Is facial slimming harmful to the body?

The face is the part that leaves a deep impression on people. Many women hope to have a beautiful face, but because everyone's appearance is different, many people hope that their face can become a little smaller. A small face is indeed good-looking, but having a small face is not so easy. Some people still find that their faces are particularly big after losing weight. Some people choose to get face-slimming injections. Will face-slimming injections cause side effects?

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. Studies have shown that serious problems may sometimes occur during face-slimming injections due to difficulty in controlling muscle contraction. Even if the doctor's skills are not up to par when performing the injection, too much injection is given, or the face-slimming injection does not meet the prescribed standards, it can cause harm.

The main manifestations are as follows:

First, the more common side effect is that the face becomes stiff, the smile becomes unnatural, etc.

Second, if too many facial slimming injections are given, it may cause symptoms of difficulty swallowing.

Third, there is asymmetry between the two sides of the face or muscle weakness at the injection site.

Fourth, some people may experience local swelling and fever after receiving a face-slimming injection.

Fifth, the main side effects include excessive weakness of the masseter muscle and corresponding manifestations caused by the spread of the face-slimming injection to the adjacent muscle tissue.

Sixth, some face-slimming patients were found to experience fever, discomfort, fatigue, etc. after receiving botulinum toxin injections.

The harm of face-slimming injections is still very great. Face-slimming injections essentially rely on drug injections to achieve the effect of face-slimming. All medicines are toxic, and some drugs will remain on the face after the injection.
