Botulinum toxin, also known as "Botox", is used mainly to reduce facial wrinkles in the forehead, between the eyebrows and around the eyes. It is one of the most effective methods of treating the hyperfunctioning muscles that cause wrinkles. Commercially available products like Botox are globally recognized for their quality and effectiveness. However, this treatment is not just aesthetic - it also helps with problems such as excessive sweating or muscle tension (e.g. chewing muscles).
Botulinum toxin is injected with a very thin needle directly into the muscles or subcutaneous tissue of the treated area. The number of application points depends on the size and nature of the area to be treated. The procedure is almost painless and takes only a few minutes. After the treatment, you can immediately return to your daily activities. Over the following days, the active substance will begin to work, achieving the desired effect.

- Persons with neurological diseases (e.g. myasthenia gravis)

Yes, botulinum toxin can be part of a comprehensive skin care plan. A combination with hyaluronic acid , for example, is recommended for hydration and lifting effect.
The application of botulinum toxin is usually only minimally painful. Many patients describe a gentle pricking sensation that is well tolerated. When injected into the areas of the claws, palms and soles, an anaesthetic cream is applied 30 minutes prior to the procedure to ensure maximum comfort.
