Botox is a medical aesthetic method used to soften the fine lines that deepen over the years with facial expressions; applied correctly and in moderation, it relaxes the face without freezing your expression.
What Is Botox?
Botox is the application, with very fine needles, of a substance that temporarily relaxes excessive muscle contraction. It is most often preferred for the forehead lines, frown (glabellar) lines and the eye area (crow's feet). The aim is not to erase lines completely, but to rest a tired, tense look while preserving your natural expression.
Who Is It Suitable For?
- Those with forehead, frown or eye-area lines that deepen with expression
- Those wanting a preventive approach for lines that have not yet set
- Those seeking a subtle upward freshness in the brows (a brow-lift effect)
- Those who want a natural, understated rested appearance
How Is It Performed?
Before the procedure, your facial expressions are assessed both at rest and in motion; a personalised plan is drawn up according to the direction of your lines and your muscle structure. The procedure takes only a few minutes and, performed with very fine needles, is generally well tolerated.
The effect appears gradually over a few days rather than instantly, becoming fully visible in about two weeks. The effect is not permanent; it lasts a few months on average and can be repeated.
Results & Recovery
You can return to your daily life immediately. It is advised not to lie down for the first few hours, not to rub the area, and to avoid intense exercise the same day. Mild redness may occur. The result is a rested look that preserves your expression.
