Indications
What this treatment is suited for
- A pronounced vertical line between the brows
- A stern or tense-looking expression
- A wish for preventive treatment
Mechanism
How the treatment works
Targeted relaxation of the corrugator supercilii and procerus muscles eases tension between the brows, visibly smoothing the vertical lines.
Procedure
The treatment procedure
Following analysis of individual muscle activity, injections are placed at several defined points between and above the brows. The procedure takes approximately 30 minutes.
Aftercare
After the treatment
Remain upright for several hours, no massage of the area, no sports for 24 hours and no sauna for 72 hours.
Risks and side effects
Mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites is possible. Rarely, temporary eyelid drooping.
Contraindications
Not suitable for certain neuromuscular disorders, during pregnancy and breastfeeding, or in the presence of infections in the treatment area.
Questions about the treatment
Frequently asked questions
Will the treatment change my expression?
Properly placed, your gaze appears more relaxed and open — your natural brow shape is preserved.
Does the treatment hurt?
We work with very fine needles at only a few points. Most people feel a brief prick; anaesthesia is usually not needed.
Can I go straight back to work?
Yes. Small red marks at the injection points fade quickly. On the day of treatment, please stay upright for a few hours and do not massage the forehead. Avoid sports for 24 hours and sauna for 72 hours.
What if the result is uneven?
The full result shows after about two weeks, when we see you for a follow-up. If one side looks stronger than the other, a small top-up usually evens it out. The follow-up and any top-up are included in the price.
