Wrinkle treatment by injection of botulinum toxin
Our mimicry leaves its mark over the years. The frequent contraction of the facial muscles and gravity ensure that your wrinkles remain in your skin even in a relaxed state and thus determine your expression. A wrinkle treatment is a quick, safe and extremely efficient solution for this.
INJECTIONS AGAINST WRINKLES
A muscle relaxant is a safe and successful remedy, with more than 20 years of experience. Botulinum toxin is one of the most popular facial rejuvenation treatments. The product is administered with a fine needle directly into the muscle to be treated. The product paralyzes the muscles and thus reduces the overactivity of the subcutaneous mimic muscles. The facial muscles will relax locally and the wrinkles will disappear. This treatment is extremely suitable for the treatment of crow's feet, frown and forehead wrinkles. The wrinkle treatment does not require anesthesia and can be performed during a regular consultation. You can resume your activities immediately after the procedure. The effect of a wrinkle treatment appears after three to five days and lasts about six months. If desired, you can then be treated again without any problems.

What are Fillers and what is Botox
FILLERS:
In our clinic we use fillers based on hyaluronic acid to naturally fill deeper wrinkles, enlarge lips, lift cheekbones, improve sunken temples and facial contours.
Hyaluronic acid is a substance that is naturally present in our skin and keeps our skin supple and resilient. Our body naturally produces hyaluronic acid over and over again, but with age this process slows down, causing a decrease in volume, your skin to become slack and wrinkles to appear.
Thanks to injections based on hyaluronic acid, this volume deficiency can be corrected. For example, you can use fillers to fill in thinking wrinkles, the nasolabial fold and lips. The effect of a filler lasts 8 to 12 months. Over time, our body will also break down the injected filler. This process varies from person to person and also from the treated area.
A filler is applied during the treatment with a fine needle. Thanks to the anesthetic incorporated in the product, the injections are barely noticeable. A numbing cream is applied prior to a lip augmentation. The result of a filler treatment is immediately visible. The treated area may be extra swollen during the first three days due to the anesthetic product.
​
BOTOX:
Botox is injected with a very thin needle into the muscles that cause wrinkles or lines in your face.
Botulinum toxin injectables temporarily relax your muscles, so you notice less wrinkles and lines when you tense your facial muscles. Botox is administered, among other things, in the frown line, crow's feet and forehead wrinkles and can also help with sweating, migraine, gummy smile, drooping corners of the mouth, bunny lines and teeth grinding (bruxism). mediocre
TREATING GUMMY SMILE WITH BOTOX:
Do you have the impression that everyone sees your gums when you smile? This phenomenon is called a gummy smile and is innate. Because your muscles that pull up your upper lip when you laugh work a little too hard, your gums will become visible. This problem can be partly solved with a temporary muscle relaxant with botulinum toxin. After the treatment you can go through life with a beautiful and natural smile, without changing your own facial expression. Keep in mind that you have to be patient for 2 to 10 days before you can fully enjoy the result! After about 4 months the result has worked out
​
TREATING TEETH GRISSING WITH BOTOX:
Teeth grinding is a common dental problem, which causes wear and tear on the teeth. Teeth grinding (or bruxism) can be effectively reduced by Botox injections, because botulinum toxin reduces the effect of the chewing muscle. The treatment will also soften the appearance of your face, because the chewing muscles will be less visible
​
TREATING TENSION HEADACHE AND MIGRAINE WITH BOTOX:
Some people are constantly burdened with headaches, often this is a tension headache. Studies have shown that some people benefit from botulinum toxin injections. However, it is difficult to determine in advance which target group will benefit from Botox injections against tension headaches. Patients with migraine sometimes find relief thanks to Botox treatments. After a first test treatment, you can assess whether this Botox treatment offers you some relief.
​
TREATING BUNNY LINES WITH BOTOX:
Bunny lines are wrinkles high next to your nose, which you can see best when you smile broadly. As the years go by, your wrinkles will become more and more visible. Your skin loses its power to fade the lines in rest. The bunny lines will therefore remain visible in a relaxed state, which can cause you to find it disturbing. Injections of botulinum toxin will fade these lines
​
TREATING drooping corners of the mouth / puppet lines with BOTOX:
Do people often have the impression that you are grumpy, when this is not the case at all? Is your mouth not smiling? Drooping corners of the mouth or marionette lines often make you look less cheerful and older. We can treat drooping corners of the mouth with temporary muscle relaxants, based on botulinum toxin. The muscle that pulls down the corner of your mouth will temporarily contract less violently, which will make you look happier and fresher!
​
MEASURES AFTER THE TREATMENT WITH BOTULIN TOXIN INJECTIONS:
After the treatment, it is still possible to contract the muscles in the treated area. However, we do not recommend massaging the treated area during the first 4 hours after the injection. You should avoid the following things: hairdresser, facial treatment, massage, wearing a helmet and pressing glasses. You can immediately resume your professional and social activities
BOTOX VS FILLERS
Mesobotox and Microbotox treatments
HOW DOES MESO-BOTOX DIFFER FROM THE CLASSIC BOTOX INJECTIONS?
Where Botox is injected directly into the facial muscles, Meso Botox will be administered just under the skin, where sweat and sebaceous glands are located.
​A treatment with Meso Botox will produce a very natural result, because the product is applied into the skin itself, where the blood vessels, sebaceous glands and loose muscle tissue are also located.If Botox is used excessively, this can result in a frozen look, as is often seen in media figures.
​
​MESO BOTOX IS AN ALTERNATIVE FORM OF BOTOX
​A diluted form of Botox is used. This product is injected through micro-needles. You will also often find this technique under the term Micro Botox.
​
​IS A TREATMENT WITH MESO BOTOX PAINFUL?
​The needles with which Meso Botox is injected are super fine, so that the pain will be very limited. Applying an anesthetic cream beforehand is not recommended
​Thanks to Meso Botox, your skin condition will be improved.
​
WHAT RESULT CAN MESO BOTOX PROVIDE?
Just under the skin are facial muscles, sweat and sebaceous glands, which can be improved as follows:
• Reduce static wrinkles and dents

