Suitable if...

  • You want to soothe mimic lines (furrow lines/glabellar lines, forehead wrinkles, crow's feet).

  • A natural, not “static” result is desired.

  • You prefer a short, planned measure with regular refreshment.

  • Abstinence from smoking, sun protection, and realistic expectations are present.

Note: For volume/structure topics (e.g., deep grooves, upper lip wrinkles), hyaluron/autologous fat or skin treatments are a more sensible addition.

Methods & Variants

  • Classic Areas

    Glabella (Frown Line), Forehead, Crow's Feet – Dosage and points depend on musculature and desired dynamics.

  • Fine Indications (selective)

    Brow Positioning, Bunny Lines, Lip Flip, Chin Dimpling, Masseter Relaxation (Teeth Grinding, Jaw Clenching) – only with appropriate indication.

  • “Baby Botox”/Microdosing

    Very fine doses for subtle smoothing while maximizing facial expressions.

Which variant is suitable will be decided based on anatomy, muscle activity, and desired goals – focus: natural & proportional.

Process – Step by Step

Consultation

We discuss wishes and concerns, analyze facial patterns and skin, define treatment areas/target intensity, and clarify possibilities & limitations – calmly and transparently.

Preparation

Photo documentation, marking the points while sitting, brief skin disinfection; if desired, cooling/anesthetic cream. Instructions for behavior immediately after the treatment.

Treatment/Operation

Targeted injections into the facial muscles with fine needles. Dosage is individual and tailored, treatment lasts a few minutes. No bandage needed; brief cooling possible.

First Aftercare

On the day of treatment no massage, no sauna/intense sports, keep head upright for a few hours. Follow-up/fine-tuning after 10–14 days – there we will check the effect and balance together.

Healing process

After 24–48 hours, the first effects appear; small injection marks fade quickly.

After 10–14 days, the full effect is achieved; fine-tuning is done if necessary.

After 3–5 months, the effect diminishes gradually – a touch-up is then advisable.

Risks & Safety

Short-term redness, small bruises, a feeling of pressure, or headache may occur – mostly mild and temporary. In case of overdosage or improper diffusion, temporary asymmetries are possible (e.g., eyebrow positioning, drooping of the eyelids/"ptosis" during glabella treatment); through precise point selection, adjusted dosage, and the control session after 10–14 days, we reduce this risk.

It is important to have no manipulation of the areas on the treatment day, exercise/heat pause for 24 hours, and sun protection. During pregnancy/breastfeeding, no treatment will be given. If you experience warning signs or unusual effects, please contact us immediately – you have a clear contact way.

Combinations & Alternatives (optional)

  • Hyaluron-Filler for volume/structure issues (e.g., tear trough, marionette lines)

  • Skin Treatments (peels/laser/medical skincare) for surface/texture

  • Brow lift/eyelid surgery/Facelift for anatomical depressions (planned separately)
