The first effects of Botox (botulinum toxin) appear three to four days after treatment. These effects help reduce facial wrinkles caused by expressions in the upper third of the face (forehead, the area between the eyebrows and around the eyes), resulting in a softer, more youthful look.
The maximum results of botulinum toxin are usually reached after 15 days. At that point, if needed, a check-up is carried out to optimise the final result. The most pronounced muscle relaxation is seen during the first three months, although in some patients the effects can last up to six months.
Gradually these effects fade and natural expression lines reappear, prompting the patient to decide whether to maintain the treatment. Repeated long-term treatments lead to a progressive reduction in wrinkle intensity.
To respect each individual’s facial dynamics and natural beauty, we prefer a more cautious initial approach to the amount of product used and closer follow-up. We approach every patient individually, tailoring the treatment to their specific needs and wishes while keeping a natural look.
