Botox

Botox is widely recognised as one of the leading anti-ageing treatments for the upper face and has become one of the most popular procedures in aesthetic medicine. Whether referred to as botulinum toxin, a neuromodulator or simply Botox, it is particularly effective in smoothing expression lines across the forehead, between the eyebrows and around the eyes.

What Is Botox?

Botox is an injectable treatment containing botulinum toxin type A and is considered one of the most effective treatments for reducing visible signs of ageing.

It works by targeting specific facial muscles responsible for the formation of expression lines. By temporarily reducing their activity, Botox limits the repetitive muscle contractions that cause wrinkles to appear on the skin.

Botox primarily treats dynamic expression lines by reducing the release of acetylcholine from motor neurons and therefore decreasing the contraction of the facial muscles.

It may also help delay the appearance and progression of static wrinkles, which develop over time due to factors such as skin quality, genetics, sun exposure, smoking, nutrition and hormonal changes.

Different Applications of Botox

Full Botox

Full Botox treatment targets the forehead, frown lines between the eyebrows and crow’s feet around the eyes.

The treatment creates a fresher and more rested appearance by softening visible expression lines without unnecessarily affecting the natural movement and expressiveness of the face.

Baby Botox

Στοχεύει σε νεότερα άτομα ή σε εκείνα με μικρές ρυτίδες έκφρασης, χρησιμοποιώντας μικρότερες δόσεις μπότοξ. Λειτουργεί επίσης ως προληπτικό μέτρο κατά της πρώιμης εμφάνισης ρυτίδων.

Baby Botox

Baby Botox is generally suitable for younger patients or individuals with mild expression lines.

It uses smaller and more precisely targeted doses of botulinum toxin to create a subtle and natural-looking result.

Baby Botox may also be used preventatively to help delay the early formation of deeper expression lines.

Masseter Botox

Masseter Botox targets the muscles located along the sides of the jaw.

The treatment may help soften a square or muscular jawline, creating a slimmer and more balanced lower face.

It may also be considered for patients who experience excessive jaw clenching or teeth grinding, following an appropriate clinical assessment.

These specialised applications target specific areas of the face.

Benefits of Botox

Safety and Effectiveness

Botox is a well-established treatment that offers a reliable and effective option for reducing visible signs of ageing when administered by an appropriately qualified and experienced doctor.

Personalised Treatment and Natural-Looking Results

One of the main advantages of Botox is that the treatment can be adapted to the individual needs, facial structure and muscle activity of each patient.

This personalised approach allows the treatment to enhance the patient’s natural features and create a refreshed appearance without producing an artificial or frozen result.

Most patients can return to their normal daily activities immediately after their appointment, while following the aftercare instructions provided by the doctor.

Botox Treatment Step by Step: What to Expect

11. Consultation with the Doctor
The process begins with a detailed consultation. The doctor assesses the condition of your skin, the activity of your facial muscles and any age-related changes, while also discussing your individual aesthetic goals.
22. Establishing Your Expectations
Understanding your expectations is essential in developing a treatment plan that is aligned with your desired result. The doctor will explain what Botox can realistically achieve and recommend the most appropriate areas and dosage for your facial anatomy.
33. Cleansing the Skin
Before treatment, the areas where Botox will be administered are thoroughly cleansed.
44. Application of Anaesthetic Cream
A topical anaesthetic cream may then be applied to minimise any discomfort during the injections.
55. Mapping the Treatment Areas
The doctor identifies and marks the precise injection points according to the movement of the facial muscles and the areas where expression lines are most visible.
66. Administering the Treatment
Botox is injected using a very fine needle. The amount of product and the precise injection points are determined according to the findings of the consultation, the patient’s anatomy and the desired outcome.
77. Aftercare
Following treatment, you will receive detailed instructions on how to care for the treated areas and which activities should be temporarily avoided.
