In the neurotoxic protein wrinkle treatment, a very small amount of the preparation is injected into the relevant muscle using the finest needles. The treatment itself only takes a few minutes, is relatively painless and can also be combined with other wrinkle treatment methods (e.g. hyaluronic acid, autologous fat, etc.). The effect only sets in after a few days, as the active ingredient must first attach itself to the muscle receptors in order to prevent the muscle from actively contracting. After a few days, the success of the treatment becomes apparent: the skin becomes smoother, smaller wrinkles disappear completely, larger wrinkles appear softer, and the face appears noticeably more relaxed.

The domain of neurotoxic protein wrinkle treatment is the so-called dynamic wrinkles - that is, all those wrinkles that arise due to muscle contraction, because the muscles are connected to the skin above them by tiny bands and the skin wrinkles when the muscles move. The older we get, the more noticeable and deeper these wrinkles become. Typically, we find dynamic wrinkles mainly in the upper half of the face, for example the transverse forehead wrinkles (thinker's forehead), the frown lines (glabellar lines), the crow's feet (periorbital wrinkles) and the small nasal wrinkles (bunny lines). But chin wrinkles, a drooping corner of the mouth and the small perioral wrinkles (smoker's lines around the mouth) can also be treated well.

The effect of the treatment begins after a few days and usually lasts for about 5 to 6 months. Since the effect diminishes little by little, it is only after this time that full mobility in the muscles is restored.

Large retrospective studies showed that patient satisfaction was 98% over a treatment cycle of 6.5 months. This means that the treatment usually needs to be repeated every 6 months to achieve a lasting result. The question is often asked whether wrinkles will return "worse than before" after treatment and whether one could become "addicted". This is not the case and is an unfounded concern.

In the right hands, treatment with neurotoxic protein preparations is considered by experienced doctors to be a virtually risk-free procedure. Please note that the preparation is a medication and may only be administered by doctors. Injections by beauticians, alternative practitioners or related professions are - legally speaking - intentional bodily harm and therefore a criminal offense. Therefore, the application should only be carried out by experienced doctors in order to prevent the rare but possible risks such as temporary paralysis of neighboring muscle groups (resulting in drooping eyelids, crooked eyebrows, drooping lips, speech and swallowing disorders).

Our goal is a holistic treatment to optimize your appearance. To do this, we will respond to your individual wishes and ideas and work with you to develop a treatment plan. The initial consultation will therefore take at least 30 minutes. Since treatment strategies have changed enormously in recent years, the protein preparation now serves as an accentuation in our hands.

The costs vary from individual to individual and depend on the number of active ingredients required. Prices start at around €150.00. Since we often combine the treatment with other products and procedures (such as fillers, hyaluronic acid, medical needling, radio frequency therapy) to achieve optimal results, we will provide you with a detailed cost estimate during the initial consultation. Our prices always include the sales tax required for aesthetic procedures.
