BOTULINUM TOXIN (BOTOX)
Treatment with Botulinum Toxin, commonly known as Botox is particularly suitable for reducing dynamic wrinkles, i.e. wrinkles caused by the repetitive movements of facial muscles.
During the treatment, the toxin is injected into specific muscles of the face, temporarily blocking their contractions. As a result, the treated muscles relax and expression lines are reduced: the facial skin appears smoother and more even.
In the upper third of the face:
Botulinum Toxin is effective in treating forehead wrinkles, wrinkles around the eyes and wrinkles between the eyebrows.
In the lower third of the face:
The gummy smile, also known as ‘gingival smile’, is an aesthetic disharmony characterised by excessive exposure of the gums while smiling. This condition affects more than one in three people and can have a negative effect on the perception of personal attractiveness and confidence. Given the great importance of the smile in the assessment of facial aesthetics, gummy smile can often be responsible for discomfort and embarrassment in the social sphere. Botulinum toxin, in these cases, is able to reduce the activity of the elevator muscles of the upper lip, relaxing them to give a more attractive smile and less gum exposure.
The advantages of this type of treatment are many: it is quick, minimally invasive and generally well tolerated by patients. Moreover, it does not require a significant recovery period, allowing a return to normal activities almost immediately. Results are visible a few days after treatment and can last for several months (3-4 or 6 months).
To maintain the results, it is useful/necessary to repeat the treatment every 6 months. If you wish to reduce wrinkles and achieve a more youthful and relaxed appearance, Botulinum Toxin may be the ideal solution for you. Our priority is to offer safe and targeted treatments that reflect the client’s expectations and aesthetic wishes.
