Eyelash lamination and botox

New “eyelash botox”: what is it?

Eyelash Botox has nothing to do with injection correction of wrinkles and the introduction of drugs based on botulinum toxin. Marketers called the procedure this way to place consumers' special emphasis on the new service. However, there is still something similar; the result from eyelash Botox is as immediate as after beauty injections with botulinum toxin. The effect is expressed:

• in increasing the volume of eyelash hair;
• formation of a natural beautiful curve;
• improving nutrition from the inside at the cellular level;
• increasing the elasticity of hair structures.

Botox for eyelashes is a special treatment for restoring hair in the eyelash row from the inside with the formation of a natural curve. After treatment with a special serum, eyelashes acquire rich color without dyeing, shine, curl and length. After the salon procedure, the need for daily application of decorative mascara and regular extensions disappears.

Where and for how much is it sold?

At the moment, eyelash Botox is gaining popularity all over the world. You can buy the composition not only in large cities of our country, but also in the most remote, small settlements.

Moscow and St. Petersburg are the first big cities in which Lash Botox appeared, you can buy it:

• 
  in specialized stores;

• in beauty salons that sell cosmetic and professional products;
• order in the online store with free delivery.

It is worth noting that not only retail, but also wholesale trade of the drug is widely developed, since warehouses with Lash Botox brand products have already been organized in these cities.

The cost depends on the batch of products. On average, a complete set for 100 procedures costs around 5,000 rubles. If you need to buy the drug for your own use, you can choose ampoules with a smaller number of milliliters from 400 to 900 rubles.

How does Botox work on eyelashes?

Botox is an oily substance, a serum for hair restoration. The stunning instant result is due to the high concentrations of collagen, hyaluronate and keratin. The care has the following therapeutic and aesthetic effects:

• improvement of hair structure at the cellular level;
• growth stimulation, natural nutrition of the eyelash bulb;
• resistance to the harmful effects of external factors;
• imparting special elasticity, strength, flexibility.

The content of vitamins and natural oils provides complete nutrition, prevents hair aging, and compensates for lack of moisture. All components in combination interact with each other, creating an impeccable appearance and revealing the look.

Eyelash Botox: indications for use

Considering not only the aesthetic, but also the healing purpose of the procedure, Botox for eyelashes is suitable for women with the following problems:

• lack of natural curve even for those with long and thick eyelashes;
• short and indistinct hairs;
• straight short eyelashes rushing to the lower eyelid;
• chaotic direction of hair growth;
• loss or weakening due to the influence of decorative mascara, extensions.

Manipulation is also performed if you are dissatisfied with the appearance of your own eyelashes. When performing the manipulation systematically, you can change the natural bend and structure along the entire length.

What effect should you expect from the procedures?

As a result of lamination with Botox eyelashes:

• look thicker and denser due to the laminating coating;
• seem thicker - again, due to the added volume;
• become visually longer, since the procedure is often combined with coloring, and the darkened ends add length to the hairs;
• acquire a sharp bend, hold the given shape well, but do not lose the feeling of naturalness;
• they bulge less in different directions and are easier to care for;
• less breakage and fall out;
• grow faster;
• make it possible to do without makeup. Many women who have tried the double procedure on themselves believe that the eyelashes look great even without a layer of mascara, so in light daytime makeup you can simply refuse it.

The fly in the ointment: sometimes the lamination product makes the eyelashes so smooth that mascara doesn’t fit well on them and applying eye makeup for evening makeup becomes a real problem.

Preparations for eyelash botox

Botox for eyelashes for special care is produced in ampoules of 10 ml “Lash Botox eyelashes boost-up”. The package includes 3 needles, a reusable syringe, sometimes curlers and special rollers for curling.

Botox compositions and instructions for them

The composition for Botox in the ciliary zone of the eyes is the same. The procedure is performed using the following compounds and preparations:

• ampoules with serum for application;
• degreaser for eyelashes;
• adhesive composition;
• keratin conditioner and others.

The instructions for the procedure describe the tactics of preparing and correctly applying the serum for the procedure. In essence, Botox is a procedure for lamination of hair in the eyelash row with a difference in the composition of the active substance.

How is Botox performed in a salon setting and how much does it cost?

