Botulinum therapy
The presence of mimic wrinkles is one of the most common cosmetic problems of the facial skin. This skin condition can be called "the skin of emotional people", since facial wrinkles are formed as a result of constant stretching of the skin by facial muscles when expressing certain experiences and emotions.
If you experience symptoms of an illness, please consult a doctor.
Mimic wrinkles appear easily, but are quite difficult to treat. Since not all patients agree to plastic surgery, the frequent appeals of patients to cosmetologists and dermatologists around the world regarding the presence of mimic wrinkles on the face caused the need to find a reliable and highly effective drug with a long-lasting effect. These are the drugs used today in botulinum therapy.
Botulinum therapy
An injection method of skin rejuvenation that uses modern preparations of Botulinum toxin type A — a purified natural protein that has the ability to relax hyperactive facial muscles, which are the cause of the appearance of facial wrinkles, in very small doses.
Botox injection
Botulinum toxin injections are painless, so they do not require additional anesthesia. The average duration of the procedure is 15-30 minutes for one area. The result of the botulinum therapy procedure becomes noticeable from the 4th day (up to 14 days, depending on the individual reaction). And the duration of the effect is 3-6 months. To achieve the desired effect, it is necessary to carry out botulinum therapy at least twice a year, and with each subsequent procedure, the dose of the drug is reduced, and the duration of the effect is extended. After 1.5 - 2 years of using botulinum toxin, the habit of wrinkling a lot disappears, which is also the best prevention against the appearance of facial wrinkles.
