Our expressions are a key feature of our presence and our countenance. However, facial wrinkles – often called laugh lines or expression wrinkles – can develop over the years. They are created by the continuous movements of our facial muscles, such as when we laugh, reflect deeply or get angry. These lines are particularly common in parts of the face that we often move or tense.

Both an individual’s genetic disposition and other individual factors can play a role in how facial wrinkles develop. The outcome, though, is the same in both cases: as more wrinkles form, the face begins to appear aged and worn-down. However, with the help of Botox, we can successfully treat facial wrinkles. As muscle activity is inhibited, the wrinkle creation process slows and existing expression lines appear visibly smoothed.

Wrinkle treatments with Botox are suitable for anyone hoping to return a fresh, youthful appearance to their face in a gentle procedure. At Central Aesthetics, we’d be happy to help you – and always work to ensure our procedures are gentle and performed professionally.

Frequently asked questions on wrinkle treatment with Botox

Here at Central Aesthetics, we provide a range of different wrinkle treatments, each offering its own benefits. Botox treatment is particularly well suited to smoothing facial wrinkles formed as a result of facial muscle activity: Botox reduces such muscular movements and, in doing so, also reduces formation of wrinkles. No other medication achieves the same muscle-calming effect.

Other methods can also be considered to reduce the appearance of more prominent wrinkles. These could include, for example, tautening the skin using hyaluronic acid injections. Here at Central Aesthetics, we’d be happy to consult you personally on how you can best achieve your desired results.

On average, the results of a Botox wrinkle treatment last for around 4–6 months. Further treatments can then be carried out if desired and as required. Of course, precisely how long a treatment lasts varies from one patient to the next, as everyone reacts to the injected compounds differently. Some patients report that the effects fade after only a few weeks; on the other hand, some patients benefit from the results for more than six months and, in some cases, even over a year.

After a wrinkle treatment with Botox, you can get back to your social commitments straight away. We inject botulinum toxin type A using very fine cannulas, meaning the procedure barely creates any bruising or swelling at all. If a puncture bruise does form around the entry point, it can easily be hidden with make-up.

At Central Aesthetics, we place high importance on careful application of precise doses of the botulinum toxin. This allows us to achieve attractive results and avoid inhibiting or negatively impacting your natural expressions. In Botox treatments, our aim is to reduce and smoothen wrinkles while retaining natural facial features and movements.

Wrinkle treatments with Botox are generally low-risk procedures. However, if the dose applied to sensitive areas of the body is too high, the muscles can be weakened to an undesirable extent. That said, the risk of such outcomes is excluded when the procedure is performed by an experienced doctor using the correct doses. As the tautening effect does fade after a few months, there’s also no danger of long-lasting or permanent overcorrection.

Botox treatments don’t pose any further risks to generally healthy patients. Nevertheless, caution is advised if you suffer from a muscular condition: in this case, we usually would not carry out Botox treatments. Here at Central Aesthetics, we would be happy to advise you on alternative, more suitable wrinkle treatments you could consider if this is the case.

Wrinkle treatments with hyaluronic acid are particularly well suited to affording slackened areas of the skin new freshness and volume. In this case, the hyaluronic acid serves as a filler material to bolster the thin or lapsed tissue. The treatment allows us to reduce the appearance of even the most prominent wrinkles.

Botox is a particularly effective treatment for facial wrinkles, also known as laugh lines or expression wrinkles. Examples of such wrinkles include crow’s feet, lower eyelid wrinkles, frown lines and horizontal brow lines. They come about as a result of constant activity and tension of the facial muscles. The botulinum toxin temporarily weakens the facial muscles, visibly smoothing out facial wrinkles.
