Anti-Wrinkle Injections (Botulinum Toxin)

Botulinum toxin injections that soften the dynamic expression lines created by repeated facial movement — horizontal forehead lines, the vertical frown lines between the brows and crow's feet at the outer eyes. At Klinika dr Grażyny Bem the treatment is performed by a physician after assessing how your face moves, so expressions are relaxed rather than frozen. Individual areas or discounted two- and three-area combinations are available, with the exact cost depending on how much product each area needs.

Anti-wrinkle injections use small, carefully placed doses of botulinum toxin to temporarily reduce the activity of the muscles that fold the skin during expression. As those muscles relax over the following days, the overlying skin creases less and existing dynamic lines soften. At this clinic the treatment is carried out by Dr Grażyna Bem, who first assesses your facial movement and agrees which areas to treat — most commonly the forehead, the glabella between the brows and the crow's feet at the corners of the eyes, either singly or in combination. The injections take only a few minutes using a very fine needle, and most people return to normal activities the same day while avoiding heat, lying flat and vigorous exercise for the rest of the day. Results typically begin to appear within a few days and settle over about two weeks, after which movement gradually returns over the following months and a repeat treatment can be planned. Because dosing is individual, the price reflects the number of areas treated and the amount of product required, which the doctor discusses before starting. The treatment is intended for adults who want a refreshed, still-expressive appearance; suitability and any reasons to avoid it are reviewed at a medical consultation, and it is not performed during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
