Indications
Botulinum toxin is indicated for people who want to reduce expression wrinkles such as crow’s feet, forehead lines or frown lines. The treatment relaxes the muscles responsible for their formation, giving the face a younger and more relaxed look. The smoothing effect lasts from 4 to 6 months.
Botulinum toxin is effective in treating hyperhidrosis of the underarms, hands, feet or forehead. It works by blocking the nerve impulses to the sweat glands, which significantly reduces sweat production. The effect lasts for 6-12 months, significantly improving the patient’s comfort of life.
Botulinum toxin is indicated for patients suffering from bruxism, i.e. excessive teeth clenching and jaw-muscle tension. The treatment reduces tension in the masseter muscles, relieving pain and protecting the teeth from damage. In addition, it can improve the shape of the lower face, giving it a slimmer look.
Botulinum toxin is used for the gentle lifting of the eyebrows and correcting drooping corners of the mouth, which gives the face a younger and more open look. Thanks to precise administration of the toxin, the muscles responsible for these changes are weakened, and the effects are subtle and natural. It is a suitable treatment for people who wish to improve facial aesthetics without a scalpel.
How it works
Botulinum toxin works by blocking the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscles, which causes their temporary relaxation. As a result, expression wrinkles, such as those on the forehead, around the eyes or between the eyebrows, become smoothed, and the skin looks younger and fresher. The effect appears within a few days of the treatment and lasts about 3-6 months.
Application
Botulinum toxin is widely used in reducing wrinkles, lifting the eyebrows and modelling the facial oval. It can also be used to treat aesthetic problems such as a drooping corner of the mouth or a “gummy smile”. Thanks to its versatility, botulinum toxin allows subtle corrections that emphasise natural beauty.
Safety and benefits
The treatment with botulinum toxin is minimally invasive, quick and safe when performed by an experienced specialist. The risk of complications is minimal, and the patient can return to everyday activities almost immediately after the treatment. The effects not only improve appearance but also increase self-confidence and comfort in everyday functioning.
Frequently asked questions
How does botulinum toxin work?
Botulinum toxin temporarily blocks neuromuscular conduction: it relaxes selected mimic muscles, so that the skin over them smooths out. It works only locally, in the injection area.
Which areas are corrected with botulinum toxin?
Classically the forehead, frown line and crow’s feet; additionally drooping corners of the mouth, the chin, bunny lines, and therapeutically bruxism, hyperhidrosis and migraines. The scope is set by the doctor during the consultation.
When will I see the effect and how long will it last?
The first effects appear after 3-7 days, the full effect after 2 weeks. Smoothing lasts on average 4-6 months, and for therapeutic indications (e.g. hyperhidrosis) 6-12 months.
Does the face look artificial after botulinum toxin?
No, if the dose and injection points are properly chosen - the face remains naturally expressive, only without excessive frowning. The mask effect is the result of overdosing, which an experienced doctor avoids.
Is the botulinum toxin treatment painful?
Injections with a very fine needle take a few minutes and cause only minor pricks. Anaesthesia is usually not needed, but on request we apply an anaesthetic cream.
How to prepare for the procedure?
Stop alcohol for 24-48 hours, inform the doctor about medications (especially blood-thinners and aminoglycoside antibiotics) and come healthy - an infection requires rescheduling the appointment.
What are the recommendations after the treatment?
For 4 hours remain upright and do not touch the injection sites; for 48 hours avoid alcohol, the sauna, the solarium and intense exertion. Make-up - from the next day.
Is botulinum toxin safe?
Yes - it is one of the best-studied products in medicine, used for decades also in neurology and ophthalmology. Aesthetic doses are small, and side effects are rare and transient.
Do the treatments need to be repeated?
The effect is reversible - the muscles gradually regain their activity, so the treatment is repeated every 4-6 months. Regularity also works preventively, slowing the fixation of wrinkles.
Can botulinum toxin be combined with other treatments?
Yes - most often with hyaluronic acid, mesotherapy or stimulating treatments. These are the pillars of comprehensive rejuvenation plans; the order is set by the doctor.
What are the contraindications to botulinum toxin?
Pregnancy and breastfeeding, myasthenia and other neuromuscular diseases, an active infection at the injection site, an allergy to the product’s ingredients. Qualification is always carried out by a doctor.

How does the procedure go?
The product is injected with a very fine needle into marked points in the muscles; the procedure is short and usually needs no anaesthesia.
Recovery and recommendations
You return to everyday life immediately after leaving the office. For the first 24 hours, do not touch or massage the treated area; for 24-48 hours, avoid intensive sport, the sauna and alcohol. Minor redness or bruising disappears within a few days - it is easy to conceal.
Effects - when and for how long?
Effect: first effects after 3-5 days, full after 10-14; lasts 4-6 months. Durability: from a few months to 1.5 years.
The treatments can be safely repeated and combined into a plan - so that the face remains natural and rested, never “overdone”.
