Wrinkles can be treated with dermal fillers such as hyaluronic acid and botulinum toxin, in addition to various non-invasive procedures such as laser, radiofrequency and ultrasound treatments.

Since laser, radiofrequency and ultrasound procedures can also be used to treat wrinkles, but these are covered in other sections of our website, we will only deal with filling injections here.

Surgery to reduce the strength of the facial muscles responsible for expression lines has become obsolete.

Botulinum toxin is a protein that has been widely used for over 20 years, first in ophthalmology and then in neurology. It works by temporarily weakening the muscles of the face, thereby reducing the appearance of wrinkles.

This procedure has become well known in the aesthetic field for eliminating the signs of ageing on the face. It is important to note that this approval was obtained from the relevant health authorities.

Botulinum toxin has become a popular cosmetic procedure, but it is essential to understand that not all types of wrinkle respond in the same way to this treatment. It is advisable to consult a professional to determine the best approach for your specific case.

How can this treatment make you look younger and more beautiful?

The principle is simple: selective injections are made into the muscles responsible for wrinkles. It is essential that the practitioner has excellent anatomical knowledge to ensure optimal results.

It is not necessary to be fasting on the day of the injections. Women should come without make-up or remove it before the injections. It is advisable not to do any intensive sport for 4 hours after the injections, and not to lie down. You should also avoid massage for the first 24 hours to avoid unwanted diffusion of the product.

Minimising the risk of bruising or bleeding in the treated areas during the 15 days before and after the injections is crucial to limit the risk of the product leaking into other unwanted muscles.

In the 3 days following the injections, it is necessary to contract the treated muscles regularly and vigorously.

Frequency of injections

It is recommended that injections should not take place less than 4 months apart to avoid creating resistance to the product.

Hyaluronic acid 

The range of hyaluronic acid-based wrinkle fillers can be used to treat deep wrinkles, nasolabial folds and lips to increase their volume. The injections can be complemented by laser, radiofrequency or ultrasound procedures to enhance and prolong the results.

During the consultation, the specialist practitioner will guide you towards the most suitable treatment, combining one or more complementary techniques to provide the best solution for each patient, depending on their skin type and preferences.
