What is Botox?
Botox is the brand name for botulinum toxin, which has been used safely for decades in both the medical and cosmetic worlds. It temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for expression lines, such as frown lines, crow’s feet or a high forehead. This softens existing wrinkles and prevents them from becoming deeper.
In the right hands, such as those of cosmetic doctor Dr Vogelpoel, Botox produces natural results. No frozen face or exaggerated facial expressions, just a fresher version of yourself.
What exactly does Botox do?
Botox temporarily blocks the transmission of signals between nerves and muscles. This causes the muscles to contract less, making the skin above them smoother. It is particularly effective on dynamic wrinkles – wrinkles caused by movement, such as:
- Frown lines (between the eyebrows)
- Forehead wrinkles
- Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
- Bunny lines (on the nose)
- Gummy smile (too much gum visible when smiling)
What does the treatment involve?
A Botox treatment at Mommy Skincare Clinic is quick, almost painless and requires no recovery time. You can even squeeze it in during a busy working day.
- Intake & advice
During a personal consultation, we will discuss your wishes. Together, we will look at which areas can be treated for the most beautiful and natural results. - Treatment
We use an ultra-thin needle to inject the Botox into the right places. This only takes a few minutes. Anaesthesia is not necessary, but can be used if you prefer. - Back to normal straight away
After the treatment, you can continue with your day as normal. The only thing you need to avoid is exercise or lying down for the first few hours afterwards.
When will you see results?
The first effects of Botox are visible after about 3 to 5 days, but the final result is visible after about 2 weeks. Your skin will look smoother, fresher and more relaxed – without losing your facial expressions. The results last for an average of 3 to 4 months. After that, you can safely repeat the treatment.
Natural results, always
At Mommy Skincare Clinic, a natural look is always paramount. We love a subtle difference, not a tightened face. Our specialists are carefully trained and experienced in the correct dosage of Botox, so you can still smile, frown or look surprised, but without those annoying lines.
Is Botox safe?
Yes, absolutely. Botox has been on the market for over 40 years and is one of the most researched and safest cosmetic treatments. Side effects are rare and usually mild, such as slight redness or a small bruise at the injection site. At Mommy Skincare Clinic, we work exclusively with our own cosmetic doctor and use the highest quality Botox.
Who is Botox suitable for?
