About
Neuromodulators (Botox® and Xeomin®) improve the appearance of, among other things, forehead wrinkles, glabella and crow's feet.
Wrinkles are formed by many factors; cellular changes, collagen reduction and free radicals caused by the sun. A predominant factor is repeated muscle contraction by frowning the eyebrows. When you frown, the muscles contract, causing your skin to crease and fold.
Your specialist can inject certain muscles with neuromodulators to temporarily reduce their muscle activity. Thus, after the injection, you will notice a smoother appearance of the treated area.
The most commonly treated areas:
- The glabella: the wrinkles that form between the eyebrows over time, caused by repeated frowning.
- The horizontal folds on the forehead: the wrinkles on the forehead are shaped by the repeated elevation of the eyebrows during all kinds of emotions.
- The crow's feet: when smiling, the thin skin around the eye tends to form wrinkles.

What can I expect?
Your specialist will discuss your treatment goals and perform a facial analysis to determine the appropriate treatment for you.
Some patients report that neuromodulator injections feels like a small pinch. The discomfort felt is minimal and very brief.
The actual injection process takes about 10 minutes.
You can notice results after 48 hours and the results can last up to 4 months.
You will look the same and still be able to make any facial expressions without any problem. But, only with fewer wrinkles. Probably many people around you are getting the benefit from Botox injection, without you knowing. The treatments remove wrinkles, but keep the face perfectly natural.
