When addressing wrinkles, it's crucial to preserve the patient's facial dynamism to enhance their natural beauty. Many people hesitate to use botulinum toxin due to concerns about losing facial expression or looking unrecognizable. Some even fear exaggerated eyebrow lifting or a completely flattened appearance.
To avoid these outcomes, it's important not only to use a high-quality product and the correct dosage, but also to seek treatment at a highly specialized medical centre. This ensures the procedure maintains natural facial expressions.
What is Botox?
Botulinum toxin, commonly known as Botox, has been one of the most effective and iconic treatments for facial wrinkles for nearly two decades. The procedure involves injecting this substance into the muscles of the targeted area to temporarily inhibit their movement, resulting in relaxation. This process corrects dynamic wrinkles, which form due to muscle contractions.
This toxin is highly convenient and effective in aesthetic medicine because it reduces severe wrinkles while also preventing the formation of new ones in younger skin that only shows expression lines.
