Botulinum Toxin — Wrinkle Relaxation (Botox / Dysport)

Botulinum toxin works by blocking acetylcholine transmission at the neuromuscular junction, temporarily preventing the treated muscle from contracting. The result for expression wrinkles — dynamic lines created by repeated muscle movement — is that the skin above the relaxed muscle ceases to be mechanically folded with every expression, allowing existing lines to soften and preventing new ones from forming. The effect is temporary: the nerve terminal…

At BEAUTY – plastická chirurgie MUDr. Šorma uses Dysport (botulinum toxin type A) — a European-formulated product with a diffusion profile that makes it particularly effective for larger-area treatment such as the forehead. He administers injections using fine-gauge needles with the patient seated upright; the facial musculature is assessed in motion before injection to identify the exact muscle bellies responsible for the expression lines. Injection…

For hyperhidrosis — excessive sweating of the underarms — the mechanism is identical but the target is the eccrine sweat gland rather than a muscle; a higher dose is distributed across the underarm skin surface through multiple shallow injections. The effect for hyperhidrosis is typically longer-lasting (six to twelve months) compared with wrinkle treatment, as sweat glands regenerate more slowly than motor nerve terminals. Patients are advised to shave…
