Botulinum Toxin — Expression Wrinkle Treatment

Botulinum toxin at FaceExpert is administered by MUDr. Zuzana Macko and her team using atraumatic needles for near-painless delivery. The treatment temporarily blocks neuromuscular transmission in targeted facial muscles, smoothing expression lines that form through repeated movement. Results appear within 3–14 days and last approximately 4–6 months. FaceExpert treats the full spectrum of areas: forehead, glabella, crow's feet, masseter (jaw slimming), Nefertiti lifting of the neck, gummy smile correction, underarm hyperhidrosis, palms, soles, and migraine treatment protocols. Combination-area pricing offers meaningful savings versus single-area rates. MUDr. Macko's international training credentials — including TEOXANE and Merz Aesthetics — ensure consistently refined outcomes, and the boutique Josefov setting makes this a sought-after destination for patients seeking an elevated treatment experience in central Prague.

Botulinum toxin injections at FaceExpert are delivered within a medically supervised aesthetic environment in Prague's historic Josefov quarter, by a team led by MUDr. Zuzana Macko — founder of the clinic and an internationally accredited trainer for TEOXANE and Merz Aesthetics. Her dual role as both practitioner and physician educator positions FaceExpert's technique standards at the top tier of the Czech aesthetic medicine landscape. Botulinum toxin (available under commercial formulations such as Botox, Bocouture, and Azzalure) is a highly purified protein that, when injected in precise micro-doses into a target muscle, blocks acetylcholine release at the neuromuscular junction. The muscle relaxes and the overlying expression line softens or disappears entirely. Because the toxin is metabolised naturally over 4–6 months, the effect is reversible and the dose can be adjusted at each session to reflect changing patient preferences. **Areas treated at FaceExpert and listed prices:** - Forehead horizontal lines: 4,500 Kč - Glabella (frown lines / '11s'): 4,500 Kč - Crow's feet (lateral orbital lines): 5,500 Kč - 2-area package (e.g. forehead + glabella): 7,900 Kč - 3-area package (upper face combined): 9,900 Kč - Small area / single muscle correction: 3,500 Kč - Baby Botulinum Toxin (preventive micro-dose, 1 area): 2,900 Kč - Nefertiti Lifting (neck platysma bands): 6,900 Kč - Masseter muscle — jaw slimming and bruxism: 8,900 Kč - Underarm hyperhidrosis: 12,900 Kč - Palm hyperhidrosis: 9,900 Kč - Sole hyperhidrosis: 9,900 Kč - Migraine Light protocol: 9,900 Kč - Migraine Full protocol (Botox Therapy): 11,900 Kč **Baby Botulinum Toxin** is a preventive micro-dose protocol for younger patients (typically 25–35) who want to slow the formation of expression lines before they become established at rest. Smaller quantities are used to partially — rather than fully — relax the target muscle, preserving natural facial dynamics while reducing repetitive crease formation. **Nefertiti Lifting** uses botulinum toxin injected along the jawline and into the platysmal bands of the neck to create a mild lifting effect on the lower face by releasing the downward pull of the platysma muscle. The result is a more defined jawline and smoother neck appearance without surgical intervention. **Hyperhidrosis treatment** applies botulinum toxin intradermally across the axillary vault (underarm), palm, or sole surface to block sweat gland innervation. Clinical studies show an 80–90% reduction in sweat production lasting 6–12 months per session. **Procedure at FaceExpert:** The treatment area is cleansed and marked. Atraumatic ultra-fine needles are used for injection — the clinic's emphasis on painless delivery distinguishes it from practices using standard gauge needles. Patients describe the sensation as minimal. Sessions take 15–20 minutes. No anaesthesia cream is required for most patients, although it can be arranged. Results appear gradually over 3–14 days. **Post-treatment guidance:** Remain upright for 4–6 hours post-injection. Avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, and facial massages for 48 hours. Avoid rubbing the treated area. Full results are assessed at 2 weeks — a touch-up appointment can be arranged if asymmetry is noted at this stage. **Contraindications:** Neuromuscular junction diseases (myasthenia gravis), allergy to botulinum toxin components, active infection at the injection site, pregnancy, and breastfeeding. A clinical assessment is completed before the first session.
