little did he know that he would come across the magic drug that has helped men and women embrace their aging process.

Dr. Alan Scott unfortunately passed away on 16th December, 2021, due to ill health and old age, but in his 89 years of  life, he did a lot for the medical and cosmetic worlds. Know more About: Who Invented Botox? The Deadly Origins of this Commonly Used Drug.

Pros and Cons of Preventative Botox

 We all know that it’s not just the outside that matters, but also the inside. Looks do matter, but they are not the only thing that matter. Your looks can though give people a framework of how they perceive you, how you feel about yourself, and your levels of self esteem.

But when really young people start obsessing over their non-existing wrinkles and fine lines, which are honestly not even that visible to people on a daily basis, and get obsessed to such an extent that they feel the need to get Botox shots “just in case”, well that’s where we need to step back, analyze, and recognize our relationship with our physical appearance.

Improving the Appearance of Your Skin: The Benefits of Hyperpigmentation Treatments

 

Before We Get Into This, What Is Hyperpigmentation?

Melanin is a pigment in our skin which determines our skin tone. In the case of hyperpigmentation, this accumulation of melanin is not even, and some areas have more melanin than others, which results in a darker appearance or dark patches on certain areas of the skin. Occurrence of hyperpigmentation is in no way dictated by the tone of your skin – we are all equally prone to hyperpigmentation.

While accumulation of melanin seems to be the most common cause of hyperpigmentation, there are multiple other causes too – but don’t worry, there are multiple ways to cure this as well. Know more About: Improving the Appearance of Your Skin: The Benefits of Hyperpigmentation Treatments

What's The Deal With Your Lips Thinning Over Time?

Full and voluptuous lips are all the craze these days, and why shouldn’t they be? Your lips convey so much – showing your approval or disdain – lips can say it all!

Correlation Between Thin Lips And Aging

Before we get into the correlation between thin lips and ageing, let’s first break down our understanding of collagen. What is it, and how does it affect us? Essentially, collagen is a protein that is the building block of bones, skin, muscles and tissues. Our body is constantly producing collagen, but as we grow older, the amount of collagen produced by our body keeps decreasing. So in our youth, our body is at its peak of collagen production. When we start to hit our 30s, our collagen levels begin to dwindle. Every year after the age of 30, it is said that our collagen production falls by 2%. So you can only imagine the depletion in collagen when we hit our 50s and 60s. Know More About: What's The Deal With Your Lips Thinning Over Time?
