Botulinum toxin

Botulinum toxin (Botox) is a naturally purified protein produced by means of the bacteria Clostridium botulinum.

If you wish, it can be carefully and precisely applied in very small quantities to stop the pulsing between the nerves and facial muscles, which shape your facial expression. This causes the relaxation of the mimic muscles, prevents them from consciously and subconsciously excessively contracting so that the skin covering them can become soft and smooth.

It is most frequently used for the elimination of forehead wrinkles, vertical wrinkles above the base of the nose, tiny wrinkles around the eyes or in a combination with other aesthetic operations of the face. It is less frequently used for the elimination of wrinkles on other parts of the face, neck and bust-line.

Botox therapy can also aid the problem of excessive perspiration in the underarms, hands and feet. In this case, the effects last approximately 6—12 months.
 
Therapy with botulinum toxin on the face, neck or bust-line will last approximately 10—15 minutes; during this time, our experts will inject a small quantity of botulinum toxin using a tiny needle. The effects last approximately 4—6 months. Botulinum toxin injection may be repeated several times in successive intervals.
