Botox (botulinum toxin) is an effective medication available today for the treatment of dynamic facial wrinkles. Botox blocks the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscles. Thanks to Botox treatment, frown lines, forehead wrinkles (worry lines) and crow’s feet can be smoothed out.
The BellaDerma specialist centre offers Botox treatments in Berlin Mitte and Berlin Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf. All treatments are carried out exclusively by experienced specialists in plastic and aesthetic medicine.
Botulinum toxin A is a naturally occurring protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. It is known by the trade names Vistabel®, Botox, Dysport, Bocouture, Azzalure and Xeomin. Botulinum toxin A is a prescription-only substance that may only be used by licensed doctors in Germany. Botox blocks certain nerve impulses and is therefore considered a so-called neurotoxin. When botulinum toxin is injected through the skin into a muscle, this muscle is temporarily completely or partially relaxed. However, other nerve functions – such as feeling, touch, temperature sensation – are not affected.
Frown lines, forehead wrinkles and crow’s feet can be treated very well with Botox. In all three cases, relaxation of the facial muscles, as induced by botulinum toxin, can lead to a significant reduction in the depth of wrinkles, resulting in a visibly more even skin appearance. Botox can be injected for medical indications against excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) in the armpits or hands. Botox can also be used as a painkiller for migraines.
The cost of a Botox treatment depends primarily on the amount of Botox units injected and the number of regions to be treated. For frown lines, forehead wrinkles or crow’s feet, at least 20 Botox units are needed. For a man with very pronounced expression lines, higher Botox doses are needed.
