But, not to worry: with these tips, you can get the most out of your botox and stay wrinkle- or symptom-free for longer.<\/h3>\n                                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                                <div class=\"detail-block content-block\">\n                                                                                    <h2>1. Regular and consistent prodding<\/h2>\n<p>The best way to prolong the effects of your Botox treatment is to have it done regularly initially. By consistently relaxing the muscles, they will become weaker over time. As a result, the results of the Botox last longer and you will not need to repeat the treatment as often in the long run. The advice is to start with every 3 to 4 months. We see many clients in our clinic who, over time, only schedule a botox treatment every 6 months.<\/p>\n                                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                                <div class=\"detail-block content-block\">\n                                                                                    <h2>2. Keeps the muscles moving<\/h2>\n<p>An experienced artisan will tell you to move the muscles pricked with botox immediately after treatment. Research shows that, by moving the muscles, the botox can distribute itself well evenly and helps the botox last longer.<\/p>\n                                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                                <div class=\"detail-block content-block\">\n                                                                                    <h2>3. Do not rub<\/h2>\n<p>After your botox treatment, keep your hands out of your face. And especially from the area treated with botox. While it is good to keep moving your muscle after treatment, it is not advisable to massage, rub or push the area. This can actually cause the botox to spread to other areas of the face. Also, do not use products such as toners, face masks or harsh scrubs for the first 24-48 hours. Furthermore, be careful when cleaning your face and with serums or creams.<\/p>\n                                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                                <div class=\"detail-block content-block\">\n                                                                                    <h2>4. Limit sun exposure<\/h2>\n<p>This tip does not only apply to your botox treatment; always limit sun exposure and always use good sun protection. Although direct UV radiation does not seem to have any effect on the botox treatment itself, sun exposure does increase skin damage and wrinkles. The more wrinkles, the more and more often you will have to repeat your botox treatment to achieve the same effects.<\/p>\n                                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                                <div class=\"detail-block content-block\">\n                                                                                    <h2>5. Choose the right specialist<\/h2>\n<p>Botox is a relatively safe and perhaps even simple treatment. Yet it can do more harm than good in the hands of a non-experienced specialist. There are many clinics and healthcare professionals offering botox treatments these days. But not all providers are experienced or qualified to perform this treatment. Therefore, read up carefully and make sure you are always helped by an experienced, certified cosmetic doctor. They will know exactly how to inject the Botox in the right dosage and in the right place accurately to achieve maximum effect.<\/p>\n                                                                            <\/div>\n                                                                                                                                <div class=\"detail-block content-block\">\n                                                                                    <h2>Are you considering a botox treatment?<\/h2>\n<p>Or are you curious which treatment is best for you?
