How often should I repeat it?

The clinic recommends repeating Skin Botox every 2 to 3 months to keep the result.

Can the neck be treated?

Yes. Neck Skin Botox is offered as an add-on to wrinkle filler treatment, or together with XERF in the XERF Neck Wrinkle Package.

What should I avoid afterwards?

Avoid rubbing the treated area, and skip deep facial massage for one month.

Does it work on deep wrinkles?

If a line stays visible even when you stretch the skin with a finger, or if the wrinkle is long-standing and deeply set, it is hard to improve with Botox alone. In that case, we recommend combining it with filler, thread lifting, radiofrequency treatment, or similar treatments.

When will I see results?

Results begin to appear gradually 2 to 3 days after treatment, and you can expect smoother fine lines and firmer skin within 1 to 2 weeks on average.

What is the difference between Skin Botox and Wrinkle Botox?

Wrinkle Botox is injected into specific spots to soften wrinkles in those areas. Skin Botox is injected across the superficial layer of the skin at closer spacing, improving not only fine lines but also skin tone and overall skin elasticity.

Skin BotoxTreatment overview

Skin Botox is also called DermoToxin, a name that combines "Dermo," meaning skin, and "Toxin," from botulinum toxin. Unlike traditional Botox, it is injected carefully into the thin upper layers of the skin, at several depths, to improve fine lines. It may also help improve skin elasticity and skin tone.
It can be used across the entire face, on the forehead, between the eyebrows (glabella) and along the nasolabial folds, and for dark circles, pores and skin texture. It softens wrinkles naturally. Another advantage is that your facial expressions still look natural.
