Hyaluronic acid-based fillers are preferred in the treatment of deep wrinkles. Thus, botulinum toxin is used to treat dynamic wrinkles, whereas dermal fillers are used for static wrinkles and face shaping. Although their effect and application areas are completely different, botulinum toxin and hyaluronic acid fillers are often combined in non-surgical aesthetic applications. The most common site of botulinum toxin is the forehead, area around the eyes (goose feet), eyebrows, and nose side walls (bunny lines). In appropriate patients, botulinum toxin can be used over the lip and in the neck to reduce wrinkles. Non-surgical eyebrow-shaping, gummy smile treatment (to reduce gingival display), sweating treatment, masseter muscle relaxation (to reduce teeth grinding and clenching), and mouth corner releasing (smiling face botulinum toxin) are also other procedures that can be done with botulinum toxin. US FDA approved brands? usage (such as Dysport, Botox) is recommended.

NEW GENERATION MICROBOTULINUM TOXIN (MEZOBOTULINUM TOXIN)

The new generation microbotulinum toxin (modified microbotulinum toxin - modified mesobotulinum toxin) technique, which is more sensitive than normal botulinum toxin applications, is highly preferred in appropriate patients. This technique offers more detailed study in more areas. Some touches, as opposed to classical botulinum toxin (classic botulinum toxin is made into the muscle) are made into the skin like microbotulinum toxin (mesobotulinum toxin); some touches are made into the muscle similar to classic botulinum toxin application. In this way, more natural, wrinkle-free, and fresh skin is obtained.

 AFTER THE EFFECT OF BOTULINUM TOXIN WEARS OUT, IF I DO NOT MAKE IT AGAIN, CAN IT BE WORSE?

If you do not repeat Botulinum toxin application after its effect wears off, nothing will worsen. Botulinum toxin has no such effect.

IS IT PROPER TO USE WRINKLE-REDUCING CREAM INSTEAD OF BOTULINUM TOXIN APPLICATION?

Treating wrinkles with same results by using cream instead of botulinum toxin injection is impossible. The creams moisturize, nourish, protect the skin from the sun, and increase collagen synthesis against wrinkles by providing partial benefit. Using a good moisturizer and sunscreen for your skin type is one of the most important points in your personal care and anti-aging treatment. However, the effect of these cosmetic products is not comparable to, or an alternative to, botulinum toxin.
