Anti-Wrinkle Injections (Botulinum Toxin)

Botulinum toxin injections that relax the muscles behind dynamic expression lines — frown lines between the brows, horizontal forehead creases and crow's feet at the corners of the eyes. At the clinic of dr Katarzyna Wojtarowicz the treatment is performed by a physician after assessing how your face moves, so expression is softened rather than frozen. Single areas or discounted two- and three-area combinations are available, with the aim of a refreshed, still-natural look.

Anti-wrinkle injections use small, precisely placed doses of botulinum toxin to temporarily reduce how strongly selected facial muscles contract. When those muscles work less forcefully, the overlying skin creases less and existing dynamic lines tend to soften over the following days. At the clinic the treatment begins with a physician assessment of your facial movement and a discussion of which areas to treat — most commonly the glabella (frown lines), the forehead and the lateral eye area. The injections take around ten to fifteen minutes using a very fine needle, and most patients need no anaesthetic and return to normal activities the same day, avoiding heat, lying flat and vigorous exercise for the rest of that day. Effects usually begin to appear after three to seven days and settle by about two weeks, and are commonly associated with a duration of three to four months before muscle movement gradually returns. Pricing is tiered by the number of areas treated, with discounts for two or three areas. The approach is suited to adults who want to ease frown, forehead or eye lines while keeping a natural, expressive face; it is not performed during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and the doctor reviews your suitability and any contraindications beforehand. Follow-up is offered, and patients are given direct contact with the doctor after treatment.
