Your wrinkles over time
What's changing & what we can do
Forehead wrinkles becoming increasingly visible
By raising your eyebrows repeatedly over the years, the horizontal forehead creases become more visible and remain present even when the face is at rest.
The lion's wrinkle that is becoming increasingly pronounced
Between the eyebrows, the lines become more pronounced with repeated contractions, giving your gaze a harsher or more preoccupied look.
Crow's feet more visible when smiling
Around the eyes, wrinkles become more pronounced over time and accentuate the appearance of fatigue in the upper face.
Bunny lines on the sides of the nose
Fine lines appear on the sides of the nose when you smile, laugh, or slightly wrinkle your face.
Wrinkles visible even at rest
Over time, lines initially only present during movement may remain visible even when the face is relaxed.
Upper face less fresh & less smooth
Skin aging and repeated muscle activity gradually accentuate expression lines on the forehead and around the eyes.
Targeted reduction of forehead wrinkles
Botulinum toxin can temporarily decrease the activity of the muscles responsible for horizontal wrinkles, resulting in a forehead that may appear visually smoother.
Softening of the frown lines
By reducing muscle activity between the eyebrows, the treatment can visually smooth this area and make the look less harsh.
Reduction of crow's feet
The fine lines at the corners of the eyes can appear less pronounced, resulting in a more rested look and a smile that seems lighter.
Reduction of bunny lines
Botulinum toxin can help relax the muscles responsible for these expression lines while maintaining a subtle and harmonious result.
Visible results in a few days
The change is generally gradual, with the effect most often appearing in the days following the session.
Temporary, not permanent effect
The results last on average a few months, allowing the treatment to be adapted to your face and your objective.
Treatment suitable for the upper face
Botulinum toxin is particularly relevant for areas related to repetitive muscle activity, such as the upper face.
A subtlety-focused approach
The goal is not to transform your features, but to soften the contractions responsible for expression lines, resulting in a look that is consistent with your face.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about botulinum toxin injections for expression lines
In accordance with Swiss legislation (LPTh, ODim/OPTh) and the guidelines of DSAS Vaud, botulinum toxin injections are medical procedures that must be carried out exclusively by a doctor or a qualified nurse under the direct supervision of a doctor.
Understanding botulinum toxin for wrinkles
What is botulinum toxin?
What is botulinum toxin?
Botulinum toxin is a purified protein used in cosmetic medicine to temporarily reduce certain expression lines.
In very small doses, it acts locally on targeted muscles to soften wrinkles caused by repeated facial movements, such as frowning or smiling.
How does botulinum toxin work on expression lines?
How does botulinum toxin work on expression lines?
Botulinum toxin temporarily reduces the activity of the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles.
When these muscles contract less strongly, the skin covering them wrinkles less, which helps to smooth or soften expression lines, particularly on the forehead, frown lines and crow's feet.
How does botulinum toxin work in the body?
How does botulinum toxin work in the body?
It acts at the junction between the nerve and the muscle by blocking certain nerve signals that cause muscle contraction.
The treated muscle therefore relaxes in a targeted and temporary manner, then activity gradually returns over time.
What is the exact composition of botulinum toxin used in aesthetics?
What is the exact composition of botulinum toxin used in aesthetics?
The active ingredient is a highly purified form of botulinum neurotoxin type A. It is formulated with stabilizing excipients (proteins and salts) suitable for sterile injection.
The dose used is extremely low, sufficient for a localized effect, well below systemic toxic levels.
Are botulinum toxin injections reversible?
Are botulinum toxin injections reversible?
Yes. The treatment is not permanent: the effect gradually fades over weeks and months, as neuromuscular transmission resumes and the muscle regains its activity.
Combining botulinum toxin with other treatments
Can botulinum toxin be combined with hyaluronic acid or other cosmetic treatments?
Can botulinum toxin be combined with hyaluronic acid or other cosmetic treatments?
Yes, botulinum toxin is often combined with other cosmetic treatments.
It can complement treatments aimed at volume, texture, radiance or skin quality, as it does not correct all signs of skin aging on its own.
What is the difference between botulinum toxin and other aesthetic treatments such as hyaluronic acid, Profhilo, mesolift or skin boosters?
What is the difference between botulinum toxin and other aesthetic treatments such as hyaluronic acid, Profhilo, mesolift or skin boosters?
Botulinum toxin relaxes an overactive muscle; it therefore primarily targets expression lines.
Hyaluronic acid acts more as a support or filling product, while mesolift and skin boosters aim to improve hydration, texture and skin quality, without acting in the same way on muscle contraction.
Indications & people affected by botulinum toxin for wrinkles
Why is botulinum toxin used?
