There’s no question that when you feel great about how you look, you behave differently. The differences may be subtle, but they are powerful. In this post we discuss how Botox® can help you feel more confident. 

If you’ve ever had the experience of getting dressed up and feeling like a different person, you know how much your appearance can affect how you feel. When you feel like you look good, you move through the world differently, and your view shifts.

At kalon Dermatology, our providers offer Botox® injections at our office in Brooklyn, New York. As one of the most well-known and thoroughly researched cosmetic procedures, Botox is generally considered very safe and extremely effective in dealing with fine lines and wrinkles. We’ve noticed that our patients who receive Botox injections tend to project greater confidence.  

As a cosmetic procedure, the whole point of Botox is to help you feel great about how you look. In this post we discuss some of the ways self-confidence can help you live your best life.  

You’re more willing to put yourself forward

Whether you want to go for a promotion at work, meet someone you admire, or start a new hobby, when you aren’t worried about how you look, it’s easier to go for it. Instead of wondering if you seem too old to take up a new activity, you can just relax and enjoy it.

You may not be aware that you feel insecure about your appearance, but it’s entirely possible that it’s holding you back from doing things you really want to do. Botox can help you worry less about how you’re perceived.  

You look the way you feel

Have you ever looked in the mirror and been surprised by your reflection? Maybe you look much more tired than you actually feel? Or less vital?  

When that happens, it can change the way you feel rather than the other way around. If your reflection says you’re tired, maybe you start to feel less enthusiastic. With Botox, your reflection will begin to match how you feel on the inside.  

You can focus on others more

As strange as it may seem, when you feel more confident about yourself, you can spend more time thinking about other people, and that tends to lead to better relationships. If you’re worrying about how you look, you may not be paying very close attention to what other people are saying or doing.  

When you don’t have to think about how you look, when you feel certain that you look just fine, you have more mental focus to offer your friends, loved ones, co-workers, and anyone else with whom you interact.  

You worry less

How much time do you spend worrying? Do your worries about your appearance tend to make you worry over other things, too? When you receive Botox injections and you’re pleased with the results — as most people are — you have one less thing to worry about. Less worry is good!
