Who is this treatment for?
Botulinum toxin injections are for people with marked or early expression lines.
The treatment often concerns the forehead, the glabellar lines, and the crow’s feet.
It can be considered for correction or prevention, sometimes starting in adulthood.
Skin quality does not directly influence the indication, as the action targets the muscle, not the dermis.
The treatment is not recommended in cases of pregnancy, breastfeeding, known neuromuscular disease, or active local infection.
Session Procedure
The session begins with a dynamic analysis of the face, at rest and in motion.
The areas to be treated are identified according to your natural expression and your expectations.
Botulinum toxin is injected using a very fine needle, without incision.
The session lasts an average of 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the number of areas treated.
The procedure generally requires no anesthesia, with discomfort remaining moderate and temporary.
Results
The first effects appear between the third and fifth day after injection.
The result becomes optimal around ten to fifteen days.
Expression lines are softened, the face appears more relaxed, without stiffness.
The average duration of the result varies from 4 to 6 months, depending on the areas and muscle reactivity.
The effects remain reversible and progressive, allowing for adjustments in subsequent sessions.
Aftercare and Recommendations
Slight redness, minor swelling, or localized bruising may appear at the injection sites.
These reactions generally disappear within a few hours to a few days.
It is recommended to avoid intensive sports, heat, and massaging the treated areas for 24 hours.
Lying down should be avoided during the first few hours following the session.
Usual activities can be resumed immediately after the treatment.
Pricing
The price of botulinum toxin injections depends on the areas treated and the quantity of product needed.

A personalized quote is systematically provided during the preliminary consultation.
The treatment is not covered by health insurance.
