Wrinkle Treatment

One of the most popular non-surgical procedures in plastic surgery today is Botulinum Toxin (commonly known as “Botox”). This treatment is derived from a naturally occurring bacterium and works by gently relaxing the muscles that cause wrinkles. Most of the lines we see on the face and neck—such as forehead creases, frown lines, and crow’s feet—are dynamic wrinkles formed by repeated muscle activity. The main goal of botulinum toxin is to smooth out these lines while keeping your natural expressions.

When performed correctly, your facial expressions remain intact—you still look like yourself, only fresher. Instead of creating an artificial or “frozen” look, the treatment simply relaxes the skin, softening wrinkles and giving you a more youthful, radiant appearance. If applied improperly, it can lead to exaggeratedly arched brows or a surprised expression. That’s why choosing an experienced physician is key to achieving natural, beautiful results. After a well-done treatment, people are more likely to say “You look great, but I can’t tell why” rather than “Did you get Botox?”

Botulinum toxin is most commonly used for:

The procedure itself takes only about 5–10 minutes, and you can return to your daily routine immediately afterward. Results start to appear within 2–3 days, become fully visible in about a week, and last for 4–6 months. With regular treatments, the effects can last even longer. Side effects are extremely rare when performed by qualified specialists. However, since there are no clinical studies during pregnancy, we do not recommend the treatment for expectant mothers.

In addition to cosmetic benefits, botulinum toxin is also safely used to treat medical conditions such as migraines and excessive sweating in the underarms and palms.
