For over 25 years, Botox has helped people achieve the ideal of beauty and youth. This procedure, known for its quick effect and minimal risks, has become a symbol of modern aesthetic medicine.
Botox is a neurotoxin injected into muscles to block nerve signals and stop muscle contractions. This leads to temporary muscle paralysis, helping reduce the appearance of wrinkles on the forehead and around the eyes. The result is a relaxed, smooth, and youthful face.
Not only the face benefits from this procedure; Botox is also used to shape slimmer body contours by correcting the shape of calves and trapezius muscles.
Benefits of botox
Botox is known for its ability to:
-
Significantly reduce the appearance of wrinkles and lines, restoring youth and freshness to the skin.
-
Effectively smooth out “crow’s feet” and other fine wrinkles, highlighting the natural beauty of your face.
-
Smooth frown lines, making you look happier and more rested.
-
Reduce the visibility of under-eye bags, renewing and refreshing your look.
-
Treat excessive sweating, improving your everyday comfort.
Targeted areas
Dermatologists carefully work with each targeted area, including the forehead, lines between the eyebrows, the eye area, jawline, skin, trapezius muscles, calves, and wrinkles around the eyes to achieve the best results.
Jaw botox
This procedure is especially suitable for those suffering from bruxism (teeth grinding) and jaw pain. If the procedure is deemed necessary, approximately 50 to 100 units of Botox are injected into your chewing muscle.
Skin botox
This method is ideal for reducing pore visibility, wrinkles, and controlling excess oil and redness, making it an excellent choice for people with oily skin prone to acne and pigmentation. Unlike traditional Botox procedures, where the substance is injected into the muscles to reduce wrinkles, Skin Botox is injected into the upper skin layer, targeting various areas of the face. This creates a smoothing and lifting effect, making the skin look younger and fresher.
Body botox: traps, calves (100 units)
This procedure is especially suitable for those with naturally broad or exercise-developed trapezius muscles and calves. Botox is recommended for these areas if muscle hypertrophy causes the increase in volume. However, if the increase is due to excess subcutaneous fat, Botox may not be the most effective solution.
To achieve the best results, we recommend undergoing Botox treatment every 3-6 months. This will help you maintain the desired effect and enjoy slimmer and more attractive body contours.
Precautions
-
Protect your face: After the Botox procedure, it is important to avoid touching the treated areas of the face and body. We strongly recommend refraining from this for a few days to prevent the spread of the toxin and maintain maximum treatment effectiveness.
-
Limit alcohol consumption: To minimize the risk of bruising and swelling, we advise abstaining from alcohol for 24 hours after the procedure. Remember, alcohol can negatively affect treatment results, so it’s best to wait at least a day before consuming it again.
-
Avoid other skin procedures: Your skin needs time to recover after Botox. We strongly recommend postponing other skin procedures, such as facials, dermal fillers, peels, and facial massages, to ensure the best results and avoid complications.
-
Protect yourself from the sun: Avoid direct sunlight for 24-48 hours after the procedure. Excessive sun exposure can lead to bruising, redness, and increased risk of high blood pressure. The best solution is to stay in the shade and use sunscreen with SPF.
By following these simple tips, you will help your skin recover after the Botox procedure and achieve the best results.
