Barbie Botox Trend On The Rise: Eager Patrons Flock To Clinics For The Magic Margot Robbie Look
Fans' passion for Barbie continues to increase even months after the movie's release. People imitate Barbie's style and behaviours, but a new fad has evolved in which eager patrons are modifying their bodies to match the film's lead actress, Margot Robbie.?
'Barbie Botox' Trend Inspired By Margot Robbie Gathers Steam
The Barbie Botox or Trap Tox viral trend has ladies flocking to clinics for toxin-based procedures. Botulinum toxins, such as Botox, are injected into the upper back muscles, and are commonly used to treat migraines and shoulder pain.?
However, following the publication of Greta Gerwig's film in July, there has been an increase in demand for these cosmetic operations, with the TikTok hashtag BarbieBotox garnering over a million views.
According to Revance Therapeutics President Dustin Sjuts, the surgery is intended to "supposedly slim the neck," which has been linked to the actress playing Barbie. According to Scot Glasberg, president-elect of the Plastic Surgery Foundation, this trend is not about addressing wrinkles or loose skin; rather, "they want less girth to their neck, a slimmer, more contoured neck."
Because the cosmetic process for facial treatment is normally limited, utilising them in the trapezius area is deemed "off-label." In such circumstances, the US Food and Drug Administration delegated to healthcare professionals the obligation of determining whether the procedure is "medically appropriate."?
While makers of Botox and comparable toxins, such as Revance and Evolus, note the growing interest in Barbie Botox, they do not anticipate a significant boost in sales as a result of this trend.?
Here's what dermatologists are saying?
Meanwhile, dermatologist Shilpi Kheterpal of the Cleveland Clinic expresses concern about the long-term implications of large doses of Botox injections. She believes that if people receive Botox treatments on a regular basis, the effects will fade over time.?
She adds, "Not just with Botox, but with the other products on the market as well, because they all have some similar molecule."?
Isabelle Lux, a well-known beauty and lifestyle social media influencer, is credited with coining the term "Barbie Botox." "It came from the idea that you would look more like a Barbie when you get it done, which I don't think is a bad thing," she remarked in an interview with CNN. When done correctly, it elongates the neck, slims the shoulders, and provides a very delicate body."?
Lux, who paid $1,200 for the Barbie Botox treatment, says she was told to avoid heavy backpacks, exercise, and massages for at least 72 hours after the procedure. "I was actually quite scared," Lux acknowledged.?
There is no way to reverse the effects of Botox. I had a lot of pain, strain, and stiffness in my neck, shoulders, and upper back during the first week. "I was extremely concerned." After two months, though, the content creator felt better than ever and is already arranging another session for the winter.?
