Anti-Wrinkle Injections (Botulinum Toxin)

Botulinum toxin injections that soften the muscle activity behind dynamic expression lines — frown lines between the brows, horizontal forehead lines and crow's feet at the eyes. At Medycyna Estetyczna Legnica the treatment is performed by a physician after assessing how your face moves, so expression is relaxed rather than frozen. Individual areas are priced separately, and the same approach is used for finer corrections such as a brow lift, bunny lines or downturned mouth corners, as well as jaw clenching.

Anti-wrinkle injections use small, carefully placed doses of botulinum toxin to temporarily ease the contraction of specific facial muscles. When those muscles pull less strongly, the overlying skin folds less and the dynamic lines that form with repeated expression gradually soften over the days that follow. At Medycyna Estetyczna Legnica the treatment starts with a physician assessment of your facial movement to agree which areas to target — most often the glabella between the brows, the forehead and the lateral eye area, with additional fine options including a brow lift, bunny lines on the nose, softening of downturned mouth corners and treatment of neck banding. The injections take roughly ten to fifteen minutes using a very fine needle, and most people need no anaesthetic and return to normal activities the same day, avoiding heat, lying flat and vigorous exercise for the rest of the day. Results begin to appear after a few days and settle by around two weeks, with the effect typically associated with several months of softer lines before muscle movement gradually returns. The same botulinum toxin approach is also offered for jaw clenching and teeth grinding (bruxism) and for excessive underarm or hand sweating. The treatment is intended for adults wanting a refreshed but still expressive look; it is not used during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and your suitability and any contraindications are reviewed beforehand.
