Generally, "slimming injection" refers to Botulinum Toxin Type A for injection. After receiving Botulinum Toxin Type A injections, patients can consume fruits such as bananas, apples, oranges, kiwifruits, and pears. Botulinum Toxin Type A for injection works at the neuromuscular junction by blocking the release of acetylcholine, preventing muscle fibers from contracting, weakening muscle strength, and causing disuse atrophy. This can address the issue of an overly wide lower face caused by masseter muscle hypertrophy, achieving a face slimming effect. The general reference price for Botulinum Toxin Type A injections is 1500–6000 yuan per dose. Typically, effects begin to show 7–10 days after the procedure, although patients may experience temporary side effects such as facial swelling and unnatural smiling. Detailed explanations are as follows:
1. Bananas
Bananas are rich in potassium, which helps maintain the body's electrolyte balance. They are also easily digested and do not cause excessive irritation to the injection site.
2. Apples
Apples contain various vitamins and fiber, which help promote intestinal health. Additionally, the antioxidants in apples aid in cell repair and benefit skin recovery.
3. Oranges
Citrus fruits such as oranges are rich in vitamin C, which helps enhance immunity and promote collagen synthesis, benefiting skin health and recovery.
4. Kiwifruit
Kiwifruit is an excellent source of vitamin C, which is important for collagen production—collagen being a key component of skin structure. It also helps reduce inflammation and promotes wound healing.
5. Pears
Pears not only contain abundant water and vitamins, but also have effects of clearing heat and moistening the lungs, which can help alleviate possible discomfort caused by Botulinum Toxin Type A injections.
It is recommended to visit a formal medical facility and undergo the procedure under the guidance of a qualified physician to ensure safety and effectiveness. Post-procedure care includes maintaining skin cleanliness to avoid infection and following a light diet.
