Botox injections are done more often in the forehead because wrinkles appear in this area earlier than in other areas of the face. The frontal mouse actively participates in facial expressions, constantly being involved in the process of raising the air. That is why even young patients often develop deep wrinkles in this area, adding several years of age and spoiling the aesthetic appearance. Injections of botulinum toxin, which block a specific protein that acts on the contraction of muscle tissue, will help get rid of the problem. As a result, it is possible to achieve temporary muscle paralysis and smooth out wrinkles.
Cosmetologists at the International Hemostasis Clinic use high-quality, proven, certified drugs for the procedure, guaranteeing high quality and no side effects. After the procedure, age-related changes are corrected, and the habit of not frowning on the forehead and eyebrows is reinforced. After a while, botulinum toxin will leave the body on its own without causing harm or complications.
Botox between the eyebrows
Botulinum toxin, like any other drugs based on it, do not have a direct effect on the folds and wrinkles themselves. The substance does not fill them like fillers, does not smooth or stretch the skin. Here the mechanism of action is different. The injected drug blocks muscle tissue, the contraction of which becomes the main cause of the formation of deep folds and creases. Since the location of these muscles and the places where wrinkles form are constant, the number and depth of folds gradually increases, which makes the face visually older and gloomier.
When the muscle tissues, the activity of which leads to the formation of folds on the skin, are relaxed and do not contract for a long time, such wrinkles do not appear, and the wrinkles either smooth out on their own or disappear due to the regeneration of epidermal cells.
Relaxation of muscle fibers is the main goal of Botox. After injection, the drug disrupts the transmission of nerve impulses in neuromuscular structures, as a result of which the forehead stops wrinkling even when trying to do so intentionally. Visible changes after botulinum toxin injections are observed after a few weeks. If age-related changes are pronounced, then botulinum therapy itself will not bring the desired results. In this case, you will have to resort to additional rejuvenating techniques - peelings, biorevitalization, lifting, etc.

Combination of Botox and fillers
Today there are several ways to combat wrinkles. The most common of these are Botox injections and hyaluronic acid fillers. These two drugs have different mechanisms of action, so it is impossible to say which is better and which is worse:
1. Botox, as already mentioned, can only cope with facial wrinkles. That is, with those that are formed as a result of muscle activity. This remedy is not able to eliminate deep age wrinkles, eliminate birth defects, etc. Botox works on the muscle, not the skin.
2. Hyaluronic acid fills gaps under the skin. The drug retains moisture, nourishing all layers of the dermis, while it does not have any effect on the functioning of the facial muscles.
The appropriateness of using a particular drug is determined by the doctor. Both Botox and hyaluronic acid can be used quite often. At the first stage, botulinum toxin injections are used, which reduce the tone of the muscles responsible for the appearance of wrinkles. After some time, fillers can be injected under the skin. With their help, large static wrinkles are eliminated.

