What is Botulinum Toxin Type A?
Botulinum Toxin Type A, commonly known as Botox®, is the most widely used cosmetic medicine treatment for smoothing expression lines. It’s a specialized neurotoxin that’s been used in aesthetic dermatology for decades, with a strong safety profile and impressive effectiveness
It is administered intramuscularly at specific points on the face, causing temporary muscle relaxation. This reduces muscle contractions, allowing wrinkles to smooth out. The procedure is brief and painless, with results becoming visible within a few days and lasting for several months.
Where is it applied and how does it work?
The treatment is primarily applied to the forehead, glabella (between the eyebrows), and the area around the eyes known as crow’s feet. It can also be used in more specialized areas such as the upper lip (smoker’s lines), bunny lines on the nose, the neck, the corners of the mouth, and for addressing hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) or a gummy smile.
The correct dosage and application technique ensure a natural and expressive result, without causing a “frozen” facial appearance. The treatment takes only 10–15 minutes and requires no recovery time — you can return to your daily routine immediately.
What is Baby Botox?
Baby Botox is a gentler variation of the classic method, applied with much smaller doses to selected areas. This technique was originally developed for actors and individuals with expressive facial features who wish to maintain their natural look while also preventing the formation of wrinkles.
The result is more subtle and lasts 2–3 months, though with repeated sessions, its duration may increase. It’s an ideal choice for young individuals beginning preventive anti-aging care, as well as for those who prefer to avoid dramatic changes.
Results and Duration of Treatment
The effects begin to appear within 3–5 days, while the final result stabilizes between 10–15 days. Wrinkles soften, the gaze brightens, and the face looks more refreshed and youthful.
The duration of the result is typically 4–6 months, depending on factors such as skin type, muscle activity, and treatment history. With regular application, the longevity tends to increase, and wrinkles reappear more slowly and superficially.
