Botulinum Toxin Injections

Botulinum toxin is a purified neurotoxin protein that transiently blocks the release of acetylcholine at the motor end-plate, preventing the target muscle from contracting. When the mimic muscles responsible for specific expression lines are relaxed, the overlying skin is no longer repeatedly folded, and dynamic lines fade. Over successive treatment cycles, the skin's collagen infrastructure in the treated zone gradually improves, and lines that were once…

At this clinic, botulinum toxin injections are performed by MUDr. Martin Kloud himself — a plastic surgeon, not a nurse or aesthetician. His surgical background means dosing and placement decisions are grounded in a thorough anatomical knowledge of the facial musculature and an understanding of how individual muscle anatomy varies between patients. The treatment avoids both under-treatment (insufficient relaxation) and over-treatment (the frozen or…

Common treatment areas include: forehead horizontal lines (frontalis muscle); glabellar frown lines — the '11 lines' between the brows (corrugator and procerus); crow's feet around the outer corners of the eyes (orbicularis oculi); nasal bunny lines; and perioral lines. Platysmal banding and décolletage lines are also addressable for patients bothered by neck and chest ageing.
