Botox\u2014short for botulinum toxin\u2014is used to temporarily relax specific facial muscles to smooth expression lines and soften wrinkles. It is a safe and well-studied treatment with minimal side effects and can be used repeatedly over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The cost of a Botox injection ranges from \u20ac300 to \u20ac900<\/strong>, depending on the number of areas treated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Botox is a purified protein derived from bacteria. When injected in tiny amounts just beneath the skin, it works by blocking nerve signals<\/strong> that trigger muscle contraction. As the treated muscle relaxes, the wrinkles caused by its movements become less visible\u2014or disappear entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Botox is administered in the office without the need for anesthesia. For particularly sensitive individuals, Emla\u00ae numbing cream<\/strong> can be applied two hours before treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Results appear within 2\u20134 days<\/strong>, with optimal effects around 3 weeks. The initial results typically last 3 to 4 months<\/strong>. If you maintain regular intervals (3\u20134 months during the first year), you can often space treatments every 6 months<\/strong> thereafter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A new toxin Relfydess <\/strong>was launched in early 2025. Its effect is set up earlier, more powerful and can last up to 6 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We use Azzalure\u00ae<\/strong> (Botulinum Toxin A) in over 60% of our cases. It is potent and long-lasting, particularly effective for men. Depending on the desired effect, we may also use Vistabel\u00ae<\/strong> or Bocouture\u00ae<\/strong>.We avoid injections near the upper part of the mouth<\/strong>, as even in expert hands, it may result in temporary smile asymmetry.<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n\r\n No. Although derived from a toxic substance, Botox is administered in extremely low doses<\/strong>, making it completely safe when injected by a qualified professional. However, it is contraindicated<\/strong> in patients with neuromuscular disorders<\/strong> (e.g., myasthenia) and during pregnancy<\/strong> or breastfeeding<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/details>\r\n Our tailored approach starts with a detailed facial assessment. By mapping your facial muscle activity, we can customize the dose<\/strong> to achieve a natural result\u2014such as preserving slight brow elevation while softening wrinkles.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/details>\r\n No. Botox is fully metabolized within 4 months and does not have known long-term neurological effects<\/strong>. However, some patients may develop mild allergic reactions<\/strong> or resistance<\/strong> to a specific brand. Switching products usually resolves this.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/details>\r\n Most patients repeat Botox injections 2 to 3 times per year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/details>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Benefits of Botox Injections Botox\u2014short for botulinum toxin\u2014is used to temporarily relax specific facial muscles to smooth expression lines and soften wrinkles.
