Botulinum toxin

A wrinkle-free, flawless face – that’s what many people want. This wish can also be fulfilled without surgery, with botulinum toxin, or Botox® for short. With the optimal dosage of the active ingredient, this protein smoothes the so-called facial wrinkles and thus results in a clearly visible reduction in wrinkles.

To achieve this, Botox® treatments involve injecting very small amounts into specific muscles. This results in a relaxation of the respective muscles, resulting in a smooth and visually rejuvenated skin appearance. This type of wrinkle treatment leads to a reduction in lines and facial wrinkles on the face.

What is Botox®?

Botulinum toxin is a biotechnologically derived protein that is produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum and blocks neuromuscular impulse transmission. This means that the muscles responsible for creating facial wrinkles are inactivated by the protein. The effect is visible after just a few days.

Botox® is used in relatively high doses to treat pathological muscle cramps (spasms). The treatment of facial wrinkles with botulinum has been carried out since 1989. The correct dosage and precise positioning of botulinum are crucial here. However, Botox® has been used successfully in modern aesthetic medicine for decades, so patients do not have to worry about a toxic reaction due to too high a dose.

Operations carry far greater risks than injections using a syringe. The big advantage of wrinkle treatment with Botox® is that no surgical intervention is necessary. At the same time, an intervention of this type requires less time investment. Patients benefit from the positive effects of this gentle wrinkle removal method after a short time and with little effort. In addition, the treatment involves little or no pain.