As a rule, the procedure is performed by a master cosmetologist in the salon :

1. First, he degreases the eyelashes.
2. Applies special Botox compounds.
3. Then he lets them dry.
4. Covers eyelashes with a coloring emulsion.
5. Then it “seals” the result with a lamination procedure (read about what lamination plus eyelash Botox is here, and from this article you will learn how these procedures differ and which one is better).

Attention! Sometimes they do it in the reverse order, it all depends on the master and the approach. But there is no fundamental difference in the order.

The cost of the service may depend on:

• 
  material quality;

• experience and regalia of the master;
• additional services;
• salon's eminence and many other factors.

On average, in Moscow, the cost of a procedure for a master starts from 5 thousand rubles; it happens that beginners get their hands on free procedures. In St. Petersburg the price is approximately the same as in Moscow. There are often promotions or craftsmen take clients to their homes. Such trips will cost 5-6 thousand rubles for a complex procedure.

How is eyelash botox done?

Today, the manipulation of special eyelash treatment is a routine procedure; the technique is simple. Features of the work depend on the tasks being solved and the characteristics of the eyelash row.

Stages of the procedure

The algorithm for performing the procedure corresponds to the following sequential stages:

1. Makeup removal and antiseptic treatment of eyelids, skin in the eye area, thorough combing of hairs.
2. Formation of bends. The natural bend is formed using silicone rollers. Before applying the roller, the hair composition is treated with an adhesive substance.
3. Applying emollient.
4. Eyelash tinting if necessary.
5. Application of Botox serum, which consolidates all previous stages of the procedure.
6. Removing the adhesive and applying a strengthening compound.

Before starting the procedure, it is important to carefully comb the hairs in the eyelash row to comb out all the falling hairs.

Procedure time

The total duration of the procedure is 60 minutes, without staining the time is reduced to 45 minutes. The procedure is performed half-sitting or lying on the couch.

Procedure technology

Important conditions for the technique are compliance with safety rules during the procedure, disinfection, and maintaining the sterility of the affected area and instruments.

Stages of carrying out in the salon

Preliminary preparation stage:

1. If the procedure is done in a salon, the client will be asked to lie on a special comfortable sofa or chair, but in a horizontal position.
2. Then hydrogel-based plasters or patches are applied under the eyes, and only then special curlers are applied to curl the eyelashes.

After this preliminary stage, the main stage begins:

1. Degreasing eyelashes . Eyelash cleansing is carried out with a special solution that removes excess dirt, cleanses the eyelashes, making them clean and ready to absorb beneficial substances. This stage lasts only a couple of minutes.
2. A composition that penetrates the structure . The application of a “revealing” composition includes a chemical substance and opens their scales. The rod becomes sensitive and the eyelashes straighten, attaching to parts of the hydrogel patches. At this stage, a kind of “compress” is applied - the eyes are covered with a special film, and a heated towel or warm cotton pads are placed on top of it. The patient will have to spend about 10 minutes in this position.
3. Painting . After removing the keratin, it’s time to apply coloring pigment to the eyelashes. This stage must be maintained for up to 10 minutes.
4. Botox . The final stage, which is produced using a special composition containing a number of useful substances. Use a cotton swab to remove excess paint and other elements. Then a gel is applied to the eyelashes, which helps fix the result and protects the hairs.

Eyelashes after Botox

The popularity of the procedure for improving the appearance of the hair structure of the eyelids is deserved due to the following effects:

• Naturalness and natural beauty. After Botox, eyelashes do not look artificial, like after volumetric extensions. At the same time, there is a therapeutic and restorative effect.
• Increase in density. After manipulation, the eyelash row becomes more voluminous and the thickness of the eyelashes increases. The active components in the composition nourish the bulbs and improve their appearance from the inside.
• Open and attractive look. Giving a natural bend allows you to open your eyes, make them expressive and attractive.
• Adding firmness and elasticity. Eyelashes become resistant to environmental factors and external influences.
• Botox for eyelashes provides nutrition to the bulbous structure, so nutrition comes from the inside. Thanks to internal restoration, the healing effect lasts for a long time.

Care is carried out in several directions: deep saturation with nutrients, strengthening, giving an attractive appearance and natural bend.

