Botox

Botulinum toxin is an effective and safe tool used in aesthetic surgery. It enables rejuvenation of facial skin using a non-invasive procedure and creates great patient outcomes.

The botulinum toxin causes a paralysis or weakening of muscles caused by inhibited release of mediators from nerve cells, which leads to blocking the transmission of electric impulses to the muscle.

Clinical effects start becoming noticeable within 24-48 h, and the maximum effect occurs after 7-14 days and lasts, wearing off gradually, for 3-7 months. Thus, the paralysis or weakening of the muscles caused by botulinum toxin injection is completely reversible.

• vertical wrinkles of the glabella area;
• wrinkles around the corners of the eyes (“crow’s feet”);
• horizontal wrinkles of the forehead;
• wrinkles on both sides of the nose right below the bridge (bunny lines);
• wrinkles in the chin area;
• brow lift.

Botulinum toxin is used for treating axillary and palmar hyperhidrosis, and less frequently for plantar hyperhidrosis and for excessive sweating of other body areas, such as forehead or upper lip.
The full effect can be seen within a dozen or so days and lasts from a couple of months to one year. The injection of botulinum toxin in the axillary area does not have any side effects.