Age-related changes in the forehead
Age-related deformations of the forehead skin will make the face look older, tired, and gloomy. The lines of the eyebrows gradually shift, which leads to the formation of swelling on the eyelids. Aging affects all soft tissue structures, causing atrophy of subcutaneous tissue, dehydration, and deformation of muscle fibers. As a result, parallel and horizontal folds and creases form on the forehead, which spoil the appearance.
Wrinkles on the forehead appear for various reasons:
- decreased production of collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid;
- increased emotionality, accompanied by active facial expressions;
- abuse of bad habits such as cigarettes, alcoholic beverages;
- excessive physical activity;
- aggressive effects of ultraviolet rays, sudden changes in temperature, wind and other negative external factors;
- dehydration of the body;
- sudden weight changes;
- unfavorable environmental conditions;
- hereditary predisposition.
For some people, the first wrinkles on the forehead appear at the age of 25–30 years. After 30, folds become more pronounced; by 40–45, deep creases form on the skin, which cause displacement of the eyelids and drooping of the outer corners of the eyes.
What is Eyebrow Botox?
Botox for eyebrows is a cosmetic procedure for hairs to change their appearance and internal condition. The effect is achieved by enriching the hair with useful components.
The components of the product may vary depending on the manufacturer, but usually it is:
- waterproofed keratin . Waterproofed means broken down into small molecules. The final size of the substance allows it to penetrate into the deep layers of the hair, and not act only externally;
- hyaluronic acid – moisturizing component;
- collagen and glycerin . They participate in the restoration of hair structure and also have a protective effect.
It is in the composition that the main difference between Botox and lamination lies - Botox has a more internal effect, while the entire lamination procedure pursues an exclusively visual result. Thanks to the hyaluronic acid in the composition, the hairs are moisturized, and collagen and glycerin additionally protect them from external influences.
Due to the main purpose of Botox - internal improvement of the eyebrows, the result from the procedure may not be as pronounced as from lamination, so girls often prefer the latter.
Systematic eyebrow botox:
- improves the condition of hairs - they become more hydrated and stronger;
- starts the process of hair growth by stimulating the hair follicles;
- increases the thickness of the eyebrows.
As for pricing policy, eyebrow botox is usually more expensive than lamination due to the use of an additional composition, but cheaper than collagenation. Eyebrow collagenation is a new procedure that we wrote about in a separate article.
Indications for the procedure:
- weakened thin hairs;
- hair with increased dryness and brittleness;
- slow growth and insufficient density.
Indications for the use of Botox on the forehead
Botox in the area between the eyebrows is prescribed to patients who have pronounced deep horizontal and vertical wrinkles localized on the bridge of the nose. Indications for botulinum therapy are:
- horizontal creases in the forehead;
- facial asymmetry;
- crow's feet.
Preparations based on botulinum toxin are successfully used to correct facial asymmetry in patients aged 18 years. The procedure will help correct visible defects and restore proportionality and an attractive appearance to the face.
Preparation for the procedure
To get the maximum effect and consolidate the results of botulinum therapy, you need to properly prepare for the procedure. Therefore, first, a consultation is scheduled with a doctor who will conduct an initial examination, ask you to tense various facial muscles, and depict frequently repeated emotions. These manipulations will help assess the depth of wrinkles and the severity of age-related changes.
Since there are contraindications to Botox injections, a comprehensive diagnostic examination is prescribed to exclude or confirm them. If everything is fine with health, the specialist sets a date and time for therapy.
The preparation does not end there. 1.5 - 2 weeks before botulinum therapy, it is advisable to adhere to the following rules:
- stop taking medications that affect blood viscosity;
- limit physical activity;
- go on a gentle diet, excluding spicy, fatty, salty, fried foods, fast food, and alcoholic drinks from the menu;
- Avoid tanning, visiting the solarium, swimming pool, bathhouse, sauna.
Compatibility of Botox with other procedures
As practice shows, the effect of botulinum toxin injections increases significantly if you combine it with preparations with hyaluronic acid. So, first, facial wrinkles are corrected with Botox, after which other facial irregularities are eliminated with fillers. By the way, both procedures can be performed in one session. However, this requires a very highly qualified cosmetologist.
One month before injections and for the same period after them, you should avoid any aggressive procedures such as peelings and plastic surgery.
Hardware techniques that restore connections between muscle fibers and nerve endings, such as magnetotherapy, microcurrents, galvanotherapy, ultrasound therapy or electrical stimulation, can significantly reduce the effect of botulinum therapy.
Drug manufacturers
The price of Botox injections to the forehead is determined taking into account the manufacturer of the drugs. The high-quality composition does not cause side effects, allergic reactions or other complications. Among the most popular and popular drugs are the following:
- Botox. Created by Allergan (USA). After administration, it relaxes the muscles by disrupting nerve conduction. The results last for about 6 months.
- Botulax. Produced by a South Korean cosmetology company. The drug is considered one of the most effective, safe, and is used for all parts of the face.
- Dysport. The drug was created by a French brand and is popular among patients and professional cosmetologists. The results of anti-aging therapy last for 4.5 – 5 months, the risks of side effects are minimized.
Botulinum therapy: correction of facial wrinkles
As a result of expressing emotions, the facial muscles are in a state of overstrain and wrinkles appear between them, which are visible during the process of facial expressions - these are facial wrinkles . Later, such wrinkles are visible without movement - static wrinkles .

To prevent superficial wrinkles from developing into other stages (medium-deep and deep) and, for example, the forehead from becoming like a washboard, it is necessary to relax the muscles using botulinum toxin injections.
What is Botox or Dysport?
The drugs Botox, Dysport, Xeomin are botulinum toxins or muscle relaxants. They have one task - to relax overstrained facial muscles by temporarily blocking nerve impulses.
What are botulinum toxins?
Today you can find a large number of these drugs: Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, Relatox, Lantox, Refinex, Botulax. They are used in various branches of medicine: cosmetology, neurology, ophthalmology, etc.
Botox is one of the first botulinum oxins, which was approved for use in 1989. Therefore, its name has become a household name. It is now approved for use in all countries of the world.
Dysport is one of the most popular botulinum toxins due to its relatively low cost per unit.
Xeomin is rightfully considered one of the most purified botulinum toxins from foreign proteins. It is used when the body develops resistance to other botulinxins.
In our clinic we use them, as they are the most famous and safest.
Which areas can be adjusted?
The following areas are subject to correction: forehead, area between the eyebrows, area around the eyes, nose area, nasolabial folds, wrinkles in the mouth area (purse-string), longitudinal wrinkles in the neck area.
Please note that if you have already formed deep wrinkles (creases), you must first relax them with botulinum toxin, and only then fill them with filler.

