Botuline Toxine

Botulinum Toxin, a widely used treatment for wrinkles and muscle relaxation, is often referred to by various brand names. There are now many other brands available on the market.

The toxin causes a temporary blockage between a nerve and a muscle after injection, causing the muscle to relax. This effect can be used very well in the treatment of wrinkles caused by muscle movements such as the frown lines, the forehead lines and the crow's feet. In addition, muscle relaxation can be used to reduce a gummy smile, pulling pits in the chin or helping to lift the eyebrows or nose tip.

You don't immediately see the effect of a toxin treatment. After a few days the effect starts to become visible and is optimal after about two weeks. This does not mean that the best possible effect on wrinkles has already arisen. Multiple treatments may be necessary to further improve the effect.

It is usually necessary to repeat the treatment after about three months. Although we see in many of our clients that with repeated treatments we can slowly increase the intervals to around six months.

In our clinic we choose to treat exclusively with Bocouture®. This is namely the only toxin with only the active substance without complexing proteins, so that we see as few adverse effects as possible (such as immunity) after a treatment

Fillers

Fillers are products that are injected to restore volume, improve proportions and contours or soften lines. These products are only based on natural, biodegradable ingredients. Results achieved with fillers will therefore always be temporary.

Most fillers that we use are based on the body's own hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid has the property of integrating nicely into one's own tissue, helping with hydration and being well tolerated by the body. A result achieved with a hyaluronic acid filler is visible immediately after the treatment, but often becomes more beautiful in the first two weeks.

The result is usually visible between six and eighteen months. This depends in particular on the location where the filler is placed, lifestyle, age and the product used. The doctor treating you can certainly tell you more about it.

A second option is to use a biostimulator, for example based on calcium hydroxy apatite (CaHA). CaHA also occurs in the body and is therefore well accepted. A biostimulator stimulates the body to produce more collagen and elastin, so that not only volume, but also skin improvement is visible.

In our clinic we only use filler products from renowned brands such as Belotero, Aliaxin, and Radiesse. All these products have more than proven their safety and effectiveness in recent years.

Profhilo®

Profhilo® is a product based on 100% natural hyaluronic acid. The basis of the Profhilo® effect is called bioremodeling. The hyaluronic acid stimulates the body's own cells (such as the fibroblasts) to produce more collagen and elastin. This results in firmer, more radiant skin and even gives a lifting and volumizing effect!

The hyaluronic acid is applied by means of a very thin needle just below the skin at ten different locations in the face. The treatment is carried out within a few minutes and gives little chance of swelling or bruising. You can also simply do everything again immediately after the treatment. A few bumps will be visible in the face and / or neck for a few hours.

If it is the first treatment, the treatment is repeated again after four weeks. This gives the optimum stimulation of the tissue and thus the best result. During the period you will notice slow improvement, but you will see the best result one month after the second session.

Wherever the skin can or has become weaker it is possible to perform a treatment with Profhilo®. Think of the face, neck, upper arms, décolleté and / or hands.

To maintain the result, it is recommended to repeat a single treatment once every six to twelve months.
