BOTOX
Botox is a safe tool that weakens the muscles that cause wrinkles in the upper face. This substance produced by botulinum toxin or clostridium bacteria is purified and extracted under controlled conditions. While rejuvenating the face, Botox makes it appear more relaxed, serene and rested.
It is an effective treatment to correct wrinkles on the forehead, frown lines, and crow’s feet. Its beneficial effect, although noticeable 72 hours after treatment, reaches its maximum of 10 days later. The gesture itself takes 15 minutes. The doctor injects small amounts of toxins into the muscle.
Two annual injections are usually recommended to keep the target muscles at rest. Another treatment with Botox that has been shown to be very effective is the treatment of excessive sweating.
Face injection
Today there is a wide range of absorbable products intended for injection in order to rejuvenate the face, however the indication is not the same for everyone: Hyaluronic acid will help fill in wrinkles caused by sagging skin with age, but can also have a volumetric effect on the cheekbones or lips.
Hyaluronic acid is an essential building block of the skin. It attracts water and thus helps in hydration. Technology has been able to develop a synthetic hyaluronic acid of non-animal origin (no risk of infection), the use of which as an absorbable implant allows perfect tolerance. It can be used in the treatment of expression lines, or furrows of the face (nasolabial fold, frown lines, etc.) and neck as well as to restore a nice curve to the lips. It is an excellent treatment that will prevent wrinkles from setting in and thus delay any surgery. No test is necessary, the allergic risk being almost non-existent since it is a substance naturally present in the skin.
The injection is made with a very fine needle allowing the immediate erasure of wrinkles, furrows, and expressions, without over-correction. The consequences are simple and discreet (fleeting redness), or even completely absent, only the effect obtained will be seen immediately. The maintenance is done once or twice a year, but the result is better over the sessions. This treatment is applied with or without local anesthesia.
