What is Spilanthes?

Spilanthol, also called Spilanthes, is perhaps the miracle plant we all have been searching for. Originally from South America, Spilanthes is a natural, herbal extract that comes from the flower paracress. Paracress blooms into a radiant orange and yellow flower that has had many applications for indigenous people spanning centuries of use. It has a local anesthetic effect as well as anti-inflammatory properties, making it an excellent natural medicine for headaches, asthma, and other sources of inflammation. Spilanthes also has been found to have an antioxidant effect, which could assist the skin in protecting against pollution, UV rays, and environmental factors.

How does Spilanthes work?

Since Spilanthes works as an anesthetic and numbs the skin locally, if this plant-based active ingredient is applied, it can relax the layers of skin and muscles that are responsible for causing wrinkles. This targets the root of the formation of fine lines and wrinkles, allowing the skin’s surface to appear smooth and tightened. Unlike Botox though, this natural herbal extract still allows for movement of the facial muscles. Not only does Spilanthes work by relaxing layers of skin cells, but it also assists the body in the production of collagen, helping it to feel and look firmer. Because of these results, Spilanthes has come to be known as the ‘bio-botox’: the natural, organic botox which successfully works as an anti-aging remedy.

The potentially harmful effects of Botox

Botox may be one of the more popular choices for getting rid of unwanted wrinkles and fine lines, but it can also come with some dangerous side effects. Surprisingly, botox comes from one of the most poisonous biological substances that has ever been discovered, Botulinum. It is a chemical toxin that stops muscles from contracting by blocking important signals from your nerves. This in turn also prevents the formation of wrinkles. While it may be effective in slowing the progression of aging skin, it can also lead to some serious harmful consequences that natural products do not have.

When botox was first introduced to the cosmetic world, it was injected in very small doses into the patient. It was thought since it was injected in these low concentrations that there would be no problem with the chemical spreading to the central nervous system and possibly causing harm. However, in 2009 the Food and Drug Administration issued a warning concerning botox. The FDA warned that this toxin may leave the injection site area and could even produce dangerous side effects associated with the symptoms of botulism poisoning.

One of these potentially dangerous consequences is nerve poisoning. Researchers in a scientific report published in 2016 show that they have observed clear evidence of nerve cells passing along the toxin between neurons. Because botox is a toxin, if it spreads throughout the body like this, it can lead to problems such as loss of muscle strength and nerve function. Some further complications even include swallowing or breathing problems. This can have dire consequences for the recipient of the botox­­­­­ injection and lead to long-term health problems. A natural, organic option to help with wrinkles and fine lines is a necessity to avoid these extreme problems. For this, we turn to the plant power of Spilanthes seeds and flowers.

What can we do instead to get botox-like results? 

Instead of injecting a potentially dangerous toxin like botox into our bodies, it is recommended to use a natural, plant-based product that can also help with our anti-aging skin care routine. A skin care necessity like JK7®’s Face-Lifting Booster can help target those wrinkles and fine lines, due to it containing the natural, healthy botox alternative- Spilanthes. The Face-Lifting Booster has been newly relaunched, and it is packed with refreshing and revitalizing ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid and Silver Ear Mushrooms.

The combination of these powerful herbal extracts targets and works effectively on the same points as botox, but is completely natural and without toxicity or harmful effects. The Spilanthes seeds with the Silver Ear Mushrooms provide ample moisture and firmness while increasing smoothness and decreasing the appearance of wrinkles.

JK7® Face-Lifting Booster

A bonus effect of using products that contain seeds of Spilanthes, such as JK7®’s Face-Lifting Booster, is that due to Spila­­nthes’ anti-inflammatory nature, it can boost other products’ efficacies if they are used together. This is another reason why the Face-Lifting Booster can successfully reduce wrinkles and fine lines: it is combined with the power-house ingredient of Hyaluronic Acid. Because of this anti-inflammatory effect, by using the JK7® Rejuvenation Serum-Lotion after the Face-Lifting Booster you can reap all the benefits of Spilanthes and add even more efficacy to the miracle plant extract.

Spilanthes may be the magic skin care ingredient we have been waiting for, with younger, radiant skin possible without all the harmful effects of botox. This healthy, plant-based alternative can change the way our skin looks and feels. Since Spilanthes is a plant-derived extract and not a chemical toxin, the results will leave you worry-free with no fear of potential nerve poisoning. It is no longer required to risk our health and peace of mind to achieve youthful, rejuvenated skin. Spilanthes can help provide us with this pure and organic option.