How to care after

To maintain the effect for a long time, doctors and cosmetologists recommend:

1. Be sure to remove makeup in the evening.
2. You need to remove makeup correctly - from the inner corner of the eye to the outer corner. Don't rub your eyes too hard.
3. It is better to choose makeup remover products without alcohol and alkalis - these components have a bad effect on the structure of the hair shaft.
4. You can strengthen your eyelashes with burdock or castor oil.
5. There is no direct contraindication to applying mascara after Botox. However, in some cases, such a need disappears by itself - the eyelashes acquire a very attractive appearance even without tinting agents.

After a visit to the salon, you can lead a normal lifestyle without restrictions - swim in the pool, wash, sunbathe.

How often can the procedure be done?

The frequency of visiting a lash specialist depends on the initial condition of the eyelid hair. In case of severe hair damage, a course of 5-10 procedures is required. For minor damage, 2-3 correction sessions are sufficient. The procedure is suitable even for women with ideal natural hair structure. The manipulation supports nutrition, moisturizes the bulbs, heals and strengthens the eyelashes from the inside.

The break between courses of treatment with a special serum is 2-4 months. The next procedure is carried out several months after the previous one.

Contraindications to the procedure

Despite the non-invasiveness of the correction technique, Botox has a number of contraindications:

• previous ophthalmological surgeries;
• absence of inflammatory eye diseases;
• absence of non-inflammatory eye pathologies.

The procedure is not performed for chronic conjunctivitis, aggravated history of allergies, a sharp decrease in vision, diplopia, or glaucoma. The remaining contraindications are relative; the procedure is performed after consultation with a doctor.

Indications and contraindications

Who should have the procedure? Experts advise girls who have the following problems to resort to it:

• Eyelashes are sparse;

• The hairs are quite short.

By using Botox you will get the following effect:

• The thickness of eyelashes will increase. The before and after photos clearly demonstrate this. This will happen due to the fact that the hairs will become thicker;

If there are no contraindications, you can safely perform the procedure.

Eyelash care after the procedure

No special care is required, as the serum provides complete nutrition, strengthening and restoration of the hair structure from the inside. Among the main recommendations are:

• removing makeup only with milk or oil composition;
• Do not rub your eyes, just wipe with a cotton pad soaked in a cleanser;
• Do not use skin care cosmetics with an alkaline component to maintain long-lasting results.

When applying decorative mascara, it is recommended to remove it before going to bed; your eyes should rest. The procedure does not interfere with the instillation of ophthalmic drugs into the eyes.

Vitamins to strengthen eyelashes

The care products are similar in composition. Almost all products contain exclusively herbal ingredients, sometimes supplemented with synthetic substances. The results are mostly positive.

Advantages and disadvantages of Botox for eyelashes

The advantage of caring for eyelashes with a special Botox serum is its special composition. The drug includes the following components:

• purified hydrolyzed keratin;
• collagen adapted;
• vitamin E;
• argan oil;
• vitamin B5;
• hyaluronic acid.

Each component enhances the effect of the other, the composition allows you to increase the life cycle of the hair follicle, the structure of the hairs of the upper and lower eyelids from the inside. After just one procedure, hairs instantly improve, strengthen, and are restored at the cellular level.

In itself, applying the drug to improve the appearance of eyelashes does not negatively affect the condition of the hairs or health. The only drawback of the method is the fragility of the result, the need for a course of use to achieve maximum aesthetic results and eyelash care.

Other disadvantages include the high cost of the procedure, especially if a course of treatment with medicinal serum is required, correction when new eyelashes grow.

How long will the effect last?

Eyelash Botox lasts on the hairs for 1.5-2 months , after which the procedure can be repeated. How to determine when correction is needed? Usually it is carried out as soon as all the eyelashes are renewed, that is, there is no drug left on them.

For a lasting effect, it is necessary to carry out a course of application, several procedures every 2 months, this is the only way to restore the keratin layer. Then you can take a break, using folk remedies for eyelash care.

What is the difference between eyelash lamination and a Botox session?

