Botox cures depression?

Recent study by Dr Michael Lewis of the School of Psychology, Cardiff, Wales, showed that Botox, traditionally a cosmetic treatment, could actually be a depression cure.

“Botox can be used to paralyse the frown muscles up to six months. Frowning is responsible for expressing normally negative emotions such as sadness, fear, anger and distress. A patient who has had Botox Glasgow in this area can’t physically form the expressions necessary to portray these emotions. As a result, they feel more relaxed and look more youthful” explains Dr Kieren Bong, a cosmetic doctor at one of Scotland’s best Botox clinics in Glasgow, Essence Medical Cosmetic Clinic.

Studies also showed that Botox injections in Glasgow can dramatically improve moods, as well as our relationships with others.

“Majority of our patients who had Botox treatments at our Botox clinic in Glasgow told us that they noticed a significant difference in mood. They were noticeably less negative and felt more relaxed” says Dr Bong.
