Botulinum Toxin (Dysport)

Botulinum toxin injections using the Dysport brand administered by MUDr. Vojtková temporarily relax the muscles responsible for dynamic facial lines — the wrinkles that form from smiling, squinting, and frowning. The treatment requires no preparatory test, can be performed on the same day as consultation, and takes less than 30 minutes in the outpatient setting at Štefánikova 777/27, Ústí nad Labem. Results develop over approximately one week and last three to nine months — typically four to six — with duration extending further after repeated sessions. The clinic also applies botulinum toxin for hyperhidrosis, stopping excessive sweating at the armpits, palms, or feet.

Botulinum toxin is a purified protein derived from Clostridium botulinum that temporarily interrupts the nerve-to-muscle signal in the injected area. When the targeted muscle can no longer contract fully, the overlying skin smooths out and the dynamic wrinkle softens. MUDr. Vojtková uses Dysport — a well-established botulinum toxin type A product with a track record spanning three decades of clinical use — for all neurotoxin treatments at Medest. The treatment is suitable for men and women with expression lines caused by repeated muscle movement: horizontal lines across the forehead, vertical frown lines between the eyebrows (the glabellar complex), crow's feet at the outer corners of the eyes, and neck bands. A less commonly known application is hyperhidrosis: when injected into the sweat glands of the armpits, palms, or feet, botulinum toxin blocks the chemical signal that triggers sweating, typically achieving a 70–90 percent reduction in perspiration that lasts six to twelve months. The procedure itself takes under 30 minutes. MUDr. Vojtková assesses facial anatomy and muscle strength before selecting injection points and units — the price reflects the number of units used, which varies by area and muscle mass. A fine-gauge needle is used; most patients experience only a mild pinch, and a topical numbing cream can be applied on request. No allergy test or skin test is required beforehand, and the appointment can be booked and performed on the same day. After treatment, patients are advised to avoid lying face-down or bending significantly forward for several hours to allow the product to settle. Visible results develop within three to seven days as the muscle gradually relaxes. The first session typically lasts four to six months; with regular repeat appointments spaced six months apart, the treated muscles atrophy progressively and the effect can last considerably longer. The clinic's FAQ confirms the treatment is safe for male patients and addresses hyperhidrosis specifically as a medical indication alongside aesthetic uses.
