Botulinum Toxin

Botulinum toxin, commonly known as Botox, is a purified neurotoxin used in small doses to treat various medical and aesthetic conditions. In the aesthetic field, it has become a fundamental ally to combat dynamic wrinkles and achieve a more youthful and relaxed appearance.

How does botulinum toxin work?

Botulinum toxin works by blocking the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscles, causing temporary muscle relaxation. In this way, expression lines caused by repeated contraction of facial muscles are attenuated.

• Eyebrow lift: Provides a more open and youthful appearance.
• Treatment of excessive sweating: Reduces sweating in armpits, hands and feet.