How is the botulinum therapy procedure performed?
During the consultation, the cosmetologist reveals that there are no contraindications to botulinum therapy.
Next, you lie down on the couch to apply the markings. The doctor asks you to make certain facial movements and marks the injection points for the drug with a cosmetic pencil. After this, the number of botulinum toxin units required for each zone is calculated.
After treating the skin with an antiseptic, a strictly defined number of units of botulinum toxin is injected into each targeted point using an insulin syringe. The procedure is completely painless, so no anesthesia is required.
When will I see the effect of Botox/Dysport and how long will it last?
You will feel the first effect of botulinum toxin injection after 3-4 days. The final effect will appear after 14 days.
On average, the effect of Botox, Dysport or Xeomin will last for 4-6 months. After which the procedure will need to be repeated.
Is there an addiction effect to botulinum toxin?
There is no addictive effect. On the contrary, since our muscles have a “memory effect,” we simply wean ourselves from actively using facial expressions. Therefore, botulinum toxins have a cumulative effect.
If you decide to stop using Botox, your skin will simply return to its original state.
What to do if botulinum toxin does not work?
According to statistics, 5% of people are not sensitive to botulinum toxins at all.
If at the beginning there was an effect, for example, from Dysport, but then injections of Dysport or Botox stopped working, then we are talking about the development of resistance in our immune system to botulinum toxin. What to do in this case?
We recommend avoiding Botox or Dysport injections for 9-12 months. And then switch to Xeomin.
What determines the price of correction of facial wrinkles?
Approximate number of botulinum toxin units:
Botox: forehead area - 8-15 units, area between the eyebrows - 9-15 units, area around the verbs - 12-15 units, wrinkles on the nose - 5-8 units, wrinkles in the forehead area - 2-5 units.
Dysport: forehead area - 20-30 units, area between the eyebrows - 30-40 units, area around the verbs - 30-50 units, wrinkles on the nose - 10-15 units, wrinkles in the forehead area - 5-10 units.
Xeomin: forehead area - 10-20 units, area between the eyebrows - 16-25 units, area around the verbs - 14-25 units, wrinkles on the nose - 5-10 units, wrinkles in the forehead area - 5-10 units.
To calculate the approximate cost of correcting facial wrinkles, we multiply the cost of botulinum toxin per unit by the approximate number of units. This is an approximate cost; the final figure will be given to you during your consultation.

Are botulinum toxins harmful?
Botulinum toxins have been used in cosmetology for about 30 years. During this time, no cases of harm to health were identified. We are talking about temporary side effects that patients sometimes experience, such as headache, drooping eyelids, asymmetry, etc. Side effects in most cases occur due to the fault of unqualified personnel.
Cosmetologists regularly attend various educational and scientific events on the use of botulinum toxins. And such cases are not allowed.
Contraindications to the use of botulinum toxins
- Pregnancy and lactation period
- Individual intolerance to components
- Oncology

Do they put botulinum toxins on the lips?
Quite often our cosmetologists hear the phrases: “Pump Botox into my lips!”
Botox is not used on lips to make them bigger!
With Botox you can turn your lips around and correct asymmetry. This will not affect their volume in any way.
To enlarge lips, fillers based on hyaluronic acid are used.

