What it is
It consists of injecting the right dose of a medicine that reduces the contraction of the muscles responsible for these lines. The muscles relax, but the face keeps its expressiveness. Applied in the right way and in the right amount, it gives a relaxed look and avoids an angry or sad expression.
At Mesomedic we always use high-end products, and we have enough variety to choose the right one for each area of the face. That choice largely decides the result.
Who it is for
It is suitable for the lines that appear over the years from the constant movement of the facial muscles, especially in the upper third of the face:
- Forehead.
- Between the eyebrows.
- Around the eyes (the orbicular area, or crow’s feet).
It also works as a preventive treatment, because relaxing the muscles stops new lines from forming in these areas.
Other uses
- Hyperhidrosis: excessive sweating that occurs spontaneously, without being caused by heat or by physical or emotional stress. It can be treated on the underarms, the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet. The injections are given with very fine needles and block the activity of the sweat glands, reducing sweat production in the treated areas.
- Bruxism.
The session
It is a minimally invasive treatment: small injections are given with a fine needle and no anaesthesia is needed. The session takes about 20 minutes.
Because the results are temporary, two to three sessions a year are recommended, in any season.
At Mesomedic we always schedule a check-up 15 days later to assess the result and make a touch-up if needed.
Results
The effects can be seen a few days after treatment and last between four and six months. In expert hands, the result is very natural and does not change your facial expression.
Benefits
- Relaxes the muscles whose movement causes expression lines.
- Helps prevent new lines from forming.
- Natural, temporary results.
