Botulinum toxin (Botox) is a popular treatment for frown lines.
It works by temporarily inhibiting facial muscle contractions, allowing for the treatment and prevention of new wrinkles on the forehead, around the eyes, and between the eyebrows.
Botulinum toxin is used in our clinic to treat and prevent expression lines because it is a safe procedure that targets the source of the problem. This aids in the reduction of wrinkles and frown lines, giving the skin a more natural and rejuvenated appearance.
The treatment for expression lines produces quick results, and it is possible to notice a significant improvement in the skin within a few days. It is recommended to undergo the procedure every 4 to 6 months for the best results.
In our clinic, we also use hyaluronic acid dermal fillers or MD Codes to treat gravitational wrinkles. This helps to restore the patient’s facial volume by reducing wrinkles and expression lines around the chin, cheekbone, and mouth.

The natural aging process and sun exposure without the use of sunscreen are the primary causes of wrinkles on the face.
As people get older, it is unavoidable that they will develop wrinkles on their face.

Our brains use the neurotransmitter acetylcholine to send electrical signals to our muscles, inducing them to contract and move. These treatments use botulinum toxin, which prevents nerve cells from releasing acetylcholine, which causes muscle contraction.
Expression lines such as forehead lines, crow’s feet, and frown/scowl lines are softened, and the nose tip is lifted, by selectively interfering with muscle contraction capacity. Often, these lines are nearly invisible after a week.
Treatments using dermal fillers, on the other hand, are used to treat static wrinkles that are associated with daily life factors such as work, sun exposure, and sleep quality.
As natural skin elements, such as hyaluronic acid, decrease over time, the structure and elasticity of the skin deteriorate, resulting in the appearance of wrinkles.
