BOTULINUM TOXIN
Softening wrinkles and expression lines
Rejuvenate Your Expression with Botulinum Toxin
More than aesthetics: it's about preserving your facial identity, with lightness and naturalness.
Botulinum toxin, popularly known as Botox, is a purified biological substance that has been used for decades in both aesthetic medicine and neurology for its ability to temporarily block muscle action without damaging the nerve endings. In aesthetics, it is the main ally in treating dynamic wrinkles: those formed by the repeated action of the expression muscles, such as when smiling, frowning or squinting.
💉 How is it applied?
The toxin is injected with very fine micro-needles directly into the muscles responsible for the movements that create expression lines. The number of injection points, dose and depth are fully personalized, respecting each patient's anatomy and aesthetic wishes. The procedure is quick (about 15 minutes), practically painless and requires no time off from daily activities.
A review is usually done after 15 days to check symmetry and make any touch-ups.
📍 Areas most often treated with toxin:
-
Forehead: softens horizontal lines that convey worry and age the expression.
-
Glabella: treats the “angry lines” between the eyebrows for a softer look.
-
Crow's feet: softens the lines around the eyes while keeping a natural smile.
-
Tail of the eyebrow: provides a subtle lift of the eyelid, opening up the eyes.
-
Other uses: control of hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), gummy smile, bruxism and even migraine.
🌟 Natural results and safety above all
When applied by a qualified professional, botulinum toxin preserves the face's natural expressions. No “frozen” look! The modern technique seeks a balanced result, softening lines without completely eliminating movement, respecting your facial identity.
👩⚕️ Who is it for?
Ideally, treatment should start before wrinkles are visible even at rest. Age is not the deciding factor; the indication depends on each person's facial expression. Some young patients, from age 23, already have visible wrinkles due to strong expressiveness, while some patients over 30 simply want to prevent them.
🕒 Duration and results
The effects appear 3 to 5 days after treatment and reach the final result around day 15. Duration varies with each patient's metabolism, expressiveness and habits, but it generally lasts about 4 months. Athletes, for example, tend to metabolize it faster.
🔄 What if you don't like the result?
The good news is that the effect is completely reversible over time. If you are not satisfied (which is rare when the technique is well performed), the effects fade naturally within 4 months. That is why a careful conversation with the practitioner before treatment is essential, aligning expectations, goals and priority areas. Here, “less is more” is key.
✅ Safety first
When applied with the correct technique, side effects are minimal; only small bruises or local tenderness may appear, which disappear within a few days. In inexperienced hands, however, toxin can cause asymmetry or a loss of facial naturalness. That is why it is essential to rely on a qualified and ethical professional.
