Botulinum Toxin:

How does it work?
Botox/ Dysport/Azzalure ( Botulinum Toxin Type A )  when administered  have the effect of temporarily weakening the muscles responsible for wrinkling, giving the face a more relaxed, pleasant and younger appearance, the wrinkles become smoother or may disappear altogether.

What is Botox? (Botulinum Toxin)
Botulinum toxin is a purified protein, which has the effect of temporarily weakening muscles. It has safely and effectively been used in medicine for over 30 years to treat conditions such as strabismus (cross–eye) blepharospasm (lid spasm) and cerebral palsy. It has been used successfully for the cosmetic treatment of facial lines for over 15 years.

When and how long does Botox (Botulinum toxin) work?
The initial effects of treatment become visible within 48 to 72 hours, the maximum effect is reached in about 1-2 weeks. Your facial expression will become more relaxed but by no means mask-like. The overall result is very natural.
The effect of Botox generally lasts 3-4 months, depending on the patient.
The longer one has been having “Botox” the longer the effect lasts.
If you decide to stop treatment, any permanent lines and wrinkles will gradually return.

What if my lines are deep?
If your lines are very deep we may also discuss the additional use of dermal fillers which contain Hyaluronic acid to fill in and smooth wrinkles.

Why have Botox?
Many people chose to have Botulinum toxin to look fresher, less tired, less stressed and ultimately younger.
