Botox 1 Area

Botulinum toxin injection targeting a single facial area — forehead lines, glabellar frown lines, or lateral crow's feet — to temporarily relax the underlying muscle and smooth dynamic wrinkles. Clinically administered in 20 minutes.

Botulinum toxin type A (commonly known as Botox) works by blocking neuromuscular transmission at the targeted injection site, preventing the muscle from contracting fully in response to nerve signals. This controlled muscle relaxation softens the dynamic wrinkles that form when muscles repeatedly contract — the horizontal creases across the forehead when you raise your brows, the vertical frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar complex), and the radiating fine lines at the outer corners of the eyes (crow's feet). The single-area protocol at Perfect Skin Berlin treats one of these three zones per session. During the procedure, a clinician maps the injection points based on your individual muscle anatomy — the volume, distribution, and strength of the target muscle vary considerably between patients, particularly in the forehead. Precise placement preserves natural movement while reducing the crease depth. Most patients receive 10–20 units depending on the muscle mass being treated. The injections are delivered with a very fine needle; most patients describe a mild pinching sensation that subsides within seconds. Onset of effect begins within 3–5 days, with the full result visible by day 14. The treated muscle gradually regains function over 3–6 months as the neuromuscular junction regenerates. Regular maintenance at this interval can reduce the baseline depth of static wrinkles over time, as the muscle loses some of its hyperactivity with repeated cycles of relaxation. The 20-minute appointment includes a pre-treatment consultation to review medical history (contraindications include pregnancy, myasthenia gravis, current anticoagulant therapy) and a brief post-care briefing covering activity restrictions for the first 4 hours — no exercise, no lying flat, and no pressure on the treated area.