Botulinum toxin and lamination: feasibility
Application of the active component without lamination – minimal effect. Recommendations: simultaneous use. Effective nutrition of the structure – rapid improvement of quality indicators. First results - the period depends on the characteristics of the skin. A noticeable effect is using lamination.
Experienced cosmetologists recommend combining cosmetic procedures. Rapidly enhances the visual effect, improves health, relieves fatigue, and restores damaged cells. Carrying out:
- Visual examination, comprehensive diagnostics - exclude contraindications.
- Initial removal of existing makeup.
- Degreasing the surface to be treated.
- Effective correction of the primary shape.
- Use of active components for lamination. Preparation of the solution.
- Applying the initial layer. Pronounced loosening effect.
- Exposure – 10 minutes.
- Removing excess nutritional components. Using a napkin or cotton pad.
- Reapply the second layer. Formation of shine.
- Exposure 8 minutes. Removing residues with a damp cloth, soft towel, or cotton pad.
- Eyebrow tinting. Preliminary agreement with an experienced cosmetologist.
- Application of the active component botulinum toxin type A.
- Application of the third layer containing the medicinal substance. Recording of achieved results, quick visual effects. Automatic flake closing.
The difference between botulinum toxin and lamination is the effect of the first drug on the damaged areas from the inside. The second is to add visual appeal and quickly visualize the effect.
Healing period
Rehabilitation after Botox injections in the forehead takes an average of 2 – 3 days. During this period, it is advisable to follow these simple recovery rules:
- Give your facial skin peace. Do not rub, scratch, or expose the treated areas to heat.
- Try to maintain an upright position, sleep on your back with a high pillow under your head.
- Avoid eating salty, spicy, fatty foods that cause swelling.
- Wash with purified water and soft, hypoallergenic foam.
- Avoid heavy physical activity, alcohol, cigarettes and other bad habits.
For a month after injections, you should not resort to peeling procedures, facial massage, scrubbing, hardware or physiotherapy procedures. During the rehabilitation period, it is necessary to regularly use care products prescribed by a cosmetologist.
Precautionary measures
Like any other injection cosmetological rejuvenating technique, botulinum therapy has a list of contraindications, ignoring which is fraught with serious consequences. Botox injections are not prescribed to patients diagnosed with the following diseases:
- acute infectious diseases accompanied by general poor health, high temperature, fever;
- oncological neoplasms;
- herpes in the active stage;
- exacerbation of chronic diseases;
- cardiovascular disorders;
- cardiac, renal, liver failure;
- diseases of the hematopoietic system;
- autoimmune, hormonal, endocrine, nervous disorders;
- congenital or acquired immunodeficiency;
- damage to the integrity of the skin in places where injections are supposed to be given;
- diabetes.
Botulinum toxin injections are not prescribed for pregnant women, breastfeeding women, or during menstruation. The procedure is contraindicated for patients who are forced to constantly take medications that affect blood viscosity. Also, botulinum therapy is not carried out if a person has an individual intolerance to the components of the drug.
What to do before and after the procedure
Despite the fact that Botox injections do not harm the body, there are still a number of conditions when such procedures should not be performed. Such contraindications include:
1. Taking certain medications, for example, antibiotics or microcoagulants. If the client has undergone drug treatment, then Botox injections are allowed no earlier than 2-3 weeks after stopping the medication.
2. Myasthenia gravis. This neurological disease is characterized by muscle weakness, most often observed in the eye area.
3. Hemophilia. With this disease, even microtraumas can lead to bleeding, and extensive hematomas will form at the injection site.
4. Chronic diseases that have become acute, obstructive pulmonary pathologies, wounds and inflammatory processes at the sites where the drug is supposed to be administered. The procedure can only be performed after complete recovery.
The reason for refusing the procedure is pregnancy and lactation, alcohol and cigarette abuse.
Additionally, Botox is not used to treat wrinkles in clients who have had botulism. Their body becomes insensitive to this toxin, which means that the injections will not bring the desired result. At the first meeting, the doctor must find out whether the client has any contraindications. If a person is healthy, does not take any medications and does not have individual intolerance to individual components of the drug, then a date for the procedure can be set.
After the “beauty injections” some restrictions will apply. You can't lie down for the first few hours. If the body is in a horizontal position, the toxin, under the influence of gravity, can paralyze the wrong muscles.
The effect of Botox injections becomes noticeable the next day after its administration, but the recovery period lasts much longer.
For two weeks, you should limit your intake of alcohol, fatty and spicy foods; it is also not recommended to visit swimming pools, beaches, solariums and saunas.
Botulinum toxin injections can be combined with other cosmetic procedures, but a break must be taken between them.
Advantages and disadvantages
The main advantages of the technique are:
- disappearance of pronounced facial wrinkles;
- correction of facial proportions;
- painlessness, safety;
- short period of rehabilitation;
- botulinum toxin is eliminated from the body naturally;
- the habit of not frowning on the upper part of the face becomes established.
The main disadvantage of the procedure is the short-term effect and the occurrence of an addictive effect. If injections are performed regularly, the immune system produces substances. Which neutralize the paralytic effect of Botox, so each subsequent time the results will be less noticeable.
