BOTULINUM TOXIN INJECTION – BOTOX<\/b><\/h2><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Botulinum toxin<\/strong> is used in aesthetic medicine to treat “dynamic” wrinkles of the face.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/i><\/span><\/div>What are the principles and objectives ?<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\nBotulinum toxin – Botox is an active substance that allows to reduce in a targeted way the excessive contraction of the muscles of the face by acting directly at the neuromuscular junction.<\/p>\n
Indeed, ageing leads in particular to an involuntary contraction of the muscles of the face, resulting in the appearance of wrinkles known as “dynamic” wrinkles because they are reversible if this muscular contraction disappears.<\/p>\n
\u00a0This is precisely what Botox botulinum toxin injections allow.<\/p>\n
This medical aesthetic treatment is proposed for young subjects from the age of 30 with supple and good quality skin as soon as these natural wrinkles appear, as well as for older subjects with established wrinkles.<\/p>\n
It is this muscular contraction that is responsible for the appearance of dynamic wrinkles in the upper third of the face:<\/p>\n
\n- Horizontal wrinkles of the forehead <\/em><\/li>\n
- Vertical lines of the glabella between the eyes (Lion Wrinkles)<\/em><\/li>\n
- Wrinkles of the crow’s feet at the corner of the eyes<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Other wrinkles located in the lower part of the face can also be treated by botulinum toxin injection:<\/em><\/p>\n\n- Bitterness folds, descending from each corner of the mouth…<\/em><\/li>\n
- Chin wrinkles – Orange peel appearance of the chin<\/em><\/li>\n
- Wrinkles around the mouth, on the upper lip<\/em><\/li>\n
- Neck baleen – platysma strings or bands<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/i><\/span><\/div>
How does an injection session for treatment take place?<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\nThe injections take place at the doctor’s office in Nice, after an information consultation.<\/p>\n
A session lasts about 10 to 20 minutes. It is carried out by your surgeon under conditions of strict aseptic conditions.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/i><\/span><\/div>Mode of anesthesia<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\nNo anaesthesia is necessary; extremely fine gauge needles are used, allowing these injections to be carried out in conditions of optimal comfort, without pain.<\/p>\n
Muscle contractions are performed to fix the injected botulinum toxin. Any massage of the injected area is contraindicated to avoid diffusion of the product.<\/p>\n
Immediate resumption of activities is possible after the injection, as soon as you leave the practice.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/i><\/span><\/div>What are the consequences and results ?<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\n\nThe result is visible after a few days, and optimal 2 weeks after the session.<\/p>\n
A check-up consultation takes place on the 10th day, allowing a small touch-up if necessary.<\/p>\n
This result is not definitive; it will last about 4 to 5 months.<\/p>\n
A new Botox injection session can then be considered.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
