The reduction in the tone of certain facial muscles then makes it possible to reduce expression lines, rejuvenate the eyes and reduce the sagging of the lower face and neck. Botox has been authorized in France since 1990 to treat certain diseases linked to muscle contracture in ophthalmology and neurology. Its use in the treatment of wrinkles is old, but it was legalized in 2003.<\/p>\n<h2>What areas of the face to treat with Botox?<\/h2>\n<p>Thanks to targeted injections of botulinum toxin, it is possible to significantly reduce wrinkles in the following areas:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Horizontal front pleats.<\/li>\n<li>Lines between the eyebrows and above the bridge of the nose.<\/li>\n<li>Crow&#039;s feet or wrinkles at the corners of the eyes.<\/li>\n<li>Sometimes around the mouth<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Open and rejuvenate the look with Botox<\/h2>\n<p>The years that pass are always noticed in the eyes, by the wrinkles and various changes that we note around the eye. The culprits are well known. At the level of the eyebrows there are elevator muscles (like the frontalis muscle), responsible for wrinkles in the forehead, and depressor muscles (orbicularis muscle for example) involved in crow&#039;s feet. To correct these effects, and to regain a harmonious and rejuvenated look, Dr. Desouches uses Botox injections with precise distribution at the level of the muscles involved in the gaze, particularly at the level of the orbicularis muscle.<\/p>\n<h2>Principle of Botox injections for the face<\/h2>\n<p>Injections are performed with a very fine needle for small amounts of Botox into the muscles of the areas to be treated. Generally the treatment of an area requires 3 to 5 injections in the various muscles concerned. They are practically painless. A numbing cream and cold compress are applied before Botox treatment to minimize the \u201cpinching\u201d sensation. The results are visible after a few days. During the first fifteen days, the effects on the face can be variable (even asymmetrical at certain times) then stabilize in the 3rd week. We are considering a possible touch-up at 4 weeks. The effects last approximately 5 to 6 months. With repeated injections, results tend to persist longer.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before Botox injections<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One week before the injection, it is recommended not to take medication that alters the fluidity of the blood (aspirin, anti-inflammatories, etc.) in order to reduce the risk of bruising.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>After the injections<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Avoid sleeping or lying down for a few hours after an injection.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid aspirin and anti-inflammatories.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid UV rays and alcohol intake for 24 hours.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid touching your face or massaging the injection sites for 2 to 3 days.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid any engaged physical activity for 2 to 3 days.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visible results after a few days, stabilized after 3 weeks.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Possible touch-up after 4 weeks. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Duration of effects approximately 5 to 6 months.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Contraindications<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Certain neuromuscular diseases such as myasthenia gravis or multiple sclerosis.<\/li>\n<li>Pregnancy and breastfeeding.<\/li>\n<li>Known hypersensitivity to botulinum neurotoxin or albumin.<\/li>\n<li>Treatment with aminoglycosides (antibiotics).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Side effects of Botox injections<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Redness or bruising at the injection sites.<\/li>\n<li>Sensitivity disorders with a feeling of muscle tension or fixity.<\/li>\n<li>Imperfections of correctable results during retouching at one month: persistence of fine lines, asymmetry, elevation of an eyebrow, mimicry disorders.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Complications of Botox<\/h2>\n<p>They are rare and transient, but can be troublesome:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Headache.<\/li>\n<li>Descent of the eyebrow or eyelid.<\/li>\n<li>Eye dryness.<\/li>\n<li>Mimicry disorders.<\/li>\n<li>Exceptionally: allergy, nausea, dizziness, fatigue, flu syndrome, dry skin or mouth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Price of Botox injections in Marseille<\/h2>\n<p>The price of Botox injections for a facial treatment is between \u20ac180 and \u20ac350 depending on the products used and the number of injections. Botox price, one bottle: \u20ac350 The cost results mainly from the price of Botulinum Toxin, because only high quality products are used to guarantee patient safety.
