Botulinum Toxin (Anti-Wrinkle Injections)

Botulinum toxin treatment at MEDICent softens the dynamic wrinkles of the upper face — horizontal forehead lines, the frown lines between the brows, and crow's feet around the eyes — by relaxing the small muscles whose repeated contraction creases the skin. The clinic applies botulinum toxin A at a transparent 6,000 Kč per 50 I.U. application in a plastic surgery clinic setting, with effects appearing over 3–7 days and lasting around 3–4 months.

Dynamic wrinkles — those produced by muscle movement rather than skin laxity — respond to one treatment better than any other: botulinum toxin. By temporarily reducing the contraction strength of specific small facial muscles, the overlying skin stops being creased thousands of times a day, existing lines soften, and new ones are prevented from etching deeper. **Dosing transparency:** MEDICent prices botulinum toxin per 50 I.U. application (6,000 Kč) — a quantity that typically covers the standard upper-face treatment zones in one session. Pricing by units rather than vague 'zones' means you know exactly what you are paying for. **Treatment areas:** Glabellar (frown) lines between the brows; horizontal forehead lines; crow's feet at the outer eyes. The practitioner maps your individual muscle activity — asking you to frown, raise brows, and smile — and places small injections precisely where your anatomy needs them, preserving natural expression. The goal is a rested face that still moves, not a frozen one. **Timeline:** The injections take minutes with no downtime beyond possible pinpoint marks. The effect begins at day 3–4, is complete by day 10–14, and lasts approximately 3–4 months, after which movement returns gradually. With regular treatment, many patients find intervals lengthen as the wrinkle-forming habit weakens. **Safety:** Botulinum toxin A has decades of medical use at far higher doses than aesthetic treatment requires. In a surgical clinic setting, application is by medically trained staff under plastic surgeon supervision. Temporary side effects (small bruise, mild heaviness) are uncommon and self-limiting.