What is Botox for eyelashes, and how does it differ from lamination? Despite the similarities in some aspects of both procedures, the main difference lies in the composition of the active drugs. Lamination preparations contain silicone, which seals the scaly structure of the hair from the inside, smoothes it, and gives a natural shine. Botox not only creates aesthetic appeal and a natural appearance, but also saturates it with nutrients and gives a natural curve.

Thus, lamination is a temporary aesthetic procedure aimed at improving the appearance of the hair structures. Botox provides long-term results, nutrition, and improved appearance from the inside.

Disadvantages of the technique

There are no obvious negative aspects to Botox for eyelashes, but there are nuances that need to be taken into account to avoid discomfort.

1. It is advisable to correct eyelashes, since during the three months that Botox lasts, natural renewal of hairs occurs. New and old eyelashes will differ in shape and curve, so they may cause discomfort.
2. Even hypoallergenic serum made from natural ingredients can cause individual intolerance. The cases are extremely rare, but it doesn't hurt to do a test on your skin.

Conventionally, contraindications can be called a disadvantage, which are:

1. The procedure should not be performed on girls with sensitive and often watery eyes.
2. During the recovery period after eye surgery, any cosmetic procedures are prohibited.
3. If the mucous membrane of the eyes is inflamed, it is also better to postpone the session.

From all of the above, we can conclude that the procedure not only has a visual effect, but also heals the eyelashes, and this is very reminiscent of the effect of lamination. Are there any differences?

Harm from simultaneous Botox and eyelash lamination

The question of the dangers of combined use of Botox and lamination procedures cannot be considered as a real threat to the health or condition of eyelashes. Many specialists combine procedures with each other in compliance with certain rules. Lamination only enhances the aesthetic effect.

After lamination, extensions are not carried out, since the adhesive composition will not stick to the glossy shell. After Botox, extensions are possible, since the hairs will be perfectly attached to their strengthened hairs.

Summarizing the question of the joint implementation of lamination and Botox, it should be noted that the procedures are absolutely harmless, but inappropriate. Botox completely solves the problem of not only the health of the hair follicles, but also the appearance of the eyelashes of the upper or lower eyelid.

Reviews

MARINA, 24 YEARS OLD, MOSCOW:

“I can’t say that I have naturally bad eyelashes.
But, like any other girl, I always want to look better and more beautiful. I generally don’t like to experiment with my appearance and I simply don’t sign up for any dubious procedures. But when I found out what Botox and lamination are, I really caught fire. I have already done eyebrow tattooing, or, as it is now beautifully called, microblading, and I have already appreciated the joy of permanent makeup.

Having sparse eyebrows by nature, with not the best shape, I was forced to paint my eyebrows every day and it really froze me out. In the morning you get up to study, your face is swollen, you try to draw something there, it turns out crooked, sometimes it’s unnatural, but you can’t put on makeup - it’s also terrible, in general, tattooing has become a salvation for me.

And now you can make it so that you don’t even have to paint your eyelashes! I looked at the photo online, it looks very attractive, the price is a bit expensive, but you always have to pay for comfort.

I made an appointment at the salon, everything was clean and sterile, they did the procedure with gloves, all the instruments (except for eyelid pads) were disposable. The effect, of course, is far from being as promised, but even with such eyelashes there is no need to apply makeup. Looks beautiful. It started to go away after the 4th week.”

IRINA, 32 YEARS OLD, KALUGA:

“I immediately noticed the difference between false eyelashes and laminated ones.
Botox not only eliminates the need to wear makeup every day, but also gives a natural look. As for me, the price for this is too high, there’s not much you can do every 2 months, but if the financial issue is not pressing, then this is simply a brilliant solution.”

Can I apply Botox to my eyelashes myself?

You can independently purchase a comprehensive Botox product for eyelashes, but performing the manipulation at home is complicated and requires special equipment. There are several reasons why the procedure is recommended in a clinical setting:

• complex performance technique requires “second hands”;
• it is difficult to prevent the medicinal composition from getting into the eyes;
• the high cost of the drug with additional components in the package requires special skill in performing manipulations;
• In addition to the presence of serum, additional means and devices are required to carry out the procedure.

Thus, performing a salon procedure is not only profitable, but also meets all safety requirements for eye health. Masters with certificates of professional fitness evaluate the feasibility, tactics and progress of the procedure, the risks of adverse reactions, and possible complications.
