Get a fresher look with Botox
Age leaves its mark on the skin, and that cannot or should not be changed. Facial expressions and facial expressions are part of one’s personal expression – and the wrinkles that appear in the skin over time are part of one’s history and bear witness, for example, to a life full of smiles and laughter.
However, you may experience that the wrinkles settle like deep joints in the skin, which results in you, for example, looking angry or worried, even though this is not how you feel.
Botox treatment is therefore not necessarily used to make you look younger, but just as much to make the outside harmonize with the inside.
Product and effect of Botox
Botulinum toxin, also called Botox, is an approved drug that is based on protein substances.
The protein substances in Botox prevent the release of signaling substances between nerves and muscles, resulting in muscle relaxation. This is precisely why you can treat mimic wrinkles with Botox, which occur due to muscle contractions.
Botox is naturally excreted from the body after approximately 3-6 months, and the treatment will therefore have to be repeated if the effect is to be maintained.
Popular treatment areas
You will always be thoroughly guided in which treatment will suit you.
There are many treatment options with Botox, but some of the most popular treatments are the following:

Botox treatment of gummy smile/gum smile
Reduction of gummy smile. Here it is treated with Botox. The full result is seen after 14 days, and the effect lasts for approx. 3-6 months. By lowering the upper lip with Botox, the gums will be hidden when you smile.
Botox treatment of the corner of the mouth
Botox treatment of the corners of the mouth is an effective cosmetic procedure that aims to reduce downturned corners of the mouth and give a more youthful appearance. Over time, aging and facial expressions can lead to the corners of the mouth starting to droop, which can give a sad or tired look.
Using botulinum toxin injected into the relevant facial muscles, Botox treatment of the corner of the mouth can relax the muscles and lift the corner of the mouth upwards. This creates a more youthful appearance and can also help reduce the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth area.
The Botox treatment is non-invasive and relatively painless, as small amounts of botulinum toxin are injected with a thin needle. The results are typically temporary and usually last between 3-6 months, after which the treatment can be repeated as needed.
Botox treatment of the chin
Botox treatment of the chin is a cosmetic procedure aimed at improving the appearance and contour of the chin. Using botulinum toxin injected into the chin muscles, the treatment can reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
Botox works by relaxing the muscles in the chin that are responsible for wrinkles and lines. This makes the chin longer and more even. This results in a smoother and more youthful appearance.
Botox treatment of masticatory muscle
Botox treatment of the masticatory muscle is an effective cosmetic procedure that may be relevant for people who want to achieve a more balanced facial shape.
When botulinum toxin is injected into the masticatory muscle, it relaxes, slimming the face and giving it a V shape. The treatment can also reduce tension in the jaw and head. The result is often a more relaxed and harmonious face shape.
Brow lift with Botox
Brow lifting with Botox is an innovative cosmetic treatment that aims to lift and shape the eyebrows for a more youthful and open appearance. Using botulinum toxin strategically injected into certain facial muscles, the treatment can relax the muscles that pull the eyebrows down and create a lifting effect.
Brow lifting with Botox is suitable for people who experience drooping or low-lying eyebrows that can give a tired or worried expression. By lifting the eyebrows, a more open frame is created around the eyes, which can contribute to a fresher appearance.
Brow lifting with Botox is a gentle treatment that involves minimal invasiveness and is generally painless. A thin needle is used to inject small amounts of botulinum toxin. You will find that the effect of the brow lift starts to become visible within a few days after the treatment, and the result can typically last between 3-4 months.
Botox treatment for worry wrinkles
Botulinum toxin is typically used to treat the worry wrinkle. The aim is to reduce the visibility of wrinkles between the eyebrows, also known as “glabella lines” or the worry wrinkle. These vertical lines can give a worried or angry look even when the face is relaxed.
Botox is injected into the relevant facial muscles to relax them and reduce muscle activity. This reduces tension in the area and can smooth out the worry wrinkle, resulting in a more relaxed appearance.

How the treatment is carried out
The Botox treatment will be carried out by a cosmetic nurse in the clinic.
Before the treatment, you will have pictures taken for your records, and your face will be thoroughly washed and disinfected to minimize the risk of infection. The treatment area will then be marked and located.
The treatment itself is carried out by injecting small amounts of Botulinum toxin into the facial muscles with a very thin needle. The injection may be associated with a small amount of discomfort, but is quickly over.
After the treatment
Immediately after the treatment, there may be slight redness and swelling in the injected area, and there is a small risk of small bruises. This can usually be remedied with a little ice on the area.
During the first 24 hours after treatment, it is not recommended to massage/touch the area, as well as engage in vigorous exercise, consume alcohol, or be exposed to direct sunlight and extreme heat/cold. In addition, it is not recommended to use make-up in the treated area for a minimum of 6 hours or exercise for a minimum of 24 hours afterwards.
The effect of the treatment occurs after 4-6 days, but the full effect will only be felt after 14 days.
When the full effect has occurred, we always offer that you can come into the clinic for a check-up, where we can assess together whether the treatment has had the desired effect, or whether there is a need for a “touch up” that will be included in the price.
The result will be natural and most often few will be able to see that you have had a Botox treatment. They will simply notice that you look fresher.