Why is botulinum toxin used?
In aesthetics, botulinum toxin is used to reduce expression lines caused by repeated contractions of facial muscles.
It is particularly useful when wrinkles appear mainly during movements, such as frowning, raising the forehead or smiling.
For whom is botulinum toxin appropriate?
For whom is botulinum toxin appropriate?
Botulinum toxin is especially suitable for adults bothered by expression lines that are visible when moving, or already slightly marked at rest.
It is suitable when a medical examination confirms that the problem stems primarily from muscle activity and the patient's expectations are realistic.
Who should not receive botulinum toxin?
Who should not receive botulinum toxin?
The treatment is generally not indicated in cases of known allergy to any of the components, infection or inflammation on the area to be injected, certain neuromuscular disorders, or during pregnancy and breastfeeding as a precautionary measure.
Certain medical conditions or certain medications may also require postponing or adapting treatment.
Which areas of the face or body can be treated with botulinum toxin?
Which areas of the face or body can be treated with botulinum toxin?
For expression lines, the most commonly treated areas are the frown lines, the forehead, and crow's feet.
Depending on the indication and the analysis of the face, other areas may also be considered, and in medicine some applications also concern the neck or armpits.
What non-aesthetic conditions can be treated with botulinum toxin?
What non-aesthetic conditions can be treated with botulinum toxin?
Beyond wrinkles, botulinum toxin is also used for certain medical indications such as muscle spasms, excessive sweating, certain forms of chronic migraine, certain eye disorders or even certain bladder problems.
The indication always depends on a precise medical evaluation.
What is the difference between botulinum toxin and other cosmetic treatments like hyaluronic acid and skin boosters?
What is the difference between botulinum toxin and other cosmetic treatments like hyaluronic acid and skin boosters?
Botulinum toxin acts on the muscle to reduce expression lines.
Hyaluronic acid is mainly used to fill, support or restore volume, while skin boosters are more focused on skin hydration and improving skin quality rather than muscle relaxation.
Results, duration
& maintenance after a botulinum toxin injection
How many botulinum toxin sessions are needed for optimal results on expression lines?
How many botulinum toxin sessions are needed for optimal results on expression lines?
In most cases, a first session is sufficient to obtain the initial result sought.
The result is truly assessed after a few days to two weeks, then maintenance sessions are offered when the effect begins to diminish.
Can we expect very natural-looking results from botulinum toxin injections for expression lines?
Can we expect very natural-looking results from botulinum toxin injections for expression lines?
Yes. A well-chosen and properly dosed treatment aims to soften expression lines while maintaining a lively and harmonious expression.
The goal is not to freeze the face, but to reduce excessive muscle contraction.
How long does it take to see the results of a botulinum toxin injection for expression lines?
How long does it take to see the results of a botulinum toxin injection for expression lines?
The first effects appear 2 to 5 days after the injection, and the maximum effect is usually visible after 10 to 14 days.
How long do the results of a botulinum toxin injection for expression lines last?
How long do the results of a botulinum toxin injection for expression lines last?
The results last on average about 3 to 4 months, sometimes a little longer depending on the area treated, muscle activity and individual response.
Some patients experience effects for up to 5–6 months with an optimized dosage. The exact duration therefore varies from person to person.
How often do you need to repeat botulinum toxin injections for expression lines?
How often do you need to repeat botulinum toxin injections for expression lines?
In practice, the treatment is repeated when muscle mobility and wrinkles reappear, which often corresponds to a rhythm of a few months.
Most often it involves an interview lasting around 3 to 6 months, depending on the case.
Do repeated botulinum toxin injections for expression lines produce a more natural result?
Do repeated botulinum toxin injections for expression lines produce a more natural result?
Often, yes, when they are well spaced and well dosed. Over time, some muscles may become less dominant, which sometimes allows for a softer, more stable, and sometimes slightly longer-lasting result.
Is a botulinum toxin injection permanent?
Is a botulinum toxin injection permanent?
No. Botulinum toxin does not have a permanent effect on expression lines: the effect is temporary and fades gradually, which explains the need for maintenance if you wish to preserve the result.
Will I lose sensation in the areas injected with botulinum toxin?
Will I lose sensation in the areas injected with botulinum toxin?
No. Botulinum toxin acts on muscle contraction, not on skin sensitivity.
Therefore, you do not lose your ability to feel the treated area.
Is there a risk that my face will look frozen after botulinum toxin injections?
Is there a risk that my face will look frozen after botulinum toxin injections?
A frozen face is not the goal of a well-executed treatment.
When botulinum toxin is injected precisely and in a personalized way, it actually helps to preserve natural expressions while reducing wrinkles caused by excessive movement.
