The goal of Botulinum Toxin injection is to smoothen the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines caused by constant muscle movements like smiling, laughing and frowning. It works on the neuromuscular junction and causes temporary paralysis of the muscle, thereby easing the muscles which contract and contribute to wrinkles.
The common areas targeted include:
When used with the correct technique and expertise, Botulinum Toxin micro injections can also gently lift the lower third of the face which causes jowling - the usual target of a surgical facelift. This treatment involves multiple micro injections placed strategically, which temporarily tightens the skin, creating a more lifted appearance. Results can be seen in 3-5 days and last up to 4–6 months. This constitutes the 20min Liquid Facelift.
