Botulinum toxin currently ranks first in non-surgical procedures worldwide due to its efficacy, safety, and reliable results when applied by trained and certified hands. It has the advantage of being a completely outpatient procedure; it has a short recovery time and evident results after a few days.
HOW DOES BOTULINUM TOXIN WORK?

Wrinkles or expression lines on the forehead, between the eyebrows and crow’s feet are usually caused by the contraction of the muscles under the skin. Bands generated on the neck are one of the first signs of aging, which can be treated by applying botulinum toxin.
The medicine is injected into the muscles at the forehead level, between the eyebrows, in the crow’s feet and the neck. It works by blocking the nerve impulses towards these muscles, which reduces the muscular activity that causes the lines or wrinkles that form in those areas of the face, improving these lines of expression.
WHEN CAN WE SEE THE RESULTS? HOW LONG DO THEY LAST?

They are visible immediately after the procedure; the result is achieved after 1 to 2 weeks. As the days go by, you will see a marked improvement in wrinkles and expression lines; after approximately 15 days, the result is complete and can last between 4 to 6 months, depending on the individual characteristics.

IS THE BOTULINUM TOXIN A FILLER?

No. Botulinum toxin attenuates expression lines and wrinkles based on a muscle-weakening effect; it is not a filler; there are approved fillers such as hyaluronic acid and autologous fat with defined indications.
Thanks to the botulinum toxin, you can look rejuvenated and fresh without safely losing facial expression.
The procedure’s objective is to reduce the action of the facial and neck musculature that generates changes in appearance and makes you look older. It is performed in the office, and its effect lasts from 4 to 6 months.