What happens if I stop my Botox maintenance sessions for expression lines?
What happens if I stop my Botox maintenance sessions for expression lines?
If you stop, your face won't suddenly "break down".
The muscles gradually return to their normal function and the wrinkles reappear according to their natural evolution, without any demonstrated rebound effect.
Procedure for a botulinum toxin session for wrinkles
Is a botulinum toxin injection painful?
Is a botulinum toxin injection painful?
Most patients experience little pain. The injections are given with a very fine needle, and the discomfort is usually brief, comparable to a small prick or a slight pinch.
What happens during the first consultation for botulinum toxin for expression lines?
What happens during the first consultation for botulinum toxin for expression lines?
The first consultation is used to verify that botulinum toxin is the most suitable treatment.
The doctor analyzes facial movements, the affected areas, your medical history, treatments already carried out, medications and supplements taken, as well as any possible contraindications before proposing a personalized plan.
What happens during a botulinum toxin injection session for wrinkles?
What happens during a botulinum toxin injection session for wrinkles?
After cleansing the skin and identifying the muscles to be treated, very small amounts of product are injected in a targeted manner into the intended areas.
The session is performed in a doctor's office, without incision, and the number of injection points depends on the area being treated and the desired result.
How long does a botulinum toxin injection session for wrinkles last?
How long does a botulinum toxin injection session for wrinkles last?
There is no single duration, as it depends on the number of areas, the number of injection points and the time spent on the medical examination.
In practice, it is usually a short appointment, often achievable in a single visit to the office.
Can multiple areas be treated at the same time during a botulinum toxin appointment for expression lines?
Can multiple areas be treated at the same time during a botulinum toxin appointment for expression lines?
Yes, it is entirely possible when the medical evaluation justifies it.
The treatment plan is then adjusted according to the size of the areas, muscle strength, facial balance and the desired result.
Safety, side effects & contraindications for botulinum toxin injections
What are the possible side effects after a botulinum toxin injection?
What are the possible side effects after a botulinum toxin injection?
The most frequent side effects are local and temporary: redness, slight swelling, tenderness, pain at the injection site, small bruise or sometimes headache.
More rarely, one may observe a drooping eyelid, temporary asymmetry, dry eye or other effects related to the diffusion of the product beyond the desired area.
You should consult a doctor promptly if you experience vision problems, difficulty speaking, swallowing or breathing, unusual muscle weakness, an allergic reaction, or any significant symptoms that appear within hours or days of treatment. These complications are rare, but they should be taken seriously.
Can this treatment be done if one is taking anticoagulants, aspirin or anti-inflammatories?
Can this treatment be done if one is taking anticoagulants, aspirin or anti-inflammatories?
It is essential to inform the doctor before treatment.
These medications can increase the risk of bleeding or bruising, and their eventual discontinuation should never be decided alone, but with the professional who prescribed them.
Is it safe to have botulinum toxin injections during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
Is it safe to have botulinum toxin injections during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
In practice, this treatment is generally not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding, especially for cosmetic purposes.
The main reason is insufficient security data, rather than clear evidence of a frequent risk.
Is there a risk of allergy or intolerance to botulinum toxin?
Is there a risk of allergy or intolerance to botulinum toxin?
Yes, but this risk is rare.
Hypersensitivity reactions have been reported, and a known allergy to any of the components is a contraindication to treatment.
Is there a recovery period or social downtime after botulinum toxin injections?
Is there a recovery period or social downtime after botulinum toxin injections?
Generally, no. Most patients resume their daily activities immediately after the session, although there may be slight redness, minor swelling, or a discreet bruise depending on the case.
Can I wear makeup after botulinum toxin injections?
Can I wear makeup after botulinum toxin injections?
Yes, generally makeup can be reapplied quickly after the session.
The important thing is to apply it gently, without rubbing or massaging the injected area.
Can I fly after having botulinum toxin injections?
Can I fly after having botulinum toxin injections?
Flying is not generally presented as a major contraindication after botulinum toxin injections.
The most consistent recommendations mainly concern not massaging the area, following the clinic's instructions, and being aware that slight redness or a small bruise can be more of a practical nuisance if you are travelling right after.
Can I have a facial massage, facial, peel, or laser treatment after a botulinum toxin injection?
Can I have a facial massage, facial, peel, or laser treatment after a botulinum toxin injection?
Right after the treatment, it is best to avoid any care that rubs, massages or strongly irritates the area, such as a facial massage or facial.
Peels, lasers and other treatments can be part of a combined plan, but their timing depends on the treatment performed, the area treated and the doctor's protocol.