•Your skin will become smoother and shine less

Botulinum toxin injections for excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis)
Scattered over your skin you will find sweat glands that produce sweat. Sweat production helps to regulate your body's temperature. If the temperature is too high, you will sweat. Then you evaporate water, so that your skin cools and your temperature drops.
With excessive sweating or hyperhidrosis, there is an overproduction of sweat, without this being necessary for your temperature regulation. If you produce more than 10 grams of sweat in one armpit in 5 minutes, this is regarded as excessive sweating.
The problem of excessive sweating in the palms of the hands, soles of the feet and armpits often occurs from childhood. Hyperhidrosis can also only manifest itself later in life, often due to underlying conditions, such as diabetes, sleep apnea or an overactive thyroid gland.
​
Hyperhidrosis affects almost one person in a hundred. It is a phenomenon that is usually experienced as very unpleasant.
Of course you can take some measures yourself to tackle your sweating problem, just think of wearing cotton clothing, changing clothes regularly, using sprays or gels and washing yourself regularly.
​
If these remedies do not help, a treatment with injections of Botox can provide a fairly simple solution to this discomfort.
​
In this intervention, a small dose of Botox (botulinum toxin) is injected into the armpits. Botulinum toxin is a protein that causes your sweat glands to produce less moisture. You will notice improvement after one to three days.
​
Scientific studies have shown that sweating already decreases by 87% one week after the Botox injection. The result is optimal after two weeks and lasts an average of six to nine months. After this period, the treatment with Botox can be repeated.
Some qualitative products are allowed at Izmier Medical Esthetic Travel
There are 3 major brands of botulinum toxin, namely Botox®, Bocouture® and Dysport®. Only these products are recognized and safe for use.
In addition to these 3 big names, there are of course also many cheaper variants on the market. The question with these cheap versions is of course whether they are safe. It is also well known that these side brands are less concentrated and therefore less effective as a wrinkle treatment.
