Anti-wrinkle face care
Forehead wrinkles- Glabellar lines between the eyebrows
- Crow’s feet
- Around the mouth
- Chin (orange peel skin)
Ageing and repeated facial muscle contractions cause expression lines. Botulinum toxin relaxes the muscles responsible, resulting in a smoother, more relaxed and rejuvenated face.
Botulinum toxin (commonly known as Botox) is a natural protein extracted using an extremely precise process. It works by causing targeted muscle relaxation, thereby reducing expression lines. It has been the most frequently performed procedure in aesthetic medicine for several years.

57% of patients undergoing anti-wrinkle injections are aged between 40 and 54. However, preventive treatment from the age of 25–30 is becoming increasingly common.
The doctor carries out a full facial examination to assess the shape of the face, the presence of wrinkles and the texture of the skin. A key factor is to confirm that the wrinkles are the result of muscle activity and not a loss of volume.
