What is Botulinum Toxin?
Botulinum toxin is an effective medical aesthetic treatment that reduces the appearance of wrinkles and slows down the formation of new ones by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles. When properly planned, the aim is not to alter facial expressions, but to achieve a more rested and natural appearance. At our clinic, botulinum toxin treatments are tailored to each individual, taking into account the patient’s facial anatomy, facial expression patterns and expectations.
In which regions can it be implemented?
Botulinum toxin is most commonly administered in the following areas:
- Forehead lines
- Lines between the eyebrows
- Around the eyes (crow’s feet)
- Fine expression lines on the nose
- Irregularities on the jaw
- Platysma bands on the neck
- Masseter muscle (jawline slimming and treatment for teeth grinding)
The areas to be treated for each patient are determined following an individual assessment.
