Botulinum Toxin treatments by specialised doctors in Zurich

Aesthetic medicine has experienced a revolution in recent years, with muscle relaxants like Botulinum Toxin A at the forefront of this development. This non-invasive procedure offers a safe and effective way to smooth the appearance of wrinkles, rejuvenate the skin, and boost self-confidence. Additionally, Botulinum Toxin can reliably treat excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) of armpits, hands, and feet, as well as muscular tension conditions like teeth grinding (bruxism) or migraine.

Botulinum Toxin A

It is a naturally occurring protein that reduces the nerve-to-muscle signal transmission. When used in small doses, it relaxes the muscles, thereby reducing wrinkles or relieving muscular tension conditions. It also acts similarly in sweat glands, reducing excessive sweat production.

The Effect of Botulinum Toxin A

The toxin reversibly blocks the local release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contraction, in the target muscle. As a result, the treated muscles relax, the skin smooths out, and sweat glands become less active.

The Treatment

The treatment with Botulinum Toxin A is minimally invasive and painless. Injections with very fine needles are administered into the muscle areas or sweat glands. The treatment duration is usually 15-30 minutes.

After the Treatment

Immediate side effects are generally mild and temporary. These may include redness, swelling, and slight pain at the injection site. Sometimes a small haematoma may become visible. In very rare cases, headaches, nausea, or fatigue may occur.

Due to the gentle procedure, there is no real downtime. Meaning, when you leave the practice, you don’t look like you just had a treatment done. You should avoid makeup and exercise for 24 hours. Additionally, slight rest and cooling on the day of the treatment can further improve well-being.

When is the result of the wrinkle treatment with Botulinum Toxin A visible?

The initial results becomes visible after 5 – 7 days. The optimal result is visible after about 2 – 4 weeks and lasts for 4 – 6 months.
